due to having to many bikes and being skint this ones up for grabs. mid 90s 853 front end, columbus rear and converted to disc by the builder and painted by argos a few years ago. few small marks, 18 1/2 c-c and 21 c-t. 185mm headtube

the only issue is the seatpost, its not siezed as i can rotate it in my vice but only pulled out 15ish mm before i gave up and made a coffee.this will need slide hammering out or similar. not a huge job but i havent the gusto at present :roll:

comes with rockshox recons, fsa headset, ritchey stem and postage for £220 within the UK

paypal gift, collection etc all welcome

chris

Re:

I’ve never seen a rear monostay Alves before... interesting

Is that a mini-gusset at the headtube/downtube?

It is indeed, fondled and appreciated by joe breeze himself when he visited last year.

Hmmm is it fillet? My eyes are going.

I don’t have a hardtail retro any more. Come to think of it I don’t have a hardtail anything.

As you’re not selling me the golden one any time soon, and I have everything here to make a complete dog’s dinner of this one, pm me your bestest bestest to a bike smuggling compatriot.

Who put the 1970s seaside printed personalised t shirt lettering on it?

Will need this for the August meet won’t I?

Yes you will.

How will you manage without it?

You won’t.

True.
