SOLD: Pearson Touche, Kinesis disc fork, 61cm

For sale is my Pearson Touche, I don't know the size except that it's larger than what was advertised/available on the Pearson website and geometry chart (story on the phone was it was the last from a batch made for British Rowing). Will put up some basic measurements tonight, but I'm happy to get out a tape measure for any requested measurements (of the bike).

• Fork : Kinesis disc
  
• Wheels: Front is Mavic Open Pro on Shimano Deore hub, rear is Halo Aerorage
  
• Brakes: BB7 on the front with a newish disc, Tektro on the back
  
• Finishing kit: Bullhorns, Deda stem, carbon seatpost (not Thomson as shown)
  
• Cranks: Either original 175mm 46t, or mismatched 165mm 48t Miche Primato

lol thats not a big frame, its a massive seatpost

Fingers crossed the frame is big, wouldn't be the first time I've ridden a "big" frame only to measure up and find out it wasn't.

All my bikes have amusing seatposts, only one that doesn't is a 64 and that has an amusing headtube.

Wow! How tall are you if I may ask...

Some frames the smaller they get, the bigger they look

6'7

Got out the tape measure, seat tube 61cm C-T, top tube 58cm C-C, head tube 16cm

Price drop, £340 ONO

Price drop, £320 ONO

Lovely but there's no way that's a 61. My 57 (from memory)

Fack, that's an amazing colour-way!

Nice.

Measured 61 from BB c to top of the seat tube. 57 might be C-C.

Yeah, I really shouldn't have sold it. Was stolen from the new owner as well.

Nooooo. Didn't know you'd sold it. I have a black one like @pjhobs has but a lot smaller.

They're great bikes - light, good handling, practical (the only OTP fixed bike which takes two brakes and two bottle cages). Very underrated so tend to be sold at bargain prices like this one!

Yeah - was always slightly too small for me but still loved it - did my longest ever ride at the time on it. Great bikes, GLWS @pjhobs

I see there's plenty of clearance at the front, but am curious about how big one could get on the rear?

Currently running 28s with guards. Internet says 32 without guards but it'll be tight, I've never tried.

Another drop, £300 ONO

Needs to go £280 ONO. Happy to split.

How much for just the frame?

Haven't thought about it, had a quick look but couldn't find any frames previously sold. Happy to take offers.

Anyone interested in other bits?

The fork, depending on price

No luck selling the frame, so another price drop!
