The seatpost clamp is not included I'm awaiting a new black one and am re-using the red one. Asking price, including UK shipping, is £1600, but there are parts I could keep so this could be reduced as follows:-

If you collect then £20 off, £8 off if bottle cages not wanted, £4 for grips, £15 for bars, £5 for pedals, £8 for chain tensioner, £12 for seatpost, £15 for saddle, £8 for inner tubes, £40 for tyres and £8 for SS spacer/cog kit. So if you don't want those bits and collect then the total price would be £1457.

Bike is setup as SS with 2:1 ratio right now but only needs a couple of bits if you want to run a 1 or 2 by 9/10. I just didn't see any point in buying the parts myself just to sell straight on at a loss. Most is new or as new the highest mileage is the wheelset which has about 150 road only miles. Spec as follows:-

Geometry - if you think Singular Swift or Salsa el Mariachi then you're very close. I'm 6'1" fairly standard proportionally. This was designed for the rigid forks but with a mind to being able to run 80/100mm suspension forks as well. I suppose it could run 120mm forks but I think that would be pushing it.

Frame - Burls custom Ti designed around the On-One forks, disc brake only, HT 130mm 72 degrees for standard external headsets, ST 34.9mm 508mm CtoTop and 452mm CtoC 40mm extension above TT and forward facing seatclamp slot, 73 degree angle. TT is 592.9mm actual, 620mm effective and has a 17.1 degree slope. BB shell is standard 68mm width, 60mm BB drop and has been faced. DT is oversized at 45mm. Chainstays are 445mm and S-bend style as are the seatstays. Full rack and guard mounts on frame, not on forks. DT derailleur cable routing and TT/Seatstay brake cable routing, zip tie cable clamp style. Front centre is 662.2mm, forks are 45mm rake and 470mm AtoC, steerer has been cut but you can see there are still spacers above and below. All fittings have stainless steel socket head bolts in them greased, whether in use or not. Full CAD drawing supplied with all the details etc.

Bottle cages- plain black Nimrod, new
Bar grips - cheapish ergo style push on - new
Bars - On-One Mary bars, black 31.8 clamp - slightly used
Chain - 9 speed SRAM PC951 with quicklink and some spare links to adjust - new
Chainset - Tiagra road triple square taper with Stronglight 24t inner and 40t middle rings and an outer bashguard, all new barring the cranks
BB - Shimano UN54 122mm to give a 49mm chainline in the middle ring - new
Headset - Hope black
Pedals - some old plain black BMX platform style
Brakes - Tektro Auriga Comp removed from a Specialised Crosstrail, they have brand new pads and a spare set of pads would be included, rotors are matching and have plenty of life in them
Forks - On-One carbon rigid 29ers and I've added a stick on M-Part cable clamp to the top of the disc forkleg - new
RD - Superstar chain tensioner new
Cassette - Superstar SS spacer kit, lockring and SS 20t cog new
Seatpost Clamp - M-Part 34.9 plain black, new, actually hasn't arrived yet, bolt up
Spacers- BBB superlight plain black new
Stem - 120mm 6 degree plain black new
Seatpost - On-One Twelfty 31.6x400 new
Saddle - SMP hooknose used
Wheels - Hope Pro II hubs on Mavic TN719 rims black, disc only, 36h built with strength in mind. Shimano skewers, black, and velox rim tape
Tubes - Schwalbe 29er presta valve 1.9" to 2.35" new
Tyres- Halo Twin rail 29x2.2" new

Reason for sale - Justin is making me another 29er frame almost identical to this but with Rohloff specific moveable dropouts(these weren't available when I originally specced the frame). The frame was originally built up with a Rohloff using a mini EBB, and specific Rohloff add-ons, for tension and torque. I then decided to use all those parts, including the rohloff, on another frame. To re-Rohloffise this frame would cost about £300 in the extra little bits, alternatively I could buy another frame that was Rohloff ready and sell this one. Costwise it works out about the same, I'll be taking a £300 hit either way, it just made more sense to me to do it this way.

Viewing is welcome, test rides are welcome, but don't be offended, this isn't leaving my sight/reach without the money up front.
