FS: Elephant NFE Custom Grav/Monster/Touring Dreambike

Selling my Elephant NFE as a full build.
Astonishingly good gravel bike, tourer, monstercross, commuter, you name it.
Originally belonged to edscoble, rebuilt by me with the best components I could think of for the job.
Dynamo system, hydro-actuated brakes, faultless XTR-Dura Ace shifting, all there.
Extremely fun ride unloaded and low-trail geometry suits front loading perfectly for tours.
Reason for sale: ongoing COVID-induced loss of work.

Price is £950 for everything you see in the pictures, minus saddle, pedals, cages, and light.
Also including a set of stainless mudguards custom adapted for the bike (not photographed).
Prefer pickup in N London, could post if it comes to it. Payment via Paypal G+S.

Damn that's sexy. Sorry you have to part with it.
If I wouldn't have more bikes than space and it was a tad taller I'd be all over it.

Wonderful.

Thought it was a 54cm for a second - would have jumped on first dibs.

An awesome bike. Am I right in reading from the geo that the stack is 595mm and the reach 364mm?

Exactly my size, if I didn't have a frame with this exact geo waiting to be built up I would have been very tempted.

Sad times. Lovely bike for someone. GLWS

Out of curiosity, what size human would this fit? Hoping you get some work coming in soon, platypus.

PM’d you - very interested but need posting

someone buy this and lets go bikepacking in the summer.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words.
Regarding all the height questions, it's set up for me in the pictures at 6ft, non-aggressive position, with plenty of space either way for adjustment for taller or shorter folk.
I have two dibs for pickup and two dibs for postage in already, will contact everyone now.

Sold. Thanks all.
