Bought off FB but also advertised on here (in pre-97). Apart from tyres, grips and pedals original and in very clean nick. All I have done so far is replace brake pads, changed 1 wire, swopped pedals from Shark Bites and changed tyres (the road Spesh Crossroads were unworn but tread lifting from age and while original Kona Enter and Break look fine not necessary for my riding).
The bliss of no discomfort to my wrists and hands well worth the purchase! 20220529_103445.webp
 
Have had to buy a new, longer, seat post - complying with min insertion mark original 300mm does not reach top/seat tube welds.
The chainset is some no-name that was reckoned a low point in the spec in reviews. What mid-high end Shimano 9 speed have been a contemporary upgrade?
Makes a lovely gravel bike!
