Description
Highly rated German road bike.
Purchased in 2018 for £1300 from ebay .It was a bargain back then.
Fully Ultegra - with rim brakes and internal cable routing. Not disc - in my view rim brakes are still the best on this type of all round road bike.
It is extremely versatile. I would also describe it as Unisex. Best fit would be someone with a 29. 5 inside leg measurement and a height of around 5' 9''. More detail on this matter can be found on ebay.
Upgraded in 2023 with carbon wheels.. The wheels were made to order in China for a cost of £700. I had to wait for around three months for their build. They are unbranded
and excellent.
It is an all round enduro/tourer and race bike. It weighs in at an astonishing 17 lbs.
The bike, both before and after the upgrade, has been almost completely unused. I have a spinal condition and have never taken to road cycling.
For the last two years, it has been locked into a direct drive tubo trainer. It needs to be dusted down and, off course, used. It was removed on three occasions from the tubo trainer, in order to maintain its mechanical good health.
In total it has been used for less than 6o miles. With the new wheels - maybe another 5 miles !! It has a very fluid feel to it. The build quality is outstanding.
I am selling it here for £760. Non negotiable. It is on ebay and the price there will be increased in the next few days.
I would prefer it to remain local . As of today, I have been contacted by one local male, and one local female cyclist.
