Bit of a sad tale this one...
Back when i was massively into mountain biking (who remembers the malverns, jason mcroy, mint sauce and fantasising about owning a san andreas mountain cycle?) i always wanted a PACE RC bike. I was 16 and couldnt afford one.
Fast forward 10 years and i am living in London, bit more money under my belt, so i live the childhood dream and buy a PACE RC200 F2 bike with retro bits such as CONTROLTECH stem, USE seat post, Gripshift, XT and AVID brakes.
However, not living in rural dorset anymore, and not having the time to venture outside of the M25, the bike has been sat in my living room since September last year. Not ridden once. I genuinely feel sad every time i look at the bike and these nfeelings need to stop.
Other details- pick up only, or you could pay for postage but not sure how much this would be. I am in clapham, SW london.
The frame is 18" and in very good condition. The bits on it could do with some oiling and shining up but its in good nick. I have photos- people interested let me know and i can text you photos (cant email photos from my phone for some reason). If you want to come and have a look at it before deciding you can do that too.
I am looking at getting around £500 for it- paid £600 last year. would welcome any advice if people think this is too high etc.
Treat yourself to the finest mountain bike England has ever produced (dont listen to those Orange riders)
