Hi Guys,

         I've had second thoughts on how I should sell this bike, and have decided to split it up,and sell the frame and the components separately.I'll get to work taking the bike apart soon,and photograph and list everything,so keep a lookout for my post. Cheers,Les.

Thanks.

I do want to sell this bike, so I'm dropping the asking price to £350.Anyone interested?

I've got one the same as the bike in the foreground in the picture. Trying to sell it-negotiable.

I'm trying to thin out my bike collection as I'm not needing so many.This is a very nice Cannondale R1000 with an aluminium frame and I've fitted it with Mavic Ksyrium Elite wheels, which are really top grade light wheels. It's got Shimano Ultegra brakes and gears, the hollowgram bottom bracket 172.5 cranks (I don't know whether the chainset is Ultegra or 105) ,rings 50/34 with 9 speed 12-25 on the rear.The bike less pedals weighs 18 lbs.I'm asking £700 ono for this bike.

More details about the parts on the bike(all bought in the eighties). Campag Record chainset 52/42 170 mm cranks.Record pedals & campag alloy toeclips.Hubs are Record large flange on Mavic MA2 rims, 32 spokes front,36 rear. Front mech Record, rear 980. Bottom bracket campag bars& stem Cinelli brakes Campag Record seatpin I think 90's Chorus I like the taper, but I have an 80's two bolt Record if anyone would prefer.

It is a 25" frame, McCamb do you think it's worth £450? I haven't been looking to sell any bikes for a while. I only seem able to upload one photo at a time,so here's another. Does anyone know why i can't upload more ?

I forgot- I'm in Norfolk now, but I have a sister I visit in Shenfield, Essex. If anyone in the London area is interested I could arrange a date and bring it to Shenfield.

Hi Scilly,

   Glad you like the bike, I didn't have it made as an out & out racer,it has mudguard clearances and rides comfortably. Would be ok for London roads. Frame measures 63cm from centre of bottom bracket to top of seat tube,and 57 cms from centre of seat tube to centre of headset tube.It's made from Columbus slx tubing.I'm thinking it's worth about £450ish, but I don't know what the market's like for these.Do you think I should post again with these details,or will people follow our messages? All the best, Les.

I'm selling some of my bikes as I don't ride so much nowadays.I've got a nice Ron Cooper. Ron made it for me in 1984,and I did a bit of racing on it, then used it for leisure riding.It's as I assembled it originally,with Campag equipment and Cinelli bars and stem.It was last resprayed by Colourtech about 10 years ago. With the long horizontal rear dropouts I suppose it would make a good fixie, but I don't really want to split the bike up.I have got quite a few road components I also want to clearout, I might try and post them. 80's Campag record brakes like the ones on the Cooper,a couple of triple chainsets one Campag one Shimano,a pair of Mafac 2000 centrepull brakes( very powerful,used on tandems a lot).

Retired 66 year old ex casino employee / bus driver when I wasn't a croupier.I used to cycle into London's west end nightly from Essex in the 80's & 90's.Did some 3rds/junior racing in the eighties,and used to go to training camps in Majorca or Cost Blanca. Have had a heart condition (atrial fibrillation) for the last 10 years,so have had to slow up.Don't ride so much now, so want to reduce my bike collection (and parts).
