    Lovely little koga Road Winner Luxe with mainly Shimano 600 Arabesque, argueably one of Shimano's prettiest groups.

    Size is 50cm (ct) x 52cm (cc) and tubing is Double butted Tange Champion with Hi-Manga forks. It really is a cracking little bike. It has a couple of little pitfuls though unfortunately well only one really - in the top of the top tube it has had a hole drilled which was used to hold a lock. It is a neat clean hole and it is uder the brake cable. I was going to put some black or white PVC tape over it to make the bike a little more attractive (after picturing it of course) but I'd rather leave it uncovered so you can see exactly what you're getting.

    Other than that the frame has a few scratches and chips to the paint (plus a postcode inscribed between gear levers and some yellowing around the bb area) and the stickers are not perfect either but is structually sound i.e no dents or dings and looks good from a couple of paces back. I've painted quite a bad picture but like I said it does look ok.

    The bike is fitted with risers as it is all I have at the moment. All works very well and looks fine in my opinion.

    I'd like £180 posted.
    If it had the original brakes and drops and slightly better condition paint I'd be asking about £250+ so it truly is a bargain, especially considering how much work I've put into it!

  • Bloody lovely mate, i'm too too tempted to get it for mah gurl.

  • Tel, I can't get hold of my mate so I am going to undibs as I see you have other interested parties... :(
    I am sorely tempted to have it and transfer all the bits onto my Koga frame and then sell it on frame only but I think this little beauty, being so hard to find in this size, should be kept as it is and riden by a small person :)
    Cheers for holding, and good luck with sale.

  • 2nd dibs
    how tall do you reckon the ridder should be

  • Ok Wired but I would have waited...

    As it stands dibs goes to:
    tepoztlan
    bradertan
    pm'er

    Just a note that I missed from my ad I like to have dibs and pm so it is easier for me and everyone else to keep track, I also think it is the fairest "system"

    Anyway. My daughter at 5'3" and my wife at 5'4" are both comfotable on this (you guys nearly lost this to my daughter) with the saddle set at the height in the pics. Standover height is 76cm (approx 30").

    Oh and the toe clips are Christophe.
