Lapierre Spicy 316 Medium 46cm Mountain Bike Bicycle 2010 Excellent Condition

I haven't been able to ride for 3 years and have already sold all my other bikes, but I haven't been able to sell this one until now as it was my favourite, couldn't bear to let it go!!

Its a real head turner, definitely the nicest looking bike I've owned and I've owned quite a few.

Its a 26er and a true pleasure to ride. Great handling and way more fun than a 29er.

I've stripped, cleaned and lubricated most of the bike and fitted a new chain.

A fair bit of it is original spec, as the original spec was very good anyway.

At some point I changed it over from 3 x 9 to 2 x 9.

The Chainset and the rear cassette are in good condition and still have plenty of life left in them.

The front derailleur could do with a bit of adjustment and I removed 2 links before fitting the new chain, but it could probably do with another 2-3 removing, still a bit on the slack side.. I thought probably best to leave this to the new owner as everyone likes their bike setup differently anyway. Rear derailleur is spot on. Fork and rear shock are good. Bit of wear to the tyres, but not much.

Brakes are great too.

I would say it's pretty big for a medium. I'm over 6'2" in height and found it fine for me.

Cosmetically I would say it's in very good shape for it's age. There are a few chips to the paintwork here and there, but nothing too noticeable.

Its a fantastic bike and whatever you could get new these days for £750 from Halfords/Decathlon wouldn't even come close!! Lol
