650B low trail Oak Cycles French style randonner bike

Selling my old Oak Cycles audax bike, must have had over 50,000km on it.

53cm top tube
57cm seat tube

73 degree head and seat angle.

255mm bottom bracket drop.

The short top tube is to run a normal length stem and long reach handlebar.

The set up is similar to a 385mm reach bicycle with a short reach handlebar and 100mm stem for reference point.

stack is roughly 590mm.

Chris King headset
10 speed 11-32t with a 48/34 cassette, indexed shifting, not worn out at all and plenty of life.
Son dynamo front wheel, front and rear light internally routed through the frames (rear light on seat tube)
Compass (now Rene Herse) centerpull brakes.

Saddle not includes.

I'm asking £750, it's a low price but only cause it does need a bit of work to restore it, the wheels' braking surface are showing sight of wear.

Includes load of photo, collecting only from Catford please.

@Maj this is an opportunity of a lifetime

whats the thing with jones bars?

Such a nice bike, I enjoyed re-reading the build thread earlier this week.

Good luck with the sale.

Stellar bike, short tt is super attractive , probably should go to someone who’d actually put another 50k on it!

Glws

that's a hellofalot of bike for someone for 750£

What's the standover height?

I wish I was taller, lived in Catford, and had room for another bike.

PM’d

Are you saying the stack and reach is 590 mm 38.5 mm?

Dear @JahTim … buy this Oak bike frame … because … !

Yes please! I would love to buy this for my son. Have been on the lookout for something special for him. Will PM now.

Edit: never mind , got tube lengths mixed up

57cm seat tube C-T or C-C?

This is sold pending, there will be another bike nearly identical but higher spec than this one coming up soon.

Rats! If any circumstance that buyer isn’t happy please sell it on to me :-)
I’ll join the queue for part 2

This is sold however this is still available and way better than the Oaks;
