Road Bike 58cm

Posted on
  • Hi all looking for my first road bike to give it a try, mainly commuting or weekend rides, just wondered if anyone has a 58cm size bike they are looking to sell.

  • I am selling this complete bike which might be of interest for you.

    Columbus Thron frame, 58cm seat tube ctc, 57cm top tube ctc.
    Sachs New Success / Rival 7000 groupset (2x7 speeds).
    Wheels are 36h Maillard hubs on Mavic Open 4CD clincher rims.

    Purchased brand new from Cycles Decroix (17 rue Charles de Gaulle, 80800 Corbie, France . Tel : +33 0322483693) in the mid 90's by the original owner who has sadly passed away.

    I have paid 100€ for the full bike last December - mainly bought it for the saddle, which I have already sold. I picked it up on my drive home and brought it back to London at the end of January (I live in Stoke Newington).

    The bike is lugged Columbus Thron, the lugs are quite nice so I would not be surprised if the frameset was actually italian-made and only had the Decroix stickers applied. It has a small dent on the underside of the top tube, which happened when they unhooked the bike from the garage ceiling to take photos to sell it.

    Anyway - it needs a good clean, degrease, polish, regrease. At least new tyres and bar tape. Chain if you are picky.

    Sachs New Success / Rival 7000 was top of the Sachs-Huret range in the early to mid 90's before SRAM bought the brand (and all associated patents) and killed it.

    I would like a crispy 100€ note. But I would take the pound equivalent too, that's £95 thanks to Brexit.

    I am changing the tyres of the Look bike behind from yellow to black so I can also give you decent tyres to fit.
    I also have some new marble bar tape that you can have and a 7 speed chain thats done minimal mileage so it would be a great runner with a little work.

  • Thanks mate but I was looking for something abit newer that I can just get on and ride

  • When it stops raining in South Wales I was going to put my 2014 Specialized TriCross Elite.
    I bought it from a guy who bought it new and never used it and I have ridden it about twice but my circumstances have changed so I've no longer any need for it.
    I I know it's not a road bike but is a perfect commuter that is capable of crunching some miles on too.
    It's 9sp Tiagra and spec'd with Avid cable discs.
    I can even supply a rack for commuting duties.
    It is immaculate.
    If you're interested let me know and I'll sort out some pics.
    I'd like £350 for it.

  • Thanks mate but I already have a crosstrail and am looking for a road bike

  • You have a budget?

  • Hi,

    I have this I have been asked to sell.

    Virtually unused as the owner prefers his "roadified" mountain bike

    Size 54 cm ,semi sloping geometry which should suit a rider 5' 7" - 6' 2" or as Nigel Farage prefers to say 175-183 cm

    The cheapest I can find online is here

    Although we paid full price for this one After £190 O.N.O

    I have Brand new light set and used mudguards that can go with it if needed.
    The earlier model gets good reviews below, and this updated model is very similar.

    Based in Wembly,can bring it to work at Kings Cross easily

    Test rides/tyre kicking welcome

  • Thanks Mate but looking for a 58cm really,

    budget £2-300 depending on spec/condition

  • O.K but bare in mind a lot of "modern" frames are semi sloping geometry, the bike above for instance is set up for a 5'10. rider.

    Good luck.

  • I have this for sale, a very nice Concorde Colombo, 58 cm, Shimano 500, great condition, ready to ride.
