Seeya then!

Hey Leute cheers for the tag, been ages since I've been online!

Is it possible to request a pick up from Alex? I'll be there with my size-too-small-lopro & bad back

happy for someone to tell me i'm outta my mind too

A bike was stolen from me a few years ago in London and an identical one has popped up on Gumtree (size L Pinnacle Arkose X, light yellow, SRAM Rival 1x). Might all be in my head but there are a few odd similarities to mine (scuffed logo on seat tube, non-stock handlebars) that make me believe the bike may be mine pending confirmation of the frame ID.

I now live in Berlin so can't inspect it myself, but I'm hoping a good soul might be willing to help out. FWIW I messaged the seller about this who sent a fuzzy photo of some Evans cycles docs. Guess it may be legit?

I'm hoping a good Samaritan can arrange an inspection with the seller and/or get a photo of the frame ID - atm bike is located in Isle of Dogs I think.

Seller's proof of purchase

Same bike listed on ebay up North a few weeks ago

So, let me know if you're able to help! I'll monzo some beer money for anyone who can get the ID or possibly more if it's a match.

Lovely lovely build mate. I'm looking at building up a frame - how'd you go with the 38c up front? Looks pretty close, haven't had any frame rub?

Sorry to hear you're stuck dude. My partner and I flew over in Jan but were allowed through since she's German with existing residence here and I had registered at her father's place.

If your partner has registered here, that could
certainly help. We emailed our documents the border police before traveling and they indicated we would probably be fine to get through. Fingers crossed for you.

Also keen for a trip sometime! Would be lovely to do an overnighter at some point too.

@cheekysnaker seen a few Brandenburg loops on Bikepacking.com but never heard of that! Thanks for sharing

@Falcor yeah seems like it's a matter of time & persistence 🤞 I'm collecting my FG from Potsdam > Berlin today in fact, but seems like a ride out west could be good when the weather clears a little. Loosely plan something in a few weeks' time?

Tell me about it... got quite lucky a few weeks ago and (mostly) moved into an apartment now. I ended up refreshing ImmoScout every 20 mins to find new listings - good luck there friend!

Would totally be up to brave the cold and go a ride tho. where have you been going?

Hey all, imma bump this up. I've just arrived (well, still flat hunting) and am keen to explore a bit* before I start working. Did anything ever happen with a microcosm?

Incidentally, anyone know of any semi-casual gravel groups/routes? Tho I'm guessing it's mostly shut down atm with COVID and winter

*have someone hold my hand while I learn right-hand-traffic

Suprise, another drop

Price drop to £60, need this gone!

Would you/your friend consider a project bike? Might have a suitable frame (inc. seat post, headset and BB)

Drops, will keep reducing price until it's gone

Forgot to upload them sorry! Gave them a bath and couldn't find any tears in the tread or sidewall. There is a bit of rubber 'fraying' along the bead but it's only been an issue when installing/removing them.

...and one without the gear.

Here it is built up for a bikepacking trip to Seaford earlier this year.

Moving overseas soon so clearing out some parts. Open to offers because it needs to go eventually. Asking for £80 £70 £60 £50 sold but open to any offer, need this gone!

Huge 22inch Nail Trail frame (2009 I think?) bought about a year ago from the forum with one other owner. For reference, I'm 6'2 and it's probably a hair too big for me.

Frame is well used including some tyre rub on the NDS chainstay (see pics) but overall fine. I noticed a small bit of slip in the seatpost when riding but probably just needs a clean.

Comes with Cane Creek headset (very smooth), BB (bit old), seatpost and I'll throw in a bottle cage.

Pick up in SE23 preferable.

Some suitable parts listed in my other post.

Moving overseas so clearing out some parts. It all has to go eventually so either grab it now or wait a week till I relist everything for free (i.e., pls make an offer now). Happy to provide more photos if requested.

Pick up from SE23 preferred but can probably drop off around London.
