I've returned home early from travelling and am planning on spending 3-6 months focused on cycling (touring and training). I'm 6ft 2" with silly proportions, so am looking for a bike with a TT of 59-60cm and short HT under 190mm.

Not fussed by old or new frame, but prefer more modern STI lever gearing. Budget is massively flexible as I plan to ride 80 miles each day for 3 months; so it really depends on what's on offer. I guess a mint Spesh Allez would be worth around £300 and I'd even look at a bike upto £2000 if it warrants it.

Based in London and can collect with cash anytime

I have a cougar frameset which may be of interest. Its Reynolds designer select tubing and has mounts for a rear rack and guards so may be useful for touring. Also have an 8 speed rx100 groupset with Sti shifters. Any good too you?

I have a 60cm JF Wilson, Reynolds 520, Shimano Tiagra and Mavic Ksyrium Equipe. Looking for around £420 if you're interested.

I've posted it on gumtree (http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/jf...oup/1031422711) but would prefer to sell on here.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
