Weary traveller! Stop and rest a while. I have for your viewing delight a noble steed.
My husband, bless his silly cotton socks, bought this almost two years ago to the day. Direct and complete from Planet X. Brand new. In that time he's ridden it maybe four, definitely no more than five, times. It's been moved about the house and jostled around with other (also sadly neglected but moving swiftly on) bikes and frankly just collected dust for two years.
It's a Planet X "Tempest" titanium gravel bike in medium and it's lovely. Honestly, no complaints. Very light, very smooth ride. But the time has come.

It's got a few buffs on the TI which I've tried to capture from eg. being up against another bike and idling for 6 months at a time, but no dings or anything serious like that. Zero crash history. Your biggest problem is likely to be dust - I tried to clean it but we live somewhere quite rural so it was... a challenge.
Complete except for the pedals! It's £1999 new, I'm looking for £1200. I'm in Somerset, I can get to Bristol easily, I can get to London if you buy me a bag of Haribo. If you absolutely must, I can ship it at your expense but I'd rather not. I'm not going to split it so please don't ask.
