Price drop to £175 (also to reflect another winter of usage...)
Changes from original description: FSA PowerPro BB. Rear wheel was rebuilt with the new spokes. Minor score marks from letting brake pad get too worn. The new pads were fitted to bike.
Rack is actually Tortec (I made a mistake above)

Got a Langster 56 that's been sat unused since April'ish. No riser but sorted for commuting (rack and race blades). Open Pro/Novatec wheels, 105 calipers.
I advertised it last summer https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/324580/ at £300 but it didn't sell so I used it throughout winter again. I replaced the BB with an FSA RPM and rebuilt the rear wheel. I'm more open to offers now.

Both new:
1) 7075 19t <32g. Bought for urban hill climb but I chickened out. No lock ring. £15 cash on collection in central or East London.
2) 17t bog standard with lock ring. Came with Novatech hub. £5 cash on collection in central or East London.
Thanks.

I am tempted for the craic. Already ordered a 19t cog. Done no training.
Is there a risk of it selling out today or can I delay entry till nearer the time?

I'll second the common Chinese carbon saddle. Mine was £14, weighs 100g and is plenty comfortable enough for short-medium rides (and I do actually sit on it, in case you're wondering!)

@JamesQGM - I know your advice is good but it's hard not to get caught up in weight-weenie-ism :)
The only real issue is whether to rejig drive chain for a lower gear (130bcd is somewhat limiting). The alternative is just to use my geared Arkose (10kg beefy disc).

I am looking forward to it already :)
Anyway I am at risk of going off topic. Time for a separate UHC2018 thread I think.
Hi @FranktheBouncer @holistic13 @Huggybear - sorry I disappeared.
Bike is still buried in my parent's shed! I was planning to dig it out put the new chain and ring on but it'll be a few weeks before I can go back. So I guess it depends how urgently you want it. (Possibly my parents could box it but I'd have to give you the spares separately)
