For Sale: Bat Pro - Columbus SLX - 600 STI group - 55cm

SOLD, SOLD, SOLD

Dibs then PM please.

£250 collected from Kent ME12 or £10 extra for postage. Paypal gift, bank transfer or MoneyBookers.

Very nice looking Batavus Professional with Columbus SLX tubing. Cinelli aero bottom bracket shell, pantographing, Campag ends and those lovely shaped Batavus forks.

The bad thing about the frame is the paint. From a distance it looks good but up close you can see numerous scratches and whatever you do never turn this bike over in public! I don't know how it has got like it (perhaps an unpadded cycle carrier?) but the paint has been removed under the top tube and behind the headtube, the pump pin which was behind the headtube also appears to have vanished! It's all pictured so you know exactly what you're getting.

The groupset is Shimano 600 Ultegra 8 speed STI apart from a Stronglight Delta chainset. Everything is working fine and not in too bad condition apart from the tired STI shifters which have quite a bit of wear although still work fine.

Wheels are lovely and whilst in the stand would spin forever.

All in all a top quality bike which has seen better days, that said a respray and it'll be back again although like I said above it looks good from a distance (or in the dark)

I've probably made it sound worse than what it is in which case you maybe pleasantly surprised! If you can view it then all the better.

nice bike with great spec and fair price! would be tempted if hadn't already spent all my money on bike parts,
Good luck with the sale

Thanks. If the paint and STI's were better it'd be £150 - £200 more so quite a bargain in my opinion...

An ex-girlfriend once said the same about me

Indecently well priced....How do you find 'em Tel!....bargain for someone.

I'd snap this up if i wasn't mid bike build. Bargin!

haha! Well you don't have to stand quite so far away for this to look good! ;)

I expect you're pining for another Bat Pro after selling yours!? This one is made from Columbus SLX too...

This is better. Give up with your build and buy this, it'll be cheaper in the long run.

Seriously (yes that was my attempt at humour) thanks for the comments guys.

Believe me Tel...if [a] i had £250 spare and [b] My wife would not object big time about me having a 3rd bike...then i would snap it up...mega pronto!

bargain! Best of Batavus for ever.

Buy yourself a lamp and ride in the evening. That must feel great on a quality bike like this.

^haha!! There you go thats the solution; Work the nightshift? Then this is the bike for you! Shame the Dulwich Dynamo has gone...

Really it's not that bad.

Last day on here before I start advertising elsewhere.

Meritorious of a bump, me thinks....virtual give away price.

I can't believe this hasn't gone yet!!!
