Hi Guys, been a bit of a lurker on here for a while, and unfortunately 1 of my beauties has to go make way for a proper retro.
1999 Trek 8500
19.5" - I'm 5ft 10" and it fits me fine
IIRC these were about £1300 new
Alpha SL custom seamless drawn aluminium, handbuilt at Trek Wisconsin USA I believe. A very light racing hardtail. No cracks or dents, minor marks on frame, no chain suck/slap marks or cable rub. Drivetrain & brakes all working perfectly, mechanically sound & really good cosmetically. Had a service at LBS in Nov 12, receipt to prove this.
Manitou SX-R FORKS [work fine]
XT SHIFTERS [24spd]
XT BRAKE LEVERS
XT V BRAKES F&R
XT FRONT MECH
XT CHAINSET
XT HUBS & QUICK RELEASE SKEWERS
XTR REAR MECH
Has the original Bontrager rims and tyres! The factory saddle and handlebar grips are both unmarked. Shows the overall low mileage of the bike
Truvativ stylo 40 seatpost with titanium bolts - recently paid £50 for this.
Will throw in an Easton EA70 monkeybar & Specialized Lo Pro Mag pedals, and Shimano SPD pedals for free. The XT pedals & Prologo saddle aren't included in the sale
£295-00 collection only - West London Heathrow.
Cheers
Mandeep
