SOLD: Specialized Langster (Black) 56cm

Posted on
  • I’ll try and keep this long story short. I used to live in London and regularly lurked on the the forum (my profile is long gone and / or forgotten).

    I now live in Berlin, but came back last year to cover maternity leave and was gagging to get back riding in town.

    So, I wanted to buy something relatively cheap and cheerful and I’d always hankered after a Langster. Picked one up on ebay.

    Fast forward a few months and everything goes into lockdown, my (with hindsight) ridiculous travelling halts and I have a bike on the other side of the channel.

    It’s a waste and I’d like to see it used. It’s fun.

    More important stuff…

    Bike was picked up stock, it’s a 56”. It has a few scrapes as you’d expect, but no dings or rust (except on the odd bolt). In fact it looks pretty tidy and rides well.

    I immediately switched out the bars for some on-ones (as I am old and creaky), obviously replaced the levers, added new cables and some cheap clip-less pedals.

    After a couple of months I added new tyres and raceblade longs as I’d forgotten how dirty those gutters were.

    Just this month I had Brockley Bikes give it a once over. They replaced the rear pads.

    The bike is currently with Brockley Bikes, so any appointments need to be arranged with them.
    Just message me if interested and I’ll supply details.

    I appreciate most folk wouldn’t want to buy without a look, but I would ask that we keep it to serious interest only. They’re operating under pretty tight COVID guidelines, swamped with work and assisting essential workers with their transport.

    I’ve put the price at what I think reasonable, based on going prices on here and ebay and considering it has pretty much new tyres, guards, cables, etc. and has just been serviced (which covers over half the asking price), but if you think I’m way off let me know.

    So yeh, ideally I’d like £300.

    Donation to the forum on sale of course.

  • Oh, just to be clear, BB are friends of mine and just holding and selling the bike for me.

  • Okay, not much interest at all in this... so let's try a price drop bump. £280 ONO.

  • Just replied. Sorry for missing your message.
