Ok no problem, it's Eagle so all is 12sp, 11-50 cassette, 175mm arms and a 32t chainring.

Ok here is what I have:

SRAM Guide R brakes including rotors and bolts (180F 160R) - £120
GX R Mech, NX shifter, crankset, chain and cassette - £150
Formula Boost Hubs on WTB i29 rims, taped for tubeless - £130
Pair of Schwalbe Nobby Nic 2.8 tyres, one Pacestar one Trailstar, both Snakeskin casing - £50

All new, I think these prices are pretty fair so don't really want to start haggling but if you want the lot for those prices I'll post it all for free.

Any questions fire away and happy to email pictures of you wish.

Just too late seeing this to sell you my forks sadly but I have most of the bits you are after, will reply properly when I have more time later if you are interested:

Boost wheels, SRAM guide brakes and NX/GX eagle drivetrain, all new (taken off a complete bike). Some 2.8 Nobby Nic tyres as well.

Other projects are in motion now so I need to make more of an effort to shift this!

Price drop to £875 for the complete bike as in the first set of photos.

Any other queries just shout.

I cut up some brake mount adapters to make little 90 degree plates with a 5mm hole on one face and an M5 threaded hole on the other. The normal bottle cage bolts go through the adapters to hold them and the first cage onto the forks and then you can bolt a second cage on to the threaded holes.

They worked really well but I have given them to a friend so are not included I'm afraid!

Cheers for all the interest, it is a fun bike!

All Pm's replied to now.

Not sure about the frame weight @amey, it has never felt porky compared to cheaper steel frames but certainly isn't on the lightweight end of the scale, if I'm stripping it down and remember I'll weigh it.

Saddle height is at 730mm in these photos as quite a few people have asked.

I have said £550 posted to everyone for the frame, forks, bags and headset.

@pit £275 posted for the wheels if/when the frame goes?

@platypus, @PC2 noted!

Some photos from previous trips showing different setups:

I need to free up some space so this lovely thing has to go unfortunately. This is a very versatile frameset, I have ridden it with both drops and flat bars, SS, fixed and with gears so you can set it up however you want.

The frame is about a year old and the bike is in good used condition, just the usual cable rub/small scratches from normal use.

Geometry and frame details can be found here:

Bargain WTB's from PX are hard to argue with although in my experience they don't build up as nicely as DT Swiss rims which are my go to. I have DT XR331's on my CDF and they have been brilliant. Nice and light at about 350g too.

Ah fair enough, I haven't been looking but thought they were fairly common.

It is yeah, one of the most fun bikes I have owned!

Proper jack of all trades, master of none which may not be everyone's cup of tea but it sure is mine.

If you are wanting a frame just to tide you over get a 2nd hand CDF. It will handle all your touring duties and can happily be ridden on the road.

I got mine for £140 and have done 100km days loaded and 120km road rides keeping up with someone on a CAAd 12.

Spend the money you save on nicer wheels and you will have a much better bike IMO.

Sorry for the late reply!

The basket and rack are a BLB set:

The bigger seatpack is an Alpkit Koala and the smaller one is made by Altura, I think it is this one:

Yeah it's a bit of a pig, an older 5 bolt one would have suited it much better but unfortunately I had no say in that!

Here are a few of my 650b CDF from various different trips, it's a damn fun bike.

The guards are SKS P55's, clearance is pretty tight but it does work.

I figure this might be a suitable place for the most recent build from the shop. Varonha frame, Campag Potenza groupset and Velo Orange finishing kit.

To be honest I had never heard of Varonha before, some nice details but the paintwork isn't very durable, might this be because it is stainless?
