• For Sale: Carrera Subway LTD Frame+Forks/Decathlon Rockrider Frame/Carrera Wheelset

  in Complete bikes and frame & forks • 11 years, 4 months

  

  Hi, today I have a couple of frames and a wheelset for sale. Selling in order to create funds for some new components. I am located in Walthamstow, preferred collection is Blackhorse Road station but I am willing to meet somewhere along the Victoria line (within reason).

  1) The first item up for sale is a Carrera Subway 2012 Limited Edition frame (18") in platinum blue. The complete bike was bought new in 2012 and was stripped down as I was focused on my building another bike. The frame is very lightweight (7005 Aluminium) and is in EXCELLENT condition, there are no visible scratches to the frame. I am selling the frame with the original rigid straight blade forks. (Please note that the frame is only v-brake compatible). The asking price for this item is £40.

  

  

  2) The second item up for sale is a Decathlon Rockrider frame (21") In black, I'm not sure exactly what the year of the frame is. The frame is in used condition and there are scratches (mainly at the chain-stay) but the scratches aren't deep enough to cause any major faults to the frame. The frame is aluminium and it is light. The asking price for this item is £30.

  

  

  3) The final item up for sale is the wheelset (26") that came off of the subway, wheels are rim brake compatible only. rims are completely true, less than 100 miles usage, the rear hub takes a freewheel and currently has a 7 speed freewheel fitted (Shimano MF TZ21) which will be included as I don't have the tools to remove it. The asking price for this item is £30.

  • I also have a set of commuting tyres (26x1.90) + Tubes (Only used for about 30 miles as at the time I switched to thinner tyres) that came stock with the carrera. The price for the wheelset including tubes and tyres is £45
    **- My apologies, forgot to take pictures of the tyres but If requested I will do so. For now all I can say is that the tyres are 'CST Traveller city classics' and are in excellent condition. Also, please note that the wheels will have both quick release skewers put back on. The front one was in use on my current bike but no longer needed as my new wheelset came (Yay). **

  One time in Walthamstow I saw a shady guy staring me down at the edge of the pavement as I was cycling, he tried to step in my path as I was approaching so immediately I sped up and he didn't move. Then he tried to grab me as I was passing so I stiff armed him and he fell over.

• What do you think about while cycling?
