Hello, I'm putting my Klein Mantra out there, to see if anyone fancy's taking it on as I haven't time or shed space to offer it for much longer.
In the flesh it looks nice, it's got a nice metallic finish with colour gradation - not just white like it looks in the pictures! There are some scrapes on the paint at the top of the main monocoque frame, I have touched up, but some better colour matching would help.
I bought it and put on the Serfas saddle, eggbeater pedals and changed to flat bars and a Titec stem, but at present haven't reconnected gear and brake cables. The forks are a bit scruffy but work fine, I was thinking I'd put something else on (maybe some Manitou Ti forks or something) but never got around to it.
It is in reasonable shape, it has been in the owners shed for years. Gruppo and wheels seem ok. I put some irc skin wall tyres on which suit it well, the rear is perished so could do with sourcing another. Rear suspension and shock seem ok.
Thinking £325ish and open to interesting swaps... if someone needed it posted it might take me a couple of days to get a box.
I'm in Bradford on Avon near Bath, a great place to ride along the canal or through the hills towards bath if you want to come for a look.
