GONE

I need to make some room for a new bike, so the remains of my first commuter has to go. Free.

Recipient needs to collect from the Epsom Downs area, and must take the whole thing.

It's a 20" 2011 Trek 7.0fx, like this: http://www.evanscycles.com/products/...-bike-ec025529

The rear axle is slightly bent, leaving it ridable but with the rear wheel nearly rubbing against one of the chainstays. The chainstay is abraded (from a previous back wheel with an even more bent axle) all the way through the paint and a little way into the aluminium.

The chain is very stretched (2-3% I think) but I'll throw in a brand new SRAM 8-speed chain and powerlink for which I have no further use. Most of the cogs are also very worn. Not sure about the chainrings.

saddle and seatpost not included.

The tires have been replaced with 700x38c Specialized Nimbus Armadillos, tread somewhat worn but life in them yet.

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

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

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

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
