I am very sad to be selling my Bombtrack Needle due to lack of space in my new flat for 2+ bikes.
Never seen another one on the road in London and have always got people ask about it when I have been out and about.
Original cost was £800 and it's only had very light use since I got it a year ago. All the paperwork is still with it.
There is a scratch on the seat post in one of the pictures when I hadn't tightened it enough and it slid down. A few bits of cosmetic scuffing in the frame but nothing noticeable.
I have added chain tensioners which are a great improvement, only really used it for some cardio training and for 1/2 mile trips round town so in near perfect condition. Fliflop hub has a Sturmy Archer Freewheel on it so can easily be switched to Singlespeed in minutes.
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

It's a great machine and I wish I could keep it.
