[For Sale] Sportive / commuter bike. Ultegra.
I had this bike built as a commuter bike but never used it. In fact its done less than 50 miles and looks new. It makes a great Sportive and winter bike.
The frame is an aluminium Specialised Tarmac with carbon forks, resprayed and personalised to make it less nickable. I think it is a nominal 57cm frame. I'm 6ft and it fits me.
The bike will take mudguards and a rack.
The rest of the spec is:
Shimano 11 speed Ultegra 6800 levers, front mech
Shimano 105 GS rear mech
Spyre disc brakes
Shimano RX31 QR wheels
Shimano chain set and FSA 50/34t chain rings
Shimano 105 rear block 11-34
Challange Strada Bianca tyres (33mm)
3T Ergonova handlebars and stem (I have lots of different lengths and angles to choose from)
Carbon fibre Specialized seat post
Fabric saddle
Its a lovely bike to ride, but its just one of many and SWMBO is insisting I have a clear out
I'm looking for £700 ono.

Sadly, too far away, and I'd like to get properly measured first. Looking to fund any purchase via the Cycle2Work scheme so that I get the tax break and fund it over 12 months.
If you'd had it built as an electric bike, would it be an e-moo??.

Don't give up the day job!
I had the bike built last year. The frame was painted by Argos cycles in Bristol and cost over £300!
Levers, cables and brakes are new on but bought two years ago.
Handlebars and stem, two years but used.
Wheels and tyres two years, maybe three but are true and run nicely.
Seat post and saddle new on.

Agree, lovely paint job.
Compact frame but headset height gives it away. Too small for me I'm afraid by a couple of sizes.

Surely that's impossible?Just 'cause you got the power... that don't mean you got the right.
