Ooh, perhaps for the best. I was so close to saying Yes, but perhaps it would have been a little big for my lad. I think it is a 19" frame?

I hope you're going to ride it instead! A nice bike.

£100 for a Ti, silly cheap. Would make a great adventure bike.

 

[120308]

Yes, I thought that it was cheap enough for a TI / CroMo bike with some decent kit.
I used it for year round commuting, 5 days a week in all weathers, brilliantly reliable, tough enough for the job and always cleaned up nicely. I even used it on the turbo trainer a few times last winter.
After some "advice" from the wife, I've decided to keep it for a while, take off the rack and guards, swap to some mountain bike tyres and see if I like a retro mountain bike.

Let me know when you think of selling it again.

 

[120308]

Hey folks, I'll put it back up on the CC For Sale forum again if I decide to sell it!
Thanks for the interest.

I'll take it off your hands if you are willing to courier (I will pay courier charge)

Ian,
Started a conversation with you regarding your offer.

 

[ianrauk]

Well, here it is... Thanks Andy for an obviously well looked after and well packaged bike. @120308
Very surprised at it's great condition and how little it weighs, even with the guards and pannier.
This is the bike that is going to be riding the roads and trails with Ian Jnr...

 

[120308]

Glad that you are happy Ian, it should keep you going for a few years.
I think that we can also give Paisley Freight a thumbs up for the pick and deliver service. I've never used them before but a reliable next day bike delivery service for £23.50 can't be bad.

 

[ianrauk]

Picked up Tuesday, delivered Wednesday and a very helpful driver who put the box in the conservatory for Mrs Ian. Well done Paisley Freight.

Gutted, I thought this wasn't for sale anymore. Seller would have probably gotten more for the bike on an open sale.
