Hi,
I a have Decathlon 7.1 road bike
http://www.cyclerollo.pwp.blueyonder.co ... ATH7.1.jpg
Before you get too excited it has done thousands of mile as my winter trainer so not immaculate.
56cm compact Aluminium 6061 frame.I am 6' and it fits me fine.
Shimano Sora 8 speed STI and mechs.
Lesser Shimano chainset (52/32) and Decathlon branded brakes and finishing kit.
A good value for money bike - But a thoroughbred racer it isn't. If you are on a tight budget fine, but I would really suggest you save some extra cash and go a bit more upmarket if you can.
At the moment it needs a new front derailleur cable,new handle bar tape and the hubs re-packing(or possible new bearings /cones) and a good clean :facepalm:
Recent Fortezza tricomp tyres in blue to compliment the blue on the frame
and a recent cassette.
As is I am after £50 plus post(£25) or if I service it and beautify it £80 (plus post)
Based near Wembley if you can collect.
I can do pics. of the bike as is once rescued from the shed of doom,but please only if you are interested as I am really busy at the moment.
Good Luck
