OPEN Cycles WI.DE Gravel / Allroad Frameset - Gloss/Matte Grey - Medium/54

Having a swap about of a few bikes and not sure if I’m losing the plot a bit, but I feel like the one bike I said I’d never sell, is in the firing line.

It really is the one bike that can and has done anything and everything, comfortably, from long road rides, singletrack forest, to fast gravel.

I won’t pepper the thread with all the specs as they can be found on the Open website and will cover things much better:
https://opencycle.com/WIDE

Will be selling as a frameset only:

• frame
  
• fork
  
• thru axles (CarbonTi)
  
• brand new seatpost clamp
  
• brand new headset bearings & bearing cover
  
• brand new steerer bung
  
• brand new steerer/stem topcap & bolt
  
• Cable stops / grommets for mechanical, electric and wireless
  
  

I’ve owned this from new and it’s been well used but also very well looked after, as those who know me can attest to, if a bike gets even relatively dirty, it’ll get a full strip down rebuild.

4 superficial cosmetic points to paint/finish worth highlighting: small chips on rear left dropout where the thru Axle locates, small patch of wear to paint on downtube where bottles have rubbed, some chips under drive side chain stay by bottom bracket I can only presume were caused by chainslap, a very small area of paint wear to the drive side chain stay where tyre rubbed.
I've also photo'd some other areas of very light superficial marks/scratches to paint.

£2000
£1900
£1750
£1650
£1600

I would prefer collection from E9 although I can possibly deliver within a small radius in London.
Can post to pretty much anywhere at buyers expense.

Please don't hesitate to ask any questions

I'll throw my hat in the ring for whatever 650b wheels and tyres you're selling?

edit - couldn't see that photo a minute ago

The Reynolds ATR in the pictures above, plus I've got about 3 pairs of nice, chunky 650b rubber ranging from 2.1 to 2.25 ill throw in (Pair Teravail Rutland 2.1 - good condition, Pair Vittoria Mezcal 2.25 - fair condition, Pair Vittoria Barzo 2.25 - Brand New) all tubeless.
Will see how the sale unfolds and if the frame goes solo, you're first on the wheels mate!

Aye, I'd be into that chunky tyre business. Happy to wait and see if anyone wants the rolling chassis!

Cool - will keep you posted mate

What a shout… posting my interest in any 650b carbons that may or may not be going.
Always wanted an Open and would have had the frame if it was my size and I actually needed 3 gravel bikes. :)

I'm using those exact Barzo's on my Secan and they're fantastic, so much grip, loads of fun and not that slow.

Used the Mezcal for everything from 40kph regents laps, 120km road rides to deep forest bogging and they were bloody brilliant. The Barzo look even better!

I was thinking about something like this to replace the Tripster. I'm more of an L than an M. :(

Will let you know mate, got a few others who have expressed interest

Pictures updated.

Happy to listen to sensible offers and consider sale in a part built state or as a rolling chassis / with parts pictured in full build etc.

All original cable stops, headset parts, top cap, spare rear hanger, manual and check card located.
As well as the 30mm Wheels Manufacturing bottom bracket, I’m pretty sure one of these DUB ones was destined for this frame, will include that aswell in case new owner is looking for SRAM group to build with.

Pictures of wheels for those interested.
Will get a full post listed separately.

Anyone selling an XL Open Frameset?

140mm stem and a lot of seatpost and you’ll be fiiiiiiiiiiinnneeee!

Just imagine how rad it’d look

Like to be way out of my budget but how much you thinking on the hoops?

With the three sets of tyres £550
Just the wheels £500

Price drop on the Open Frameset to £1900
Will also include the CarbonTi seatpost clamp.

I’ve owned this from new and it’s been well used but also very well looked after, as those who know me can attest to, if a bike gets even relatively dirty, it’ll get a full strip down rebuild.

Has this bike even ever seen some SFAB? ;)
GLWS dude, get a CX bike next and you won't sell that

Haha, oh Gio, I love your optimism, but I think I’ll always sell everything.

If SFAB is what I think it is, then actually probably not, as that only happens when I’m out with you, and for those special circumstances, the XC bike comes out 😂

Wheels now sold
Lovely to meet @Grifffff face to face!

Open WI.DE frame still here.

Will be moving to eBay at suitably eBay prices shortly.

Ready to go
