Hi All, I know Foffa is basically a swear word on LFGSS, but my clear out must continue and up next is my Foffa Prima Premium Edition which was bought new in 2012.
This was actually my first FS/SS bike and I bought it before realising the merits of fixie conversions. In my eagerness I went and spanked £675 on this configuration which in hindsight was pricey, but this earlier example was one with the better quality TIG welded double butted Maxway made Cr-Mo 4130 frameset, the limited edition chrome fork, and I opted for nicer finishing kit including the Brooks B17 Narrow saddle and Deda track drops wrapped in Fizik tape etc, as well as the deep section chrome wheels.
Anyway the bike is in really good nick as it hasn't seen many miles, cosmetically its in very good clean condition and mechanically it's A1. The frame is 52cm C-T and current stem is short'ish at 80mm.
Apologies for not posting photos of the actual bike, I will do as soon as it's stops raining outdoors, but the photo below is basically identical with my bike except I opted for the chrome fork, my wheelset is also the chrome deep section version with a 16T freewheel and 16T cog fitted and I recently reinstalled both callipers, although the front rim has never seen a brake.
The bike's in London E14, I'd like £350 for it, but if I'm way off please say and contact me with any offers, cheers and Happy New Year!
