What is this bike?!

[Daveys123]

Hey
Just had the nod that this could either be a complete fake or a decent bike, I'm a roady and inherited this too small for me ? Litespeed. It's got decent kit on it but not sure at all!!

The headtube badge looks like handsome dog which was British, although i expect the frames were far eastern. Does a magent stick to the frame ?. That will tell you if its ltitanium and possibly a Litespeed or something else. Im looking at the pics on my phone but I think you will find the magnet sticks so it's a.steel frame.

Thanks for that, yeah steel so basically a bag of nuts then!! Any value in it?

Yes some value, a litespeed would have been a lot more. Looks to be a full Deore LX groupset, Mavic rims and the X-Lite bars. My guess would be perhaps £80 or so as it stands but not much is selling at the moment so I normally sell stuff pretty cheap just to get it gone.

woh there, just cos it's steel doesn't make it a bag of nuts.

the handsome dog XC frame was Tange double butted chmo tubing, and pretty light for it. It was a good ride.

80-100 would be my guess as no one is buying anything right now.

Thanks guys, appreciated!
Best platform to flog it? It's no good to me and tbh I could do with getting rid of it! I'll happily chuck it on at a ton
