As 'featured' in Laidback Cyclist Issue 105 ('Something for the weekend').  Probably done about 1000 miles but just not enough free weekends now to use it properly!

Rough spec:
- medium seat (I'm 5'11" tall, previous owner was shorter) with pad (not Ventisit, more like HPVelo use)
- 2 x 9 with 53 / 38 on 150mm cranks, SX4 'rear' mech with SX5 gripshifters, Shimano 105 front mech (has cracked cage - repaired with Liquid Metal - has held for 3 years so far...)
- chain power idler guard (essential!)
- Kojaks front (wired) and rear (kevlar bead) on Crosser 24 spoke 406 front (about 2 years old, bearings not that smooth, but runs freely enough with no play) and Ritchey 24 spoke MTB rear (used, older than bike but rim OK)
- Shimano M475 disc brake on front, standard Avid V-brake rear
- includes Sigma BC506 computer, B&M mirror, rear led light, Norback frame pack with SKS mini-pump and wacky Tangent rear mudguard (which works surprisingly well) BUT NOT THE PEDALS shown in the pix

View by appointment in Steyning, West Sussex (01903 813178).  PM me or mdcroker at which.net for more info / pix.

£750
