Bowman Palace:R 54 w/ 105 & Spin Wheels

Posted on
  • Selling my race bike. It’s not getting used and it’s taking up space. Looking for £800.

    Spec:

    • Bowman Palace:R 54cm Frameset + 2x spare derailleur hangers. Steerer is pretty slammed
    • Shimano 105 11-speed Groupset - 172.5mm, 52/36 crankset, 11/28 cassette, shiny metal jockey wheels. Life left in the chain/cassette
    • Deda Zero100 finishing kit. Carbon seat post, 130mm -7 stem, 380mm bars. Have a 120mm stem of the same model I could swap out
    • Spin 60mm wheelset, tubeless ready but set up with tubes + lots of spare brake pads for ceramic coated rims. Can provide long tubeless valves.
    • Conti 5000 25mm tires, loads of life left
    • Fabric line saddle
    • Shimano SPD-SL pedals

    Condition is well used. I’ve ridden and raced this bike for 5 years. It’s done in excess of 13,000km. Specifics:

    • Frame has got some scratches, cable rub, and one noteworthy ding in the top tube from where I dropped it in year 1 of ownership but has never shown any signs of worsening. Tried my best to capture this in a photo.
    • Front-wheel has a slight bulge in the rim which causes the brake to stick a little. More irritating than an actual performance issue. Using the Spin brand brake pads has helped.

    Would be an ideal bike for anyone wanting to get into crit/road racing, but not wanting to drop insane money/risk their Sunday best. Impressive palmarès include top 20 finish at London Nocturne, top 4 finish at Crystal Palace, and multiple podiums at the Brixton CC hill climb. This could be you.

    Pick up from SE27. Thanks

  • Not had much interest so far. Price drop to £700

    Let me know if you've got any questions. Ta

  • Hey, any chance you’d consider selling just the frame set?

    Cheers
