Relisted due to moving and having no internet
I've moved out of the city and unfortunately can't really justify keeping my Langster as I've bought a geared bike, so it's up for grabs. It's the 2015 model, had a few new parts added around 10 months ago, the frame is a bit worn from massive amounts of use but still a really really nice ride and a stunning all round bike, decent condition for how much it's been used.
Size: Medium 56cm
Components:
Frame: Specialized A1 Premium Aluminium
Fork: Specialized FACT carbon
Front Brake: Tektro
Brake Lever: Cane Creek Crosstop
Bars: Bontrager Race bullhorns
Pedals: Nukeproof Neutron Evo (will swap these for look keo 2 if preferred)
Wheelset: H plus son Archetype 700c Wheelset Gran Compe Track hub
Tyres: Continental Gatorskin Folding
Sprocket: Shimano Dura Ace Track Single
Saddle: brooks cambium C17 Black
Seatpost: Specialized Sport, alloy, 27.2mm
Chain: KMC Z610 HX Silver
Crankset: SRAM Omnium Track - 170MM 48T / BLACKHas a Initial D sticker on the fork, could probably get it off if you wanted! There's also a ridiculously tiny ding on the top of the top frame, hardly noticeable and will try to get a picture of it at some point. Rest of the bike has a couple of scuffs, scrapes and marks that I've tried to photograph, could be considered a bit beat up
Asking for £350, bike stock was £550 new and the additional parts (less than 10 months old) are worth around £400 so think it's a fair price although open to suggestions if you think it's overpriced, potentially would split if the complete asking price is high.
Any questions just ask. Cheers!

Hey guys
I'm moving out of the city and unfortunately can't really justify keeping my Langster so it's up for grabs. It's the 2015 model, had a few new parts added around 4 months ago, the frame is a bit worn from massive amounts of use but still a really really nice ride and a stunning all round bike, good condition for how much it's been used.

Components:
Frame: Specialized A1 Premium Aluminium
Fork: Specialized FACT carbon
Front Brake: Tektro
Brake Lever: Cane Creek Crosstop
Bars: Bontrager Race bullhorns
Pedals: Nukeproof Neutron Evo
Wheelset: H plus son Archetype 700c Wheelset Gran Compe Track hub

Hey guys, so I had a custom build lined up (I've recently bought an Aventon Cordoba frame and a set of H+ Archetypes (all black) however i've been repeatedly told that the Eastway Esaki is a better way to go, it's currently sitting in the sale on Wiggle for £488 (or £400 for an ex display) so my question is would you continue to spend around £700 on a custom build (part list below) or just sack it off and go for the Eastway and save myself £300 odd? It's going to be used for a 5 odd mile commute daily and replacing a old spesh langster. Thanks in advance for your opinions / suggestions :)
Custom build I had planned:
Frame: £155 https://www.bricklanebikes.co.uk/aventon-cordoba-frame-yellow
Stem: £16 http://www.wiggle.co.uk/cinelli-ant-black-stem/
Wheelset: £160 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/322218511615
Crankset: £169 https://www.condorcycles.com/products/sram-omnium-track-crankset
Headset: £49.99 https://www.condorcycles.com/collections/headsets/products/campagnolo-record-1-hiddenset-headset
Handlebars: £29 http://www.wiggle.co.uk/deda-pista-track-handlebar/
Chain: £18 http://www.wiggle.co.uk/kmc-x10-93-10-speed-chain/
Tyres: £22 http://www.wiggle.co.uk/continental-gatorskin-folding-road-tyre/

Slightly old picture (missing some of the parts) but considering selling my Langster 2015 (bought lateish 2014), it's still in pretty decent condition and rides well, the crank is definitely on it's way out though so would likely want replacing as it's getting a bit creeky. I'm just wondering what you guys think is a fair price?
Parts are the same as here: evanscycles.com/specialized-langster-2015-track-bike-EV193916 with the exception of the following upgrades:
Frame Size: 56cm
Front Brake Lever: Cane Creek Crosstop
Saddle: Brookes Cambium C17
Bars: Bontrager Race Bullhorn
Pedals: Nukeproof Electron Evo
Straps: BLB Lockdown (pretty shady condition)Only defect is a standard marks / small scratches on the frame and a incredible tiny ding on the top of the frame.
Let me know what you think would be a fair asking price.

Jeez some nice parts on that for the price... I really want to build my own from scratch though, mostly to learn / get into it a bit more as i'm currently clueless and think i'd enjoy it. I already have a langster to ride, it'd be more for a project with the intention of building something i'd want to ride when finished :)

Hey guys, i've been riding a newly bought fixed Langster for the past 2-3 years and it's about on it's way out / needing an update. I've always wanted to build my own bike so now seems like a good time. I have a budget of around £750 max and am looking for some advice as to what frames are decent for a first build. From what I've read on here the pre-cursa is a decent starter frame? I'm thinking about getting a set of h+plus son formation face with some gatorskins as i'm really into the blacked out wheelsets. Any recommendations for something that would work well with these for a first build?
Thanks for the help :)
