FS: Rourke 653 55cm x 55cm (project bike) SOLD

I am selling my old Rourke 653 frame. It’s not been used in a couple of years but with some TLC someone can enjoy it as much as I did!

Listing this as a project bike for two reasons:

• The bottom bracket needs re-tapped as the non-drive side was cross-threaded after a service (pictured)… A local bike shop should be able to sort this. If you wanted to replace it, I’ve spoken to Winston at Varohna Frameworks (https://www.varonha.co.uk/) who’s said that he can replace the BB. I can vouch for his work as he replaced a toptube on another Rourke of mine and the finished result is honestly flawless.
  
• It needs some parts of the groupset (brake callipers, new chain and potentially new bb + cups). Also needs new headset bearings which I can supply.
  
  

I’m selling with:

• Campagnolo Athena crankset
  
• Campagnolo Athena front + rear derailleurs
  
• Campagnolo Athena carbon shifters
  
• H+Sons TB14 rims on Ambrosio hubs (bought from Kinoko).
  
  

Looking for £250 £175 as I need the space and would rather someone that has the resources can get this thing rolling again.

Collection from SE15.
