FS: Ladies mixte bike - Lotus head badge

Posted on
  • Selling my GF's bike that never really got ridden and need space in the garage and she needs the money.

    Frame was bought as a fully refurbished one from the shop that was in the same space as Cloud 9 on Store Street. Built up with good nice bits at a local bike shop which I've tried to list fully below. Has had a good clean today and is generally in good condition. Looking for £600.

    Shimano Deore hubs built with Mavic OpenPros
    Brookes ladies saddle - not broken in.
    Schwalbe Durano Plus London tyres
    Nitto bars
    Nitto stem
    Generic seatpost - seem to remember this being an odd size.
    Sturmey Archer cranks with chain guide protector thing.
    Stronglight headset.
    Suntour shifter mounted in end of bars.
    Tiagra rear mech - 9 Spd.
    Rear rack
    Shimano brake levers
    A nice bell
    Nice bar tape - I forget the person who did it.

    Tape measure says 550mm / 55cm from nose of saddle to bars.

    Can send a Dropbox link of more pics to anyone interested.

    NOW SOLD. 09.06.2020

  • Still for sale and reduced to £500.

  • It’s a nice enough bike but considering the average/non-period correct parts and presumably non-original finish it’s realistically worth more like £2-300 on here as buyers tend to be quite discerning, especially with stuff like this(see mixte thread). A bike is rarely worth close to the sum of its parts sadly.
    Ebay/gumtree might be worth a punt for what you want for it.
    If you split it for parts you might get closer to your asking price than complete.

  • I do agree with the above. If your sold the saddle separately and put something cheap on you could easily get £300 for this (and ~£50 for the saddle) - in fact i know someone who might be interested in the bike at that price - but £500 is too much I'm afraid...

  • I'd take it off you for 300!

  • PM sent!

  • yeah completely agree. Just trying to recoup some of the costs. Frame was 300 + all new bits and hardly ridden. But then that's bikes.

  • will take this off you for £300!

  • That's very generous of you. If you can get to 450 then you're welcome to it.

  • SOLD

    May it bring you many happy miles on it.
