Carbonda CFR 505 Gravel Frameset £Free

Don’t get too excited, some significant paint chips and scuffs, primarily from a dropped chain and the fork leg meeting the face of a table leg in a van while moving 3 years ago.

Also the front derallieur cable stop has been widened slightly to allow a di2 cable through, so if running mechanical you’ll need to put a new cable stop in to mate with the gear cable sheath.

Hence the free to the forum/donation if your feeling charitable.

Size 54 (Medium) see geo chart attached. Includes nearly new bottom bracket good for shimano cranks, and seat clamp.

Can run electronic or mechanical, hydaraulic obvs.

The custom paint has held up really well, white speckle on black gloss for the win.

Plenty of mounting points for general gravel or bike packing.

Would be good for dipping the toe in the water of gravel riding, I used it mainly for commuting and a bit of gravel.

Can easily 42mm rubber etc etc

Pickup Catford please. Posting isn’t an option.

If Chak doesn’t snatch it I have a friend who needs a bike and I have enough ratty parts to get this mobile.

Can collect

@Chak has it, awaiting pickup

Do you mind me asking if you originally ordered it straight from Carbonda and if so how much was it and were there any headaches getting it?

Hey so from memory it’s was about $500 dollars plus $100 for the custom paint.
Was actually pretty straightforward, lots of correspondence back and forwards in good English. Took a while to arrive maybe a couple of weeks but got here in the end. Was really happy it tbh and at the time was great value for money, no idea what the current equivalent would cost though.

Cheers. That’s helpful to know. Still not sure if I want to get one over just getting a whole new bike, but something to add to my thinking.

Gone! Hope your bro enjoys it @Chak
