The Bike
Genesis 58cm, 853 steel equilibirum.
Originally constructed by @Alb (Albinder)
Lovely steel frame, and I have done the Paris-Roubaix sportive on this with @Mikey5000, @sasmon, @truli and @dave4 would have been there but for a significant campagnolo issue.
It is a perfect winter bike - it comes with mudguards or for turbo trainer use.
Currently has 28c - on it, and with the mudguards I don't think you can do wider.
Condition
It has always been kept inside, but it has a marks and scratches consistent with winter use.
Cassette and chain are in decent condition; wheels are likely in need of replacement and I'm sure someone smarter than me can do something with those ultegra hubs if you need new wheels.
2 new Gravelking tyres on it.
Price
£250 for all that you see.
£100 donation to the forum on sale.
If you want just the frame and forks, you get the wheels to take home.
I think the price reflects that I'm not splitting or posting.
Location
I'm in the City (EC4M) during the week, so this is hopefully convenient for most.
Sizing
58cm effective top tube. I don't have the sizing chart, but for reference I am 6'2" with a 33'' inside leg. Alb had a longer stem on it than I ride, and even though I have ridden it lots, it is probably a little too big for me. It comes with the stubby stem.
You can insert your own long limbed torso gags here.
