I'm selling my steel Croix de Fer 725 touring / gravel bike, fully kitted out and ready for adventure. I got the bike second hand few years back for a trip that didn't happen in the end and the bike spent most of the time stored inside our smoke and pet free apartment.
There is a new sp pd8 dynamo hooked up to front and rear light, dynamo is great but the light are sometimes moody and decide not to work. When they do, It's great!
New Avid Bb7 Road brakes with new pads and fairly new shimano rotors.
New Schwalbe Marathon tyres on solid exal wheels.
Tortec pannier rack and two sets of Ortlieb bags (black used, but like new and red unused and new) if you add front pannier racks you can have loads of storage.
Sram Apex brifters and Sram x9 rear mech, right brifter has the shifting cable coming loose a bit but works fine, it is noticeable when changing the cables. Eventually when changing gear it will need replacing.
Topeak Modula XL bottle cage for holding large amounts of water on long trips. Can hold up to 2L of water and you can use regular soda bottles. I have two of these and can add the second one as a freebie.
The frame tubing is covered partially in helitape to stop any scrathes and bruises, few of these are actually covered by the tape. This gives the frame some extra protection when locking the bike etc.
The bike is on Bike Register and will be transferred to the new owner when sold.
All in all a great, solid bike that just really wamts to get muddy outside and needs an owner that will take good care of it.
I'm only selling in person so that you can see what you're buying. Bank / PayPal transfers only, no cash. Happy to taky more pictures if something isn't clear and happy to answer any questions.
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >
Mention another user by @username
For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:
```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
