Looking for road bike or hybrid x2

[dodd82]

Hello

A friend and I are looking to buy a new bike.

He is looking to pay £250 approx, and I would probably pay up to £500.

We will almost exclusively be riding on the road, with a small amount of canal path.

I am 6'1" and he is 6'"3 - I'm not sure about how the sizing of a bike works.

Please let me know if you have a bike that you're looking to sell that you think would meet one of our requirements?

Thanks

I'm looking to sell a Cannondale Quick CX 2010 which would fit your needs. I am 6"1' and it fits perfectly.

I can take pictures tonight if you're interested, but this is an internet picture of it:

It's in good nick, been regularly commuted on and ridden on a couple of sportives. I've changed the brakes to a Clarks set, but otherwise it's all original. Don't have the pedals (they were utter sh!te and the metal bent when I took them off), but I could send some cheap ones if needed.

Looking for offers around £350, but I'm pretty flexible as I need the space for a new arrival (bike, not child!). I am in Newcastle but would post at cost.
