bargainous!

bargainous!

totally.

interested, although concerned 57ctc - 56tt may be a bit big - how tall are you?

im 6'3 and i feel its definitely too small for me, but there is plenty of adjustabilty in the seat pin which meant i could ride it ok. but i think the general consensus is that it would suit someone 5'11 to 6'1/2 i think.

I'll have it then please.... pm me how you'd prefer payment

653 frames are generally awesome in my experience

Cheers - can't wait to get my paws on it!

no worries all packed and ready for a bike trailer trip to the post office tomorrow! sold!
