[INDENT]bump for final price reduction and additonal offer.
I need the space so I'll drop this down to £400 collected or £420 posted/delivered. I'll also include and unused pair of Shimano M520 clipless pedals in black.
I paid £348 for the frameset and headset from Charlie the Bikemonger, I think that's still about the best you'd do pricewise.
As it's space rather than money I'm in need of then, if I know you(or have enough knowledge of you), there's the option of up to a year interest free to pay. [/INDENT]

I'm tempted...would I get a rack for panniers on that do you think?
it has the fittings for front and rear racks as well as the mudguards. I had one before which I used when I had a 40 mile a day commute and it never let me down. Which is why, when I thought I had to abandon my Ti project, this is what I bought instead. In fact my Ti frame bears more than a passing resemblance to a mix of Surly Crosscheck and LHT.

[INDENT]I don't think this breaks any forum rules but apologies if I've got it wrong, seemed like a good.different idea to me.
Okay this is still in the garage and really has to go so I'm starting a daily price reduction, the price excludes delivery which I estimate at around £20 so:-
Monday 26/11/12 the price is £359
it is going to drop by £1 per day for however long it takes or until I lose my nerve or get bored....so tomorrow it will be £358, Wednesday £357 and so on....first come first served

For Sale: Surly Crosscheck SS 60cm Black
Posted by
[INDENT]£430 collected or for £450 I'll deliver within 30 miles of Farnborough, Hampshire, and will include London Waterloo station as well. I can arrange delivery further afield but kind of hoping not to. I could also pootle across London but I'm not a regular London rider and would rather avoid that if poss.
Payment by cash, paypal gift or bank tranx please....contact via the PM system on here.
So what we have here is a new frameset with some new and some used parts, when I say new I mean zero miles. Reason for sale is that I had thought I had to abandon another build and bought this frame as a stop gap replacement. Circumstances changed again so other build back on and, as I hadn't yet ridden this, thought I'd complete the bike and sell whole...I enjoy building bikes up..:-

Frame and forks are new, the steerer tube has been shortened to 265mm, still plenty of adjustment above and below stem
Headset is new, DiaCompe CB2 cartridge in black
Ergo grips and tape over foam padding is all new
Brake cable inner and outer are new
Chain is new, SRAM PC830 I think with powerlink
Chainset and BB are new - Truvativ Firex 1.1 with a new 36t middle and 48t outer ring taken from an Alivio chainset and the SRAM GXP style BB, I added two new Hope BB spacers, 2.5mm each side as it came from a 73mm BB shell bike...as per the Truvativ instructions
The cheap plastic pedals are new if they are wanted
Headset spacers are new
Brand X 120mmx15deg 25.4mm clamp stemp is new
Superstar SS kit with 14t cog is new
Falcon 130mm road saddle is new, note the later pictures show this, the picture linked above was when it was setup with a Brooks saddle which isn't part of the sale
Mudguards - SKS are used but in full working order and you can see from the pics I've left them at max distance to allow for full tyre clearance Xcheck is capable of. Points of note though, having previously been on a disc brake bike there is only one stay on the front mudguard non driveside. The rear mudguard also has a hole drilled in it for a previous vertical fitting, this is covered by electrical tape.
v-brake levers - are ok but have been fairly well used
handlebars - are from an old MTB and are the steel ones that curve into bullhornish style at the front...25.4mm clamp
v-brakes - Deore BR M530, used but in excellent condition, they have new Tri compound cartridges as well
seatpost - a bikehut inline 27.2x350 or 400 - has done less than 50 miles on another bike
wheels - are from an EBC courier Race and have less than 1k miles, they are Ritchey 622-18 rims so well able to take tyres up to the Xcheck clearances. The rear did have an 8 speed cassette(which is included if wanted) so bike can be run geared or SS with same wheelset.
skewers - plain silver Shimano ones and pretty tough, I haven't done the rear up supertight and can stand on the pedals without the rear wheel moving...all 18 stone of me. I have had the 32h wheels trued and also the front has new bearings. Mechanic did say the front races were a bit worn and so the new bearings may not last as long as I might like.
tyres and tubes - standard Marathons in 700x32 and Specialised presta inner tubes in 700x28-38 - none of which have done more than 20 miles...you should be able to see the newness of the tyres from the pictures.
Sorry should have added it's 36x14 SS giving approx 69.4 gear inches and the bits that came with the Xcheck frame, dropout bolts and rear canti hanger are included unused and unopened.
