Enigma Esprit + Enve 2.0 Ti Frameset - Seized seatpost

Posted on
  • We're moving flat and I can't really justify keeping this, especially after the looks of disbelief when the secret cellar stash was discovered.

    Enigma Esprit 57cm Titanium Frame
    Enve 2.0 Forks - 45mm Rake
    Rotor BB (BSA to 30mm axle) - Might have a Hope SRAM BB too.
    Chris King Sotto Voce Headset, Black
    Salsa Seat Clamp - Black
    Thomson Masterpiece layback

    Bought towards the start of 2013 and retired Jan 2016.

    It was well looked after but after using Park anti seize and not copper slip the seatpost got stuck in the frame. I spoke to Enigma and Nerve/Reilly on the south coast and they thought the post could be removed and the frame refinished - should look as good as new - merits of Ti I guess. Estimate approx £300. If the saddle height suited you then perhaps you wouldn't need to get sorted though.

    • Stock geometry with horizontal top tube. I've attached the frame drawing - ignore the curved seat stays - this frameset is the newer model with pencil thin straight ones.
    • There are some scratches and cable rub but no dents. Some marks on seatpost and forks.
    • The very small black marks on the frame is tar or something like that flicked up from the road. Can clean off.
    • I don't have a tool to check derailleur hander alignment I'm afraid. It's a replaceable part and available through Enigma.
    • Pretty light setup.
    • I really enjoyed this bike and only switched to something a little more aggressive with discs as my riding habits changed.

    Really not sure what a fair price would be. The RRP for the frame is £1695 and forks £360.
    Let's start at £800

    May also consider PX/Swaps for silly carbon disc brake wheels or Wahoo KICKR trainer type things.

    Collection from Herne Hill, London. Shout if you want to view or have questions.
