Dolan Preffisio Road Bike

Description

This isn't your standard off-the-shelf bike. This is a Dolan Preffisio—the legendary UK-designed winter trainer—built with a hand-picked "best of" component list. It’s fast, reliable, and features a high-quality "Shimpagnolo" setup that provides a much more engaging ride than modern entry-level bikes.

Sizing Guide
Frame Size: Large (Approx. 56cm–58cm)
Recommended Rider Height: Roughly 5'9" to 6'2" (175cm – 188cm)
Fit: Traditional road geometry with a comfortable, upright position for long commutes or winter training.
High-Value Components
Shifters: Campagnolo Daytona 9-Speed Ergopower – Rare, sought-after Italian shifters. Unlike modern plastic units, these use a micro-ratchet system that allows you to "trim" the derailleur perfectly to eliminate chain rub. Very tactile and mechanical feel.
Crankset: Stronglight Delta Twin-Speed – Lightweight, classic French-made cranks. Very stiff and efficient.
Wheelset: Shimano RS Series – Solid, straight, and reliable hubs/rims built to handle UK roads.
Frame/Fork: Double-butted 7005 Aluminium frame paired with a Carbon Fiber Fork for a smooth, vibration-damped ride.
Features & Condition

Condition: Mechanically sound and shifts cleanly through the gears once you get the "feel" for the micro-ratchet system. Please note some minor paint bubbling on the frame (cosmetic only, typical for an aluminium frame of this age).
Summary: An honest, high-performance bike with "pro" level components at a fraction of the cost of a new build.
