Complete Hewitt Track Rat for Sale 54cm

Posted on
  • I'm selling my Hewitt track bike for sale. I bought it from @runcible_rakan about a year about and have been riding it for the last 11 months or so. It's been absolutely brilliant, really restored my love of cycling, but I have space for one bike only and I have bought a more practical commuter, so this has to go.

    In the original thread @Uoeno asked for first dibs, so I'm tagging you just in case you'd still like it.
    Sorry for the crap pictures, I only had my phone and it was starting to rain.

    The original thread is here: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/267626/ and nothing much has changed. For sale with original forks as well as the carbon forks still attached.

    Currently set up like this:

    -Hewitt Alu track frame 54cm x 57.5cm 120 track drop outs
    -Halo Aerotrack wheels, quite old with some scuffing and scratches, ran with a front brake for a while but the last 4 months brakeless, still in good shape and spinning well, these wheels are very tough - 19t rear cog
    -Gumwall Halo Twin Rail courier front 24mm width, okay condition, one or two cuts, will pick out any debris and superglue
    -Vittoria Rubino 23mm used and skidded but no cuts and still in decent nick
    -Stronglight Track 2000 crankset 48th
    -Cinelli pepper bars with beaten up oury grips
    -Black Deda Zero 2 stem 120mm

    Chain, inner tubes, seatpost are all no name but work fine, seatpost is a few weeks old.
    Bottom bracket, head set and seatpost clamp as per original ad, headset in particular could do with replacing but works fine as is

    I need the saddle, so this will come with a white beaten up but functional turbo
    I have given it a good clean but the plastic coating of the frame is very scuffed and chipped in some places, but as far as I can tell everything is still in good structural condition.

    I think that's everything. This frame is immensely fun and quick, all the components may show their age but are in great working condition, and the frame is a great rat ready to go.

    I'd like £300, though I've never sold a complete bike before so please let me know if you feel this is off. I would really prefer not to split, though I'd consider it if I could find a buyer for everything. If someones buys the complete bike I'll cycle it to your door and drop it off, within reason.
    Frame is in N1, top of Essex Road at junction with Balls Pond

  • Thanks for the heads up man, unfortunately can't afford anymore projects - good price and a nice frame, should go quick

    Cheers,

  • I have the same frame, but different branding!
    Nimble little frames, good deal.

  • Hello, interested only for the frame if you split.

  • Thanks Olarry, if I decide to split I'll let you know.

  • hello! do u still have it? and what about international shipping?

  • Where abouts you located boss and how tall are ya? Usually ride 54 square so just trying to work out the fit.

  • Hi @xkalyanx still available but no international shipping, sorry.

    @jiffyam I'm N1 at the top of Essex Road. I'm about 5"10, the frame is an unusual shape because it has a long seat tube but shorter top tube, which is why I ran it with a long stem. It fit me well, but I had difficulty using drops. You're welcome to give it a spin if you'd like

  • Wicked I'll message you.

  • Sold + Payment sent!

  • This frame = fun
