Just purchased a new (to me), fast, winter bike, so this trusted steed is for sale £800 OVNO.
This bike has been with me (from new) since 2015, it has done very few miles but those miles have been some of the best. I've built this frame as everything from a winter chaingang to a monster-cross bike. It's always been well cared for, and it shows in my opinion.
Current build is:
62cm Surly Cross Check frameset in 'beef gravy' (yes, it's called that)
HPlus archetype rims paired to DT Swiss 350 hubs (aka gods own hubs)
10 speed Shimano Ultegra 6700 groupset (175 compact cranks)
TRP CX9 rim brakes (the most powerful rim brake in existence)
Canyon VCLS seatpost
Ritchey classic bars and stem
Specialised Romin Evo saddle
Portland Design Works metal mudguards
Challenge Strade Biancha tyres (brown-wall, 36c)
I'm also including, for the tourer in you:
Tubus tara 'lowrider' front rack
2x Brooks (by Ortleib) front panniers
This listing is for complete bike only with rack and panniers, if i need to split I may cannibalise/spare part bin.
Bike is with me in Shrewsbury, happy to travel to Birmingham, Bath or perhaps London if the opportunity arises. Happy to post at cost to seller also.
Temporary photos which I'll replace with nicer on the next sunny day:
