https://www.gumtree.com/p/bicycles/classic-look231-road-bike-58cm/1191592747

could not help went to view and just could not help but buy it, will fit wider tyres tonight and go for a good blast tomorrow morning, any guess how much it is worth or how much i paid?

I dunno now much it is worth, but it must be quite rare. It is the first bike I've seen in a long time with a slammed seatpost.

lol, put it down to check it was not stuck in frame, ultegra shifters and brakes will try and get it to all ultegra ebay allowing.

thanks martin,seems a great bike just changed tyres, pedals and a few adjustments really delighted with it and only paid £110,tbh i paid more for a frame by giant that is very similar,did not really want another bonded carbon but at that price could not resist, unless theres a thunder storm i will give it a maiden voyage tomorrow.
