I've got a 21" centre to centre Saracen Hardtrax full bike up for sale
I guess its mid 90's vintage with rigid forks and threaded 1" headset, with a nice brazed on "handjob" style cable hanger for the rear canti
It's silver, with the paint in reasonable condition with just a few small rust spots (all treated with Kurust).
Fitted with:
Saracen quill stem & flat bars
Kona grips
Shimano integrated shifters (8 SPd)
Shimano hubs, Araya silver rims
Shimano octalink triple chainset in good nick, good bb
8 SPd cassette and Altus rear mech
Selle San marco Viper gel saddle
Nice hardly used Mtb tyres
I've spent a lot of time cleaning this up and getting it roadworthy with a view to using it regularly as a pub bike....but I'll have to resign myself to the fact that it is too big for me at 5'9" - the guy I got it off is 6'3", and really this is a six foot plusser kind of frame! You can see how it's set up in the pics - it fits me but not really ideal.
I'd like £60 for what is a ride away useable bike that's worth keeping - if you're taller than me!!
