Selling my Cervelo C3. Bought new by an acquaintance in 2019, ridden by me for the last few months. Very lightly used. Excellent condition, with only a few very minor, cosmetic marks and a bit of shoe rub on the chainset.
The C3 is billed as an endurance bike, suited for long rides and poorer surfaces and is excellent for those kind of rides. I ride a lot in the Lake District, and the combination of a wide gear range, bigger tyres and disc brakes make days going up and down those climbs a whole lot more fun. I would say it's the best bike I've ever descended on. However it's also light and responsive. The riding position is more upright than a race bike, but there's adjustment for those who like it more aggressive. Likewise there's space for 32mm tyres if you want to tackle rougher stuff. There's even fittings for mudguards, if you want the fanciest winter bike going.
Groupset is r8070 ultegra di2 11 speed. Front pads are new, rear only a few rides old. Gearing 50-34 front and 11-34 rear. 160mm discs.
Wheels are Mavic Aksium disc in black.
Finishing kit is Cervelo branded stuff, apart from the saddle which is Fizik Antares v5.
Tyres are Continental GT 28mm, with lots of life left in them.
Comes with original handbooks and di2 charger.
