Originally bought from LGF as a donor bike but I couldn't bring myself to take it apart. Sadly, I now need the money and am forced to put it back up for sale.

The photo below is courtesy of LGF, photos further down this thread are as it is now and how the buyer would receive it.

I collected it from LGF for £170 and have since fitted cables and tubes so:

£180 collected
£200 posted

I hope people think that is fair, it's a cracking looking bike

£200 and a quality steel frame is better than any BSO...

Hi, can you pm me the full spec on the bike please? hubs/cassette/seatpost/bb etc etc, fairly interested and the size please?
 
Wold Ranger - I'll PM you with what I know but I don't know some of the details such as BB because they were fitted by LGF.

More pics below of the bike as the buyer would get it...it really is a lovely looking bike which shouldn't be split. If I didn't have a singlespeed project about to start then I would keep it, ride it and race it...and I bet it would beat a lot of people on carbon.

Seriously, £200 posted with a free sharkfin boys and girls...
