• I'm selling a bike I took a long time to restore and convert from an road bike to a town bike.
    The frame was resprayed by Armourtex. I added a few new parts to a lot of original parts that could be re-used incl. the wheels (steel rim).
    The frame has a 52cm seat tube CTC, and 56cm top tube.
    It's in immaculate condition, and ready to roll. Sadly it's only done about 10 or so miles since the completion of this project, and I need to make room for another one, therefore it has to go, and hopefully to a good home.

    Viewing possible in South London.

    Now fitted with 130mm 3TTT stem for the slightly taller riders out there [than me].

  • You've done a nice job, but £350 is a lot of cash given what your frame is wearing.

  • and it's posted on retrobike which is against them pesky rules...

  • £350 is nuts.

    It doesn't look like a particularly special frame either. Pressed steel dropouts usually means sub-531 no?

  • I'm open to reasonable offers. And even if beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, I do think this is a very beautiful bike and it's not going for 100 pounds. ;)

  • I really need the space and the bike has got to go. Looking at £200 neg.

    The bike has just been recabled throughout.
    The hammered V.O. mudguards are no longer available.

  • it's not going for 100 pounds. ;)

  • As a rule of thumb, re-sprays and time spent ‘restoring’ are basically non-billable when it comes to flipping a bike.

  • I appreciate the feedback, but you make it sound like I might get more money by breaking it up - and I've already stripped it twice :(

  • A wee bit more than £100 would be nice for sure.
    :)

  • You might will get more money by breaking it up.

  • Big price drop - as I'm getting desperate lol.

    Would consider selling this as a rolling chassis+ for £100.
    That's f&f, bb, headset, complete drive train and wheels/cassette.

    Not including:
    Pedals, tyres, all finishing kit.

  • Hey, potential dibs, pm coming your way, complicated offer.

  • I hope not too complicated.
