Wanted: 60cm Geared Roadbike for Turbo Training

Hi All,

Im after a cheap 60cm (58cm-62cm condisered) geared roadbike for use on my Turbo trainer.

Im not fussed about specs, or condition.... as long as the rear wheel runs reasonably true. No brakes or front wheel are needed. I have handlebars if it comes without. Dont mind something thats been locked away for years and needs some TLC first.

Ideally a quick release rear wheel would be useful, meaning i can use my Tacx rear quick release, so it fits into the turbo trainer. A 700c rear wheel is a must (i have a 700c x 35 wheel, but it probably wont fit most road bikes).

I can travel to meet, to most places in London. Budget is as low as possible, however i can go upto £150 if need be, but would be looking for something a little special at that price.

Cheers

This sort of fits ur requirements but dunno if its what you're looking for. this is more of a hybrid.. anyhow, here goes.
Got a Ridgeback Flight T1 in XL (60cm i think)
I was gonna stick it on gumtree for £200 in summer. but u can have it for £150 special offer this month only :P
700c wheels, 1 year old, still have receipt, stored inside. Bike is at home if u want actual photos.

thanks for the offer, but im after something potentially much older, cheaper and that needs some tlc.

damn... tryina get rid of this thing... :P

What trainer do you have? If it's one with variable resistance, just use yer fixed, or fit a freewheel on the other side. I find I rarely change gears much on my turbo (Tacx Sirrius) once I'm in my rhythm and instead use the 10 step variable resistance - Mosstly for interval stuff though.

Tacx imagic is my weapon of choice. Could use the track bike for now, as im doing interval training on it only.

Will have a play later, though im still after a geared bike
