For Sale: Mercian lo pro

Posted on
  • SOLD

    For sale is my Mercian lo pro, 700/650 wheels. The micro geometry and the fact that it's meant to run with a lot of seatpost makes measurements a bit tricky, but I'm about 5"10' and usually ride about a 54cm bike, and it fits well.

    Somewhat regretful sale, but I've run out of space in the shed, and a man should probably only own one lo pro at a time, so it's time to move this one on.

    I bought this from the forum a couple of years ago for less than this is for sale - before anyone makes a fuss it's since been refurbished (flambouyant Red - lovely in the sunlight) by Chas Roberts with new Mercian decals - the price rise is justified in this instance.

    It's got some lovely details - aero headtube, internal brake routing down the downtube and the filled in seatstays in particular. No puppies killed, it can be set up with gears again trivially. I imagine it cost an absolute fortune from Mercian originally.

    It's great for messing around in London - I've done London->Brighton and London->Cambridge on it, so it's rideable over longer distances but obviously not the comfiest.

    The frame will come with a tange headset and miche bottom bracket. If you want the wheels also (White industries / Mavic CXP33) then please feel free to ask, but I won't split the wheels or the 20t rear cog (it's one of those splined ENO ones).

    I will not post - collection only from Stamford Brook station.

    .

  • How much for the wheels? Is it enocentric hub?

  • Yes it is - the wheels are matching White Industry Eno rear / M15 front. It's the splined version rather than the screw on hub.

    Welcome to first dibs them if you like :)

  • This is a seriously awesome frame. And the renovation done to it is superb.
    I'd have it back if I had the money.

  • cost for f&f and wheels?

  • Thanks eyebrows - its a lovely frame. Very fast and prettier up close than in photos.

  • Yeah great price on this. Deserves a bump for that alone.
