For Sale: Holdsworth Elan & Litespeed Avior

Need a bit of cash to fund a new project so reluctantly up for sale are:

Early 80's elan, traditional 73deg parallel 531 Reynolds tubing, continental prugnat lugs. It has a six speed block and two chainrings, a mixture of nice Campy, Shimano, Modolo, Zeus Stronglight vintage kit. Mavic MA40's on small flange QR record hubs, mud guards. I'm keeping the Concor but there's a perfectly serviceable Icaselle on it. Exceptionally clean, only 2 or three small scratches. This was the pride and joy of an old boy from up Malvern way he had it from new and hardly used it.
I bought it in September and I myself have hardly used it apart from riding from Coast 2 Coast – Whitehaven to Newcastle where it rode faultlessly. You'll probably want to stick new tape, pedals and new tyres on it if you were planning on using it a lot, but it's lovely as is. It's 23″ CTC

£250

Litespeed Avior

Alu-Carbon Frame, extremely light and fast, full ultegra + FSA kit rides like a dream and wasn't serviced long ago. Ksyrium wheelset, conti triathlon tyres. Ideal for tri or fast road work, bar one cycling holiday in the Alps this has only seen a few dry miles and turbo trainer use - few little chips and scratches but nothing major, mainly from transporting. http://www.litespeed.com/bikes/2005/avior.aspx
Will check size when I get back tonight but I'm pretty sure it's a 55.

£750
I'm in Bristol so it will be postage (about £25) or I'm visiting friends in Chiswick on the 27th so could bring it to London then.

Love…
My first conversion was a Holdsworth Elan that looked exactly like that. Sigh. Beautiful frame.

Anyway, as you were… ;)
