After the disaster of my PACE cracking right after selling it and me giving back the money, I've now had to split it to sell as parts.
I'm listing the forks, bars, stem, seatpost, saddle, headset, and chainset for now. I'll add the wheels, mechs, shifters, brakes etc later.

Forks are PACE RC31 carbon rigid. Disc only. 1 1/8 steerer (200mm)
420mm axle to crown for 26" wheels.
Really good condition given the age.

Ok, this is now 'unsold'. 🙄

Despite the frame having no crack whatsoever when I sold it...and I know this because I cleaned the bike thoroughly, and spent time staring at the BB area specifically when I was adjusting the front derailleur... It has now completely cracked around the seat tube to BB weld after the buyers first couple of rides.
I wasn't thrilled at the implication that the crack MUST have already been there, and that it's not possible it could have just been completely fine and then cracked on his first couple of rides, what can you do?

My far more sensible friends and family have said that I should absolutely NOT refund the money as it was no longer my responsibility, and it's just bad luck on the buyers part, and it's a risk that comes with buying a 25+ year old aluminium frame.
While I know this is all true, I've agreed to refund the money to the buyer, which has now dropped me massively in the shit this month....so I'm now going to have to split the bike and sell as much as I can separately.
So if anyone is interested in any of the parts, they'll all be for sale.
I'll add a list to the thread when I have the bike back.

Now sold!

Final try at £700 before I move it.

Dropping to £725 😬

Sold!

Us good eggs gotta stick together! X

Much appreciated!

Replied! 👍

It's THIS one, completely unused and unmarked.
Asking £80, collected from Hackney E9

Dropping to £750

Price drop. £350 or best offer!

Second dibs for a friend!

Indeed I do. Never have the time to ride it though. 🙄

It was 'too nice' for the first guy, so it's still available. 👍

Not sure why I would? I don't use Retrobike.

Selling my complete PACE RC200F8 here.

As much as I would love to keep it, my PACE RC200f8 is going to have to move on. I really don't have the space for it, or the time to set it up how I'd like.
You'd struggle to find one in better condition too. No dents or cracks.
Spec is as follows...
18" frame.
RC31 rigid carbon forks.
Original Hope ti hubs to Mavic 317 disc rims with red hope qr's and unused Maxxis crossmarks.
Chris King rasta headset.
Original Middleburn triple chainset.
Brand new black Thomson stem and seatpost now fitted. (Red Hope stem from picture comes free).
Easton monkey lite carbon risers with Ergon grips.
Fizik saddle.
Shimano xtr dual control levers. Xtr rear mech. Xt front mech.
Avid BB7 cable disc brakes.
No pedals.

I also have a set of custom singlespeed dropouts. Both without disc mount if you want to set it up fixed, or with disc mount, which would need some slight filing to fit around the current upper disc mount on the frame.

I'm asking £800 for the lot, for this almost pristine piece of mtb history, which is still fast as fuck!

Collection from Hackney E9.
If anyone needs other photos I can sort it out, but it's not easy to get decent shots in my flat, hence the older photo from my folks place.

Potential dibs on the straight bars, pending collection location. 😁

The mugs are all sold now. Thanks all. 👍

If you can add £5 for the additional shipping cost that should cover it, so £30 total. 👍

Received with thanks. 😁

They're stamped from the outside in reverse so the marking is visible the right way inside. 👍

Fine with me. Do you still have the details?
