    Sorry, thought the rules only applied to listings on cycle sites

    Anyway, no longer for sale, came up with some reddies so now don't have to sell it

    Cheers

    Hi, I'm (reluctantly)selling my Perry road bike. its a compact geometry frame, IIRC the seat tube is around 54cm. it's a Steve Perry Shop Team frame, with Cannondale Coda brakes and seatpost, Shimano STI brake lever/shifters, Ultegra drive train and crankset, Massi polished alloy fork and other quality bits. Can't remember what the wheels are, but they are shimano ultegra hubs and are also very lightweight, with Mavic Qr front and rear, and Michelin Axiom tricolore tyres. It currently has light alloy pedals with toe clips fitted, but will also come with the Look clipless pedals as shown in the photo.

    I will take proper frame measurements tonight and can also try to find out the weight if anyone really wants to know. I live in Kent but can bring it to Camden if anyone is interested

    £250

    you're too tall to ride that bike, it's ideally suited for someone like 5'5

    A cheers, sizing is one of the things I'm constatnly thinking about, as I mtb a lot and it involves sloping top tubes you just end up buying a longer seatpost etc ;)

    Thanks

    Just wanted to say hi, I'm wanting to get back into road riding after a long time away and looking for road or preferably singlespeed bike. I work in Camden and commute in from Kent , and have to ride a foldy to be allowed on the train (boo!)

    I want to start road riding again inthe eveneings for fitness and when I can't use my mtb (Curtis Supercross)-I'm a big fan of steel frames...

    Cheers

    hi, I am new to the forum ahving been looking on here for a while for hints and tips on buying a road/ss bike

    I'm quite interested if the gitane is still for sale, and presume the frame size would be ok for me at 5'8"?

    many thanks
    Gav
