I'm looking for a small size (50cm-ish) bike to use as a rural beater commuter. Ideally some kind of CX/gravel bike/tourer that can handle dirt paths etc but I'm open to ideas.

Cheap and ratty is preferred as it'll be locked up outside and I don't want it to look too stealable etc, I'd consider a frame or fixer upper.

Let me know what you have. Thanks :)

Any good? I’ve got a small Norco CX bike rolling chassis up for grabs. Geo (and a few more pics) in this comment:

Might be a bit long in the frame for me but I'm also in Oxfordshire so I'd be interested in having a look at it. What sort of price were you looking for?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
