Mid 90's Evans road bike. Was great to ride, but after what I thought was a relatively innocuous crash it’s suffered some damage that needs to be sorted out before being properly road-worthy again... upsetting.

I hit a steepish grassy verge, which has bent the forks back slightly and left a small dent in the underside of the frame. As it’s all steel I think the both forks and frame are saveable, but I’m not 100% sure of that. I considered getting it fixed myself but it didn’t quite fit me in the first place so it seems a good time to look for a new bike.

I’d rather sell this as a complete package for someone to fix up but if there are no takers I don’t mind selling parts separately.

Here are the details:

Beautiful 54cm frame - hand-built by Chas Roberts of Croydon in Columbus SLX NEW tubing.

Campagnolo Chorus 8 speed Ergo group: Shifters, Mechs, Chainset, BB, Hubs, Seatpost, Headset.

3ttt Bars.

San Marco Saddle.

Mavic CXP12 Rims.

Maxxis Xenith Hors Categorie tyres.

I’m asking £200 for the whole lot. Based in London. Either collection or £18 UK postage.

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.
