For Sale: Geoff Roberts track bike Mavic Ellipse Thompson Concor

I REALLY shouldn't be selling this as its feels destined to be in my possession, however the combination of impending first child and the fact that it's just a touch too small for me means it's up for grabs.

As some on here may be aware, I had this bike stolen from me in spring 2012. After about a year of continuous searching a pretty much gave up hope of ever getting it back. Then in July last year it suddenly popped up on ebay. A friend put me in touch with cycle recovery taskforce department of the metropolitan police (which i didn't even know existed) and after a fair bit of back and forth they ended up reclaiming the bike from the ebay seller and bringing straight to my front door the next day.

However, as I say, I need to face up to the fact that it really isn't my size. Plus I could really do with the cash and the space (the "baby's room" is currently overflowing with bikes).

Front clearance made me faint.

Super frameset that and great price. If only this were my size...

how tall are you? I'm defo interested if it's around on friday

i'm a touch under 6 foot

Really?! That's interesting. Reckon TT would be a bit short for a 6"2'er? Got a mate who needs a ride and I want to pressure him to get this.

Beautiful, have a bump. Also, what bars are those? Look dope.

dunno who makes the bars but they're all kinds of comfy and i've got four spare sets of 'em if anyone wants to buy some!!

25.4?

Pretty tight clearances on the front there¬!

25.4?

Want, but don't need/can't afford.
Bump for a rad bike at a super-bargain price.

Love this...

Gah, I think I might have to get this... Can my knees still do tha brakeless?

Who needs knees when you can look so good on it.

Any chance that you are willing to ship this beautiful ride abroad to sweden?

I can be at Turnpike lane station tonight with cash
