FS: Kinesis Racelight 4S frameset

Consolidating the above into one bike.

54cm Kinesis Racelight 4S. Previous model with the option to run disc or rim brakes. I had it set up with TRP RG957s and it easily cleared a 32mm tyre. Some minor paint bubbling around BB and mudguard mounts. Includes FSA headset and seatclamp.

Collection from Derbyshire welcome.

Nice deals. Kinesis is an excellent frame.

Interested in the Rourke - Do you have any photos of it in its current state? Is the steerer straight 1 1/8, or is it tapered (looks to be straight)? Is it TIG'd or brazed (Im assuming TIG'd, but seat stay/toptube interface is confusing me - hard to tell from photos)? How old is the Futura fork?

Thanks!

Steerer is indeed 1 1/8. I think it’s TIG’d with the signature Rourke wraparound stays. Forks were purchased on here from @jono84 . They’ve been professionally painted royal blue and then rattle-canned black. I've put about 4000km on them but I don't think they'd been used much before that.

I’ll try and get some photos up this evening.

The rourke seems cheap. GLWS.

Paint isn’t as bad as I remember. Obviously the seat stays are a mess where the brake bridge was moved but could be masked off and polished back to bare stainless. Bit of rub on the top tube and a few chips.

What does the Rourke weigh?

Undibs, slightly too big for me. GLWS

Rourke sold.

Does the 4S steerer extend all the way above the stem, thus necessitating the 10mm spacer, or is the spacer just for aesthetics?

Yes it does.
