• I've been riding this around as a very fast and fun/silly single speed for a couple of months but I think it's time it went to someone who will give it the respect and proper components that it deserves!

    The Quintana Roo Superform was the first bike built especially for triathlon, back in 1989 (according to Wikipedia, built "from the aerobars back"). This explains the super steep seat tube and 650c wheels (front and rear). Each Superform was painted differently. This one is a slightly nuts yellow/black/pink fade with white splats all over it. Pretty unique!

    Read more here from the man who set up the company http://www.slowtwitch.com/mainheadings/features/superform.html

    Comes with headset, BB, no dents or cracks, a lil bit of cosmetic rust in the usual places (front mech hanger, chips in the fork paint, etc) and a wee bit of bubbling on the top tube (nothing serious). Brake fittings are for recessed allen key type. Is a neat lugless design and especially nice seat cluster with integrated seat bolt thread. Haven't tried to remove the BB but the one on there seems decent.

    Asking for £80 --> PRICE DROP £70 Collection in New Cross SE14 or anywhere vaguely near there. Not thinking about posting yet.

    Seat tube - 55.5cm c-c
    Top tube - 56cm c-c
    Rear spacing - 126mm
    Seat post dia - 27.2
    Wheel size - 650c
    Tubing - Tange Prestige (double butted premium stuff)
    Headset - Shimano 600 (6207?) smooth
    BB - Unknown brand, sq tapered, smooth

  • Price drop £70

    I ride through central (Waterloo, Covent G, TCR, Marylebone) most days so happy also to meet along that route.

    I've been a forum member for a few years but this is my first 'for sale', and I'm hoping to post more in the near future so any feedback is welcome.

  • This is still for sale!

    I've got a set of 650c wheels (originally from a Felt TT bike) which we could discuss including for a bit more cash if you like

  • Yo don't know if you'll get a notification for this or anything... I bought this frame off you about 2 years ago, thought it'd be cool to show you how she looks nowadays!
