Frame and Fork
The Moser Speed is built on a 7005 T6 Alloy frame which is heat treated for enhanced strength and stiffness. It provides a light, responsive ride with reactive handling and plenty of feedback from the road. The frame features external cable routing throughout, twin bottle cage bosses and a replaceable forged aluminium derailleur hanger to preserve the frame in the event of damage. The fork features carbon fibre legs and an alloy steerer for reduced weight and agile steering characteristics.

Shimano Sora Groupset
The Speed comes equipped with Shimano Sora groupset components including brake levers/gear shifters, front and rear derailleurs and brake callipers. Sora offers smooth, serviceable shifting across 18 gears, dependable braking performance and neat, unobtrusive cable routing beneath the bar tape. The chainset is provided by FSA components and features 50 and 34 tooth chain rings for a great balance of top speed and climbing ability.

Fulcrum Racing 7 Wheelset
The specification includes Fulcrum Racing 7 wheels, offering fast acceleration, agile cornering and smooth rolling characteristics. Racing 7s features a clincher tyre profile, rim wear indicators and a 2:1 spoke pattern on the rear wheel for improved stability and power transfer. Quick release axles are provided for quick and easy maintenance and transport.

This item is well used and shows signs of wear and tear but is fully functional. Due to the bike not being used it has been stored without a chain as this is a consumable item and without use it would deteriorate. There is a small sign of corrosion on the inner chainring which can easily be cleaned up when a new chain is fitted. We recommend a new 9 speed chain, this can be purchased at all major retailers for around £12-15. The handlebar tape could do with being renewed for cosmetic reasons but it is functional.

I have recently renewed all brake and gear cabling and fitted a new set of continental tires. These alone cost more than I'm asking for the bike. This ad is truthful and I have provided images of areas which are "used".

Happy to discuss but the price is no lower than £75.
