Yep, let it go for £275 in the end I think... really enjoyable ride, but just a little too small for me to be fully comfortable on it.

A lovely bike: elegant frame & paint scheme. The Mavic starfish chainset is well sought after.
I was two years too late

The chainset would be the first thing I’d change, it’s a marmite, not for me.
