For Sale: Boardman Comp SC Fixed Gear road / outdoor track bike - 54cm - New and unridden

SOLD

[strike]
I acquired this, but haven't got round to riding it and need to make room in my shed. By buying it from me you avoid dealing with Halfords (I could write a few pages on this but won't bore you). Anyway I've adjusted it so that it won't fall apart / kill you when you ride it, and you get it for GBP 400 instead of 500.

My own view is that it's a really nice aluminium frame with lots of shaped tubes, nice simple paint job and good bits. Unlike many other bikes in this price range it comes with tyres that cost more than 2p, mavic rims etc. As far as I could see no corners cut. Excellent VFM, even better at this price. Size 54cm, so suits approximately averagely sized blokes.

You could ride it fixed / free or road / track (outdoors) or with brakes / without... pretty much any way you like.

The catch? There is none. Well, only that you need to pick the bike up from darkest Dulwich, and that you're not taking a test ride until you pay for it as I'd rather keep it new and unridden unless you buy it. Happy to help you adjust it though so that you can ride away happy into the sunset (if you pick it up around 4pm, with lights of course)

why not just return it to halfords for a bike that fits?

It does fit me. I'm selling it because I've got lots of other bikes and never got round to riding this one. All I'm saying is that they're mad to call it a Small.

Now £375 from £350?

You could ride it fixed / free or road / track (outdoors) or with brakes / without... For example you could commute on it, then at the weekend you could unbolt the brakes and take a spin round Hearne Hill track.

I'm not usually one to shit on peoples sale threads but, unless HH is very much more relaxed about track worthiness of bikes than any of the velodromes I've been to then this bike won't get near the boards, the dropouts are the wrong way around.

I'd like to say I'm shocked that they even put this bike out with forward facing dropouts rather than track ends but I'm not.

Now £375 from £350?

this is good.

inflation maybe?

rent for taking up space in the shed??

unless I'm mistaken,forward facing dropouts are permitted, braze ons for cable routing, and fitted brake levers however are not.

in the case of this commuter bike, forward facing makes the removal of wheels with mudguards fitted much easier.

Yeah, when I googled it and saw that Halfords simply branded it as a road bike it made more sense.

I stand to be corrected on the dropout thing but I'm pretty sure that Meadowbank and Manchester at least are track end only.

Don't create 4 threads for the same bike.
