For Sale: Revolution Country Explorer 2012 touring bike

[HorTs]

Selling only because I'm looking to get a do it all bike and don't have the room to keep this trusty cycle.

There are a few minor scrapes and rubbings but generally in great condition.

Upgraded to Avid BB7 disc brakes from new.

Will come with the rear rack (unbranded but did me proud on my JOGLE) and the low rider (Tubus Tara)

Size L/58cm.









£300.

Based in Portsmouth.

Hi @HorTs can I ask what handlebar bag you have on it in the photos? I have the Revolution Country Traveller and am looking for a bar bag for a 4-day tour to Islay in August. Looks a great setup on the bike! Many thanks, Mark

Nice looking bike, steel frame, bargain for someone.

Might have bought it myself had I not just dropped a wad on a new steel frame to put all the bits off of my ali framed Explorer on to....

Too big for me but a lovely looking bike for £300.............bargain

What's the effective top tube length? All I can find on the EBC site is centimetre sizing? Is it a 55 or 58cm seat tube?

Thanks

Its a 58cm seat tube.

The top tube is approx 54cm. Or 57.5cm from centre of seat tube to centre of head tube.

It will be supplied with basic platform pedals or you can negotiate a price for the little used Shimano XT PD-M780 XC pedals.

Shame. Too big for me but def a bargain for someone

 

[HorTs]

I'm 6ft and it's about perfect for me, I'd say it'd be good for anyone 5'10'' up to 6'2''.

And of course, although it is marketed as a touring bike it makes a perfect commuter/general use bike.

 

[HorTs]

I'll even throw in a set of lights.
