I bought this bike off of the cycling UK forum about a year or so ago. After a year of riding and trying to get it to fit I have come to accept that it's too big for me. Over that time I've replaced a number of parts, including all the cables, bottom bracket, rear mech and added mudguards 6 months ago.
It made a fantastic audax/winter road bike and because it's made with oversized tubing it's very stiff.
Details:
64cm Rynolds 725 Frame, adapted for disc brakes by Argos. One very small difficult to notice ding in the top tube. Some paint chips and small areas of superficial damage. Paint is otherwise lovely and has a glitter sparkle in the sun.
Deda big logo stem - 100mm
FSA omega compact drops - 42cm
Cane Creek Forty Headset - bearings replaced 6 months ago
Avid BB7 mechanical disc brakes with new pads and compressionless brake cabling (<6 months old)
105 Triple shifters 10sp
Deorde triple crankset
105 Front & rear mechs (rear mech brand new)
Thomson in line post
mudguards - quite tight with 25c tyres but perfectly workable
Shimano wheels, very slight play in freehub
Brand new/recently replaced durano folding 25c tyres. It can fit 28c without guards.
Recently replaced 10sp shimano chain
Brand new bottom bracket
Pedals not included, happy to include a cheap specialised saddle if wished.
I'm also based in Bristol - 550£ collected. Geometry sheet attached below.
