Genesis Volare 853 for sale
I procured this and rebuilt it for a friend - his furlow didn't end happily so now selling on his behalf.
Ridden a handful of times (3 rides tops?).
2 purchase options on offer:
1) Complete bike £950
2) Frame, fork, headset £425
No other splits/options thanks.
• Frame is the Di2 compatible Volare 853 in 'Large'. Mint-ish, barely a mark on it (1 small ship I can see). As shown in photos, saddle height 77cm, setback 6cm, reach to bars 53cm, but plenty of scope either side of that.
• Chorus 11s groupset with 175mm cranks (which were new), 50/34 compact, the inner ring is NOS Super Record. New cables throughout.
• Fulcrum Racing-3 wheels in excellent condition, bearings smooth, true, no measurable wear to rims. Can be de-stickered fairly easily. New Vittoria Corsa 25c tyres, you could get 28s in easily. 12-27 Chorus cassette, new KMC chain.
• Bit of a mix on finishing kit - Deda RHM-01 bars, TransX 100mm stem, EC90 carbon seatpost, original saddle, similar to Fabric (not one in photos). New Fizik bar tape. Elite bottle cages.
Available to view/collect from London/ SE1 near Waterloo - not keen on shipping due to time constraints and definitely UK only whatever. Collection beats shipping for now.
