Hi all, im selling my lovely British (Blackburn) built Nimbus road bike. I have had it for a few year's now and lovingly maintained it (As you can see)! Most part's on it are almost new or new condition. I bought it as it was a more realistic size for me (Im 5ft 7") and most bike's that were coming up for sale were 58" or more. Never once regreted buying this and it has been brilliant on the few occasion's i have been out on it. Size's are seat tube c-c is 19" or c-t 21 1/2". Top tube is c-c 20". It has shimano rsx rear mech and brake's and campag seatpost, headset and chainset. Chainset is 44t and i shall include a campag 52t chainring aswell for those big in the calf!! :lol: Has a prologo kappa saddle (New), New Michelin Orium tyre's, New 7 speed cassette,Alex AT450 wheel's, ultegra bar end shifter, new cabling throughout and Look Keo Classic pedal's and i will include a pair of size 8 1/2 Look Carbon roadshoe's to go with it! Frame tubing is Colombus Nivachrom (Zona) , has a fantastic thin walled ting when flicked and is in fab condition with only a small amount of chip's as it has a stove enamelled finish which was extra at the time of build and includes detail's as chrome dropout's on frame and fork's and internal top tube cable routing! Has 3TTT alloy straight blade fork's ans stem. Today's Nimbus selling price for the frame alone is £940, see website. All in all, a good condition, reasonable spec, handbuilt bike that has many year's left in it. Looking for £240 for it collected from Liverpool and i might post at cost. Thank's for looking, Dave.
