For Sale: Revolution Courier Race

Selling my only geared bike. This is the Edinburgh Co-op Cycles own-brand Revolution Courier Race. The "Race" means 700c wheels, as others came with 26" MTB wheels.

Its a fast bike, and easily converted to ss/fixed. Its in good condition, but has some nicks and scrapes to the paintwork. Paint is charcoal grey, so can be spot-painted if one wishes. But its also an aluminium frame, so it won't oxidise as steel would.

All reasonable offers considered. I'll throw in a pair of Conti Sport Contacts (practically unused), and a set of drop bars (42cm, also practically unused). London collection only. Currently it has on it, and will be sold with, a pair of 23c Armadillo All Conditions.

Would make an excellent winter bike, as it has space for mudguards, and wider tyres. Its a size 18, so fits those from 5' 7" to 5' 11".

There's no front derailleur, and only the rear 8 spd set-up.

Is this still for sale?

Now SOLD.

Accepted offer of £140 from kingomonkey, and sold it to him this morning.

He came down from Leeds! Apparently he was looking for this bike, and was in luck when he found mine. I gave him free Mr.Tuffy Tyre Liners, some spare allen keys, a new drops handlebar, and a pair of Conti 28c tyres. He was quite pleased.

It will make a great allround bike, and I sort of wish I'd kept it, and converted it to my winter bike.
