Dawes Linear 653 (approx 1993 model)
Believe the geo is 56cm x 56cm but I will confirm. It fits me perfectly at 5'11ish but there is scope for adjustment either way. I will include a shorter quill stem in case the buyer wants to adjust the reach.
Spec:
Reynolds 653 steel tubing
10sp Dura Ace downtube shifters
105 rear derailleur
Original Shimano 600 brakes and crankset
Campagnolo Khamsin wheels (inc worn but still serviceable Michelin tyres)
Includes bottle cages and saddle but not pedals
Lovely bike and too nice to use as a commuter so selling it for something more basic. I honestly enjoy riding this bike more than my carbon one.
Has a couple of minor rust spots and some rubbing to the inner left seatstay which occurred before I replaced the dropout alignment screws. All OK now.
I'm after £350 for it and can provide pictures as needed. Based Manchester but travel from time to time. Not willing to post due to size/weight. This is NOT my bike, but it is the same paint scheme: https://www.flickr.com/photos/60734120@N02/sets/72157631369215052/
