Planet X Pro Carbon

[benb]

So to make room for my new arrival, I'm selling my Planet X Pro Carbon.
Size is XL, which I think is 61cm. It was bought in 2013, and has done roughly 2,800km.

Since I bought it, I upgraded the stock wheels to Shimano RS81 which have done 1250km.

I do need to give it a good clean, and remove the RideLondon mile sheet sticker, but other than that, the only thing that needs looking at, is that the left shifter is a touch lower than the right. I think I'd let the new owner fiddle with that.

Any interest on here? Purchase price was £999 I think, I remember getting it on cycle2work.
I'm not really sure how much it's worth now. It's in decent condition, just a couple of cosmetic scuffs.
Does £200 sound reasonable? If not, make me an offer.

Sure, let me give it a wipe down. Any particular bits you want zoomed in?

Just a mixture showing the warts etc etc and the general condition

Out of interest what is the measurement between top of bars and floor please

What do you reckon, 95.5 or 96?

More photos. As you can see, a couple of minor scratches ( I photographed all the ones I could find - there may be more I didn't spot), and I didn't get all the dirt off. Bar tape needs re-doing. I've got an unopened pack of Profile Design tape in blue which I'll chuck in if you want.

Bar tape, free with the bike!

Tell you what, I was planning to complete the blue look, but never got round to it, so have these tyres as well.

That’s a bargain for somebody, GLWTS!

Great bargain; if only I was longer (story of my life). Where are you out of interest - maybe an opportunity for my bro to go carbon? Cheers

Edit: dropped you a PM

Hey @benb, I'm definitely interested in buying this! Happy to pay the asking price of £200 and pick up this weekend?

Hi

Cheers, just waiting for Kernow to decide if he wants it. If he passes you get next dibs.

Yes mate, I'll have it for him provided we can sort logistics - have PM'd you.
Cheers

@benb top man; was good enough to bring the bike (which is for my suitably and similarly vertically enhanced brother) on his family holiday - just 45 mins from where I live - to save me the cost and rigmarole of courier, for nothing more than good karma and a half decent (I hope) bottle of red.

Many thanks
