Serotta Legend Ti - Chris King // Ritchey // Sram

Posted on
  • I had this on eBay for a while - getting tired of low ball offers - and I've umm'd and ahhh'd as to selling this but its just not getting used.

    I love this bike, its taken to me from London to Paris on a few occasions and even to see Wiggo + Cav at Ghent 6 in Belgium - its been ridden and toured and until recently was used as my daily commuter. Its been loved but does have some wear and tear on the groupset - please see pictures as this forms part of the description.

    I imported the frame and forks from New York 3-4 years ago at great cost, think it cost north of £1k once all the shipping, fees and customs were taken into account. It was almost NOS at the time and the frame remains in excellent condition for its ago - a few paints chips to the top tube and some cable rub. Its got a 1inch threadless steerer which is run with an Ahead stem + shim.

    Amazing to ride, buttery smooth great for long days in the saddle and confidence inspiring on descent it feels like its on rails still.

    Ben Serotta is now building frames again, but these are a snapshot of history.

    Build:

    Early 00's Serotta Legend Ti Frame with proprietary C4ti tubing + 1inch threadless Ritchey carbon fork
    Deda RM02 Bars + 100mm Deda Zero 1 stem + Cinelli caleido bartape
    1inch Threadless Chris King Headset
    Easton EC70 Carbon setback seatpost (~20mm)
    Sram Force 10 Full Groupset
    Pink Chris King Hubs (32h/32h) x Pacenti SL23's (V2) - plenty of life left on the rims

    Sizing:

    For a custom bike this has standard geo which is rare for a Serotta:

    TT - 560mm CTC
    ST - 560mm CTC
    HT - 150mm

    The bike has always been regularly serviced and cared for by the guys at Look Mum No Hands - no expense spared.

    Pedals, Bottles + Cages + Tool Roll not included.

    Collection is strongly preferred. Postage is possible, but please bear with me whilst I locate a bike box.

    Bank Transfer Only.

    Price: £1,450

  • Incredible, saw on eBay yonks ago but didn’t know it was yours! Can’t be persuaded to keep it? 🤔🤔

    Just down to the All City now?

    Interested in the wheels if splitting but deserves to go complete 🙂

  • Miiight be interested in frame set if split

  • Discounts for repeat offenders? 🤣

    I forever regret selling the previous one (but then again, that's how I feel about all the bikes that have gone). I was actually watching that on the bay and the thought had never occurred to me it would be you again!

    Goes without saying: what a stunning bike. 👏👏👏👏

  • Hello mate, I've got the All City and the CAAD10 now.....quite persuaded by @Zed 's Stoma to go discs in the near future...

  • Thanks, will let you know if I split. Would want around £950 for the frame FYI.

  • Haha! How are you getting mate? I've clearly got a problem with old Ti, still miss that Pearl Legend, can't believe it got written off..... ;(

  • Not a day goes by where I don't kick myself over that story.

    Hanging in there, bro! Moved to the Peak District, trying to ride as much as I can. Will holla if I manage to shift some stock and for some bizarre reason someone hasn't snatched this beauty by then!

  • Peaks! Amazing - very jealous. Shift what you need to shift and buy this.

    Will post up better pictures soon.

  • 🙌 lush but too similar to things I have - dibs the wheels though if split 👍🏻👍🏻

  • I've put shit up on the bay tonight. Flog one = I'm calling you. 🤣

  • This is now SOLD and will be winging its way to Belgium shortly.

    Thanks for the interest.
