A bit of old skool nom.

I have a pair of these. The single best pair of wheels I’ve ever ridden. Faster than Lightweight tubs. I’ve taken them off my bike for the first time in a couple of years and replaced them with some v nice H+Sons. It rides like a cart horse in comparison then the Derby winner it is. £1200 for these is a total f*cking bargin !

Yep.

Blimey ! I turn my mind for 5 minutes and the world goes nuts !!! @redefined_cycles mate I’ll drop you a DM. Happy to talk turkey.

TT 540 c-c
HT 138 - a bit ‘Pegoretti’ in that it’s fractionally higher above TT than under the DT - no need for spacers.

595 long gone I’m afraid.

Yes I’ll happily post anywhere in the world. I’ve posted tons of bikes globally over the years.

If someone wants to discuss price there are changes I can make to make it cheaper. I’d be very happy to keep the wheels for instance.

Thanks guys. It is indeed a thing of beauty. Haven’t got the geo, I tried when I bought it but IF we’re between systems and then I decided I couldn’t be arsed to pay the. $25 !!!
I can happily get the tape out though. What would you like ?

Furlough, 3 lockdowns and now no job forces the sale of my IF Crown Jewel in Candy Absinthe Green a 3 colour special order paint. The bike is in really lovely condition aside from a few chips in the paint which I touched up when I bought it with enamel paint. This paint is notoriously “chippable” but looks incredible. None of these chips got anywhere near the primer let alone the steel. I have regularly treated the frame with “frame saver” and it’s in great condition. The chipping has never bothered me because the paint is incredible and still looks amazing.
Anyway that’s the only negative.

The bike is amazing, it rides beautifully, very comfy but stiffer in the rear end with the carbon seat stays. The Reynolds Ouzo Pro forks as well as being named after my fave tipple are full carbon and looks stunning doubled up with the Reynolds back end. The bike is a real thing of beauty. Sterling silver head tube badge natch.

Currently built up with full 9000 DuraAce except the Campag Record crankset. In the photo it has a Moots stem but this will be replaced with a 100mm Planet X stem and I will be keeping the saddle, it’s fitted with a Chris King headset and H Plus Son wheels in great condition.

I will happily split but want to sell the frame first.

Ideally I’m after £1500 for the whole bike, but looking for OIRO of £800 for the frame set.

Fuck me that is the coolest bike I have ever seen.
I wish I hadn’t stopped growing when I was 12.
Arse.

Put a frigging picture up !!!!

Without the dent, I'd be interested, but this isn't a troll, because the reason I wouldn't be interested would be because I would be buying it to replace my CAAD10 with a HUGE dent in the drive side seat stay from when I broke the rear mech and it slapped up on the seat stay.
I mention this because I have continued to ride the bike for the past 4 years, I hit the dent with heat from a plumbers gas torch and it popped pretty much straight out, but took the anodising off, but that bike has been perfect ever since, Cannondales are TOUGH. I think the price is probs a bit steep considering the dent, but I would, for what its worth, buy it and not think twice about it. GLWS

Easiest of all, cut seat post off level with the top of the seat tube, then hacksaw the seatpost front top to bottom. It takes time and you need to be gentle but it works every time. Usually takes a couple or three cuts.

I’d be really interested in the shifters if you split. I could buy the whole grouppo if necessary.

Hi I sent you an email.

What ? A £200 bike ? Far out. I expect to do that with my £10k Cannondale Black Inc but really ?? Someone make me an offer. It needs a happy home.

1000 views and no one interested ?? WTF ? Great bike, good wheels and only a couple hundred nicker ? Madness !

Thanks mate. My wife agrees sometimes too !!

Anyone interested ? 25 minutes from st Pancras to Harpenden !!

Harpenden. Happy to take more !!!!

I am moving to the Outer Hebrides, no need for track bikes anymore. My fab old track bike that I bought in Australia 15 years ago is up for sale. Its a great frameset, steel and very traditional all in black with chrome forks. The crankset is a Sugino Super Mighty (bloody love a company that calls something Super Mighty ! Yay the Japanese !!) and the stem is an ITM 800 Open and the bars are NJS with bitching rubber grips which have never been used in anger. The wheels are brand new Pegasus 40mm rims I think, they have never turned a wheel.

I will get a tape measure out, but from memory it is IRO a 56, I now ride a 53 but when I bought this I was riding a 58, so its somewhere nearer 58 than 53 !!! I will confirm it asap though

I have won a lot of races on this bike and its only ever been ridden on the track, the fork is not drilled for brakes, its a brilliant bike. I have both a seat post and a saddle that I can put on it somewhere but my life is in chaos, so lets say for shits and giggles that there is no seat post or saddle.

As for price, I honestly have no idea its a great bike, but I don't want to deal with the assholes on Ebay, so l reckon it has to be worth at least £200 so start there ? Happy to take offers, I need the space ultimately.

I'll take it thanks John. Sent you a text.
