I purchased this off eBay a few years ago where it was run as a winter trainer from new. It's mostly stock parts but I did make some changes. I replaced the wheels, tyres, rear cassette, seatpost, saddle and bottle cages and sorted out some wonky mudguards and added some flaps. I also completely replaced the brake and gear cables with Jagwire stuff. I think I may have put 100 miles on the thing since I did all the work about 3 years ago. Life changes are why I barely rode it and it has been inside my shed just taking up space. It's time to move it on.
Shifters, rear mech and brakes are a mix of various ages of Shimano 105 level stuff
SRAM cranks and cassette (12-28) so 10 speed
Shimano RS010 wheels with Vittoria Rubino tyres
Saddle is an old Fizik Pave
There are some small signs of surface rust near the rear axle but nothing serious. Paint is in otherwise OK shape.
It's a great bike that just works without being fancy. £250 moves the whole thing on.
Collect only from SE London.

FAQs for my sale:
Can you really do rules? - Yes, I can do this. I have been on this forum a long time which is why I made this list. It is preemptive and, trust me, this is the best use of both your time and mine.
Do I have to abide by the rules? - Yes but only for this particular sale. There are many other wonderful sales threads with wonderful bikes from wonderful people that have wonderfully different rules, so try those.
No. I'm not shipping it.
No. I'm not splitting it.
No. I would not take less than that. I pre-haggled with myself on your behalf and drove a hard bargain where you did pretty well. You should be pretty happy with that outcome. You're welcome.
No. There is no rule #6
No. I'm not getting Shimano part numbers for you
No. I'm not tracking who/when/what/queue order in the thread
No, I am not googling the geometry chart for you. You can do that and it will tell you many, many wonderful numeric things. Some of which may be meaningful to you.
Did you get my PM? - I am working full time still and doing lots of childcare so I do not have lots of free time to follow this thread, answer a ton of questions or respond to PMs within 5 seconds.
Is it still available? - When it is sold / gone I will update the thread and close it. If the thread is open please send me a PM.
