  Hello!

  I have a Sram Rival 22 groupset lying around and I'm looking to put together a build to live on my direct drive turbo full time. Brake system irrelevant as I won't bother with that.

  Trying to replicate or stay as close to my road bike's geometry if possible (Planet X Pro Carbon Disc in M/53cm), but I'm open to other options if anyone has a scuffed frameset lying around in a similar size.

  Fine with pretty much any level of scuffed-ness as long as the frame is not cracked or damaged in a structural way.

  If frame + fork I'd need thru axle ideally so I can use my spare old front wheel, but I could always figure something out if it's a QR, I don't mind going full Frankenstein on this thing.

  Ideally BSA threaded 68mm BB

  Thanks!

  Brand new Giro helmet. I stupidly took away the tags and threw away the box straight away before trying it on, as I thought it was the same model I was replacing and had been wearing for years, but turns out it wasn't and I don't like how this one sits on my noggin. Worn once.

  Knocking £24 off the price I paid for it new on the 10th of March, selling at £60.

  First pic as proof of purchase and price/order date from Sigma.

  Collection at mine or nearby (Welling/Bexleyhath, I can meet you somewhere in SE), or in central London if easier, I work in King's Cross and I'm there twice a week.

  Thanks!

  Hello!

  I'm after a cyclocross bike.

  For my offroad ventures I currently only have a tank of a Croix DeFer that I use for bikepacking and touring. It's a sweet ride. I've tried using it for faster offroad shenanigans however and it's just too bloody heavy. I want to give cyclocross a proper go, and there's no way I'm shouldering that thing.

  So I'm after a dedicated cross bike, in decent condition with decent components, but nothing too crazy.

  I don't care too much if it's a bit cosmetically bunged up, as I'm going to cake it in mud and most likely crash on most corners.

  Things I'm after:

  Reasonably light, not too precious on which frame material tho
  Mid range groupset in good condition (Rival, GRX, 105)
  1x ideally, but I can change that easily if needed
  Hydraulic Disc Brakes
  Decent tyre clearance for potential gravelling
  Thru Axles (should be a given, but my CDF's got QR skewers and I'm not into that)

  That's about it really.

  Something good enough that I will genuinely want to ride and use for cyclocross and other faster offroad outings, but that I won't worry about scuffing up.

  Collection in London/South East. I don't drive, so if it's out of London it's gotta be accessible by train.

  Thanks :)

  EDIT: I found something, not sure how to delete this post sorry!
