• I am trying to gauge interest on whether I should split and sell this.
    It has some weird geometry, with a top tube of 57cm and a headtube of 20cm. (actual drawing posted).

    Comes with the kinesis dc37 carbon fork and a hope headset. The frame has been painted black and some of the paint is peeling near the dropouts. Armourtex quoted around £50 to put it back to ti.

    Has mudguard and rack mounts.

    No dents and really does ride well. My only issue with it is that by the time I set it up for commuting its weighs 15kg and I want something lighter.

    Looking for around £800 all in. If I am way out let me know and the ability to sell really depends on me finding something else. Bike can be viewed in Euston.

  • Kinesis dc37 carbon fork = 625g
    Titanium frame = about 1500g ?
    Are all the other components made of lead ?

    I can't see that swapping the frame for "something lighter" is going to make much of a dent in that 15kg overall bike weight, a few hundred grams at most...?

  • It frustrates me intensely, I am going to strip the guards and dynamo off it and see what it weighs.

    It does ride well shame the headtube is so long.
