FS: Salsa Colossal 58cm + ENVE RD Disc fork. Steel & Carbon long distance rig. £400.

Great steel frame + possibly the best carbon forks = awesome long distance bike.

I think the brands Salsa and ENVE need no intro here, you know what you're getting. So let's talk about the condition of the frame and fork.

I've ridden this frame fork combo in a range of countries doing all sorts of rides in various builds. The latest was 1000K around Taiwan last November.

I'll do my best to highlight the scratches in the photos, but the main takeaway is that they are cosmetic and the bike itself has never been crashed, so everything is structurally sound and dent / crack free :)

no noticeable scratches at a short distance

yup, still good

zooming in, slight scuffs on fork resolving

BB and chainstays are surprisingly undamaged, but there are some disc rotor scratches from some slightly ham fisted rear wheel insertions

seatstays have chips to the paint where a pannier rack was rubbing, this is probably the worst damage on the bike

drive side seatstay has scratches down it from when the bike fell over whist leaning against a wall

dropouts have some surface rust, but no real scratches

closeups of the forks' scuffs and small chips. Nothing major.

So there you have it, not new, but not bad. It is a 58cm frame, Geo data here. Comes with the matching Salsa seat clamp and a GXP BB hat has some life left.

I'm looking for £450 for the lot.

Collection from London E15 (Olympic Velodrome area) or postage within Europe at buyers expense.

Very nice, like the colour scheme. Too big for me though. GLWS

Yup, the matching paintjob is pretty nice without being too shouty.

Here is a pic of someone else's more road race orientated build to get your imagination firing:

Hello,
what are the max clearances on 700c wheels please?

Max I ever ran were Schwalbe Pro1 tires: rear 30c, front 28c. So wide road slicks are fine, but you won't get a knobbly 32c CX tire in there.

bamp for £425
