After many years of happy service with me it's time to pass this along. I wont go into its full history here, but here's the thread detailing it's life with me. Hopefully the new owner will enjoy it as much as me. I had the forks custom made to match the same geo as the old ones after some cunt reversed a car into them. I had the frame checked at the time, but it was undamaged.
To get it ready for sale, I've given it a deep clean, and a total service; so you'll be problem free for the future.
Spec's are:
Frame - Mystery Maker (see original thread) 62cm ctc seat tube, 60cm ctc top tube. Powder Coated in super sparkle silver. Zeus Dropouts, good tight DT clearance without toeoverlap, room for 28c tyres, maybe bigger if you want.
Forks - Custom Made By Rusby Cycles, Ritchey crown and fork ends, Reynolds 631 blades. Drilled. (It's worth pointing out that they just have surface rust. I've been careful to wipe them down with WD40, there is no pitting or flaking. A stiff wire brush will have them shiny in no time, or get them painted for a flawless finish)
Headset - BBB Sealed Bearing (head tube was faced before fitting)
Bottom Bracket - Shimano UN55 (aka basically indestructible)
Cranks - Mavic 631 Starfish with 52t Mavic chainring (Will include a 48t if I can find it)
Chain - Wipperman ConneX
Front Wheel - Halo Aero Warrior 24mm wide rim (some marks from brake useage), stainless spokes & Halo Hub (will include a new spare set of bearing incase they ever need a change).
Rear Wheel - Halo Aero Warrior 24mm wide rim, stainless spokes, Converted Shimano XT M756 hub, for ISO Cogs, 20t currently installed. (more Info in this thread about why this is better than stupid lock rings), I will also include several spare cogs. Also Inc. Nitto NJS chain tug.
Tyres - 25c gator front, 25c gator hardshell rear (Almost new only used for maybe 50km)
Seatpost / Saddle - Brand X Inline, Cannondale Saddle
Stem - 3t (120mm)
Bars - Nitto B260AA
Grips / Bar ends - Proper team grips (actually comfortable without gloves, unlike ODI). ODI bar ends.
Bell - Brass Crane (Made in Japan, basically NJS, ding ding guijin)
As you can see the frame has some small scuffs and scratches but nothing serious, there is a small ding on the NDS of the headtube, but being a steel frame, this is purely cosmetic.
PRICE - £400
Viewings / collection - N19
Pedals aren't included, but if you're really desperate for them we can talk. Also If you need a brake fitted, let me know, I still have the one I used to use with matching super sparkle silver cable 😎.
