For Sale: Reynolds 853 Donohue track bike, with loads of njs niceness

Update: As painful as it is I am going to consider the breaking of this, if enough of the parts get taken. Prices below for individual parts.

A great track bike, very stiff and light thanks to the Reynolds 853 steel, and njs components. You can lay down some serious power without this british and Japanese steel seeming to notice! The frame and forks were powder coated by Armourtex with a lovely sparkling silver and in near perfect condition.

What you get:

Paul Donohue Reynolds 853 track frame 55cm seat tube and 55cm top tube (very nice tight clearances!!) with Dura Ace 7410 njs Headset £280
Sugino 75 njs Cranks and chainring and Sugino 75 njs Bottom Bracket £140.......... DIBS Varanen
Nitto njs Jaguar stem £45.......... DIBS azelkhazaani
Nitto 123 njs Cr-Mo Bars £35.......... DIBS azelkhazaani
Kashimax 5 Gold FG8Ps njs saddle £30
Nitto's NJSP72 (Jaguar) seatpost with njs 30mm rail spacing £55
MKS Custom Nuevo pedals the njs sealed bearing model, with MKS njs clips and MKS Alpha njs double suede straps £70....... DIBS Varanen
Of course an Izumi gold and black 1/8 njs stamped chain £20.....DIBS Varanen
Campagnolo Record pista large flange hubs with Nisi Lazer tub rims, plus good tubs on both £150 inc. the mint 18t Condor sprocket ........DIBS Varanen

Selling as the economy is screwed and have lost my job, so having to liquidise some assets, asking for £750 as complete bike.

Thanks for looking

beauty!!!

This is lovely. Very well done on the build! This deserves to be bought by someone with more money than me.

being on the outer fringes of employment myself...i can empathise and hope you find a job soon.

Thanks for the comments.. the only solace being the enjoyment of getting a new project when finding some work again;)

oh la la and my size!! if I had money it wound be mine, shame....

What a fine bike -almost a crime to split.
If you wish to do so anyway, I dip the NJS stem.
All the best..

That is tasty

Chain envy.

Dibs the front wheel if it doesn't sell as a bike love it!

Oh that's funny. I think I have the exact same frame (mine being midget size) although my components are less kickass. I can't praise enough the power of 853 reynolds. It is just stiff as hell and seems so light. The owner will love it for sure.

By the way, never found much info on Paul Donohue, especially that frame model. Have you got any information that google doesn't on that frame model or on Donohue? Good luck with sale and job hunting.

I agree 853 is the best I've ridden. Paul Donohue from what I could find was a respected frame builder, with a shop in Co. Durham, that's now closed. He was linked with building Graham Weigh and possibly other British make Cougar or Corrado?

853 + all that fancy gear = Bargain

Yep a bargain on here only, as i will have to trawl it off to "the Bay" if no takers....

Really nice frame. I have one of his 853 road frames and it is a pleasure to ride.
Would like to get a track frame as well.

Update to sale.... Now considering the break up! Prices above

That frame, at that price is a stone cold bargain!

Dibs handlebars. Pm on the way

Bargainous! Crazy. WHAT a frame

Dibs handlebars and saddle
