For Sale: LOOK KG171 - classic carbon road bike w/ Mavic Cosmic

I wouldnt compare this to http://www.lfgss.com/thread71934.html

The £500 look was and looks like it was kept in good condition throughout its life and respected by the owner. Yours looks like its been abused for several years without any maintenance. That amount of grime and the sad state of the contact points tells us that the state of the components is pretty grim. So yeah, you obviously put as much effort in trying to flog this as you did trying to keep the bike in shape : ) There are several broken parts and the seat post and right shifter not properly documented. I really mean no offense in saying this mate but anything north of 200 for a bike in this condition, parts and make regardless is a ripoff.

I understand you dont see the value in putting time in to clean it up and make it look dapper when you are getting rid of it anyway but then a classifieds section
with a less bike enthusiastic crowd is a better home for this ad. Oh and everything sold on its own, clean and properly photographed would probably fetch you up to 400 in total on ebay. But thats a lot of work

I like it as is. Even roughed up these carbon look frames will still be on the road when all your ultralite monocoque have cracked in the dust

Buy it then

My Dads got one of these converted to fixie, with all carbon parts. Its literally the lightest bike I've lifted. Couldnt beleive it. Half the weight of my 531c. Great bike!

Is this still available? Is it clean? I love that colour.

unless you were under the impression the c stood for carbon i can't see why you were that surprised..

I take it this has gone already then.
