As far as sizing goes I'm 5'6 ish and it's perfect. Probably best for 5'4- 5' 8.
Offers welcome.

It's a freewheel Matt

Just checked the Day One sizing charts on the Genesis site. 50cm is a small, there is a XS below that at 47cm and a medium at 53cm.

In comparison- I used to own a Langster sized 49cm and it was definitely smaller than this Day One.

Hope that helps!

Pains me to have to sell this lovely singlespeed bike.
I am the 2nd owner after a previous guy who only covered a couple hundred km on it.
I put pedals on it and went round the block before Winter really started. Otherwise it's as close to new as you can get. It has sat in my (dry) garage since.
As far as I'm aware it is as standard apart from a 42 tooth chainring & an upgraded BB.

This is a cracking bike. A really comfy classic steel ride. Probably my idea of the ultimate commuter?

Change of job recently means I will not be cycle commuting anymore.
That is the sole reason for the sale.
Why buy a 2016 one when you can get this for a few hundred less?

Just in case any ladies might be interested in my Langster. Good condition and open to sensible offers.
Thanks

No sorry- I'm in Scotland. Happy to courier it to anywhere in UK though.

As it says on the tin.

SRAM Automatix 2 speed wheel
Internal centrifugal mechanism (no cables, no shifter).
I had it built into a wheel using an Ambrosio 700c rim by the renowned wheel builder Big Al of Wheeelcraft (near Glasgow).

I modified the spring tension that controls the shifting point as per this blog-http://mccraw.co.uk/sram-automatix-review/

This makes the hub shift up at approx 23 km/hr (according to my GPS watch).
I'm including a 19 and a 22 tooth sprocket with the wheel. This is a freewheel version- not the coaster brake.

Set up as a 42 x 19 (as per McCraw's blog), here are the gear inch stats for the hub-
1st gear 58"
2nd gear 82"

Set up as 42 x 22-
1st 50"
2nd 68"

I've only used it for about 500km and it's in almost new condition.

Looking for £70 (which is a bargain considering the hub alone costs £60).

No tyre included in sale.

Location Kilbarchan near Glasgow- I can courier the wheel anywhere within the UK.

Hi- I'm from the Glasgow area. Joined up here as it seems to be the biggest and most accessible SS/fixie forum on the interweb. I tried to sign up for Glasgow Fixed gear forum but apparently you need an invite- who knows how you get one..?
Bike stats for me are as follows- Specialized Langster (up for sale), Genesis Day One Disc, Specialized Allez (SRAM), Pinnacle hardtail mtb, Scott Ascent hardtail mtb. I commute singlespeed, roadie and enjoy the mtb when I get a chance too. Ex BMX freestyler in my youth.
