So who really wants this bike but thinks the frame might be a touch too small for them?
I have the same Ridley Crossbow frame, a year newer and a size bigger. It has a slightly different paintjob and it is too big for me.
So, if I could ask for the blessing of the original poster......
If you want to buy Mikey5000's Crossbow and think it might be a bit small I would be happy to do a straight frame swap (i keep my bits, you keep Mikey's bits). I work in a place that has all the tools to do this (not quite a bike shop...) and so if someone wanted to actually disassemble then reassemble a bike themselves (for free) alongside me one weekend (I have headset presses, reaming tools if need be and so on...or we could just leave the headset & BB as is) then i'd be happy to do that.
This was also bought at Pearsons in Sutton.
Finally, it also has been through the same water as Mikey's:
