This will be the second time I've sold all of my fixed bikes and components and I'll probably regret it since I keep coming back to fixed. Bike was originally bought with the intention of having a go at time trials with a single gear. I liked that the fork was drilled and previous owner did a good job.
The idea behind hollowtech cranks was so that I could use my stages power meter on the bike as well. The USE track chainring allows a straight chain line with road cranks and supposedly is more stiffer.
In a perfect world somebody would buy everything but split seems to work better on here.
2013 Frameset, Stealth paint, only Spesh logo is on headtube. Frame has its fair share of scars, worst is probably inside of the chain stay where I managed to drop the chain. Bottom bracket shell may need chasing as installing bb didn't feel smooth as usual. Drawing on the fork but I will wash it off. Fork drilled for brake. Lower headset bearing needs replacing.
Seatpost is from J&L. Not sure what happened with the old seat post, it was a copy of the original but kept slipping so was being held in place with a inner tube shim. This looked a bit dodgy when I first took a look and eventually a crack did form despite using a torque wrench and a ton of carbon paste, it has now been replaced with a new seat post, albeit not original but definitely not slipping, hasn't even been ridden yet.
Cranks - Shimano Ultegra 6600 172.5mm - £30
Great condition for age, will include original 53/39 rings
Chainring - 52T USE Track 130bcd - £40
Discontinued and hard to come by now. Plenty of life left on teeth but there is a crack on one of the mounting tabs, there are two tabs that fit either side the cranks so it shouldn't be too much of a problem. I have made sure not to tighten it too much.
BB - Shimano Hollowtech 2 -Either 105 or 9000 can't remember - £5 or free with cranks
Chain - Izumi Standard - £10
cut for 52/14 not sure how many links that is. I can count if you want.
Sprocket - Dura Ace 14T - £10
Bars - China Special - £90
I wanted bars with risers as I wasn't sure on fit. I bought these for £100 whilst I had an amazon prime trial going. They looked similar to the PDQ bars (£250) / Hong Fu HB029 (~£150 on aliexpress?) Construction seems fine but I'm not sure about the extension clamping on the carbon, maybe I would use alloy extensions. Been used for 2 time trials anyway.
Stem - Deda Quattro 90mm - £5
Saddle - Selle SMP T3 - £80 or trade for a white Composit :)
Comfy but don't like leather or the fact that it says Triathlon
Wheelset - Corima Aero Tubular / Corima Disc £280 or £130 front / £150 rear
Rear wheel is a corima disc, it is out of true and has a small weight stuck on the non drive side but I could barely tell when riding. Front wheel is a 12 spoke Corima Aero for road but with bolt on skewer, if you don't mind removing the tub and regluing then this needs truing.
or Mavic Open Pro T 32h on Hope Hubs, Gatorskin Tubs £100
Front has been braked on slightly.
Not pictured:
Brake Levers - SRAM TT500 - £40
Ultegra 6700 Front Brake - £15
Also have a few 1/8 sprockets from 15 - 19T available
Examples of Complete Build:
Fixed TT - As pictured + brake + levers £800
Track Pursuit - As pictured £760
Track - Mavic Tubular wheels, can supply some drop bars too. £580
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
