For Sale: Gazelle special red Shimano Ultegra

I have for sale my Gazelle Special. I'm selling because I have to many bikes at this moment and I'm not using it anymore for my training. I have a magnificent LOOK 695 as my current training bike. This was is in a used but very reasonable condition. some small marks on the paint. yet still a shiny bike. chrome is in good condition no rust or scratches apart from the tiny "polish" scratches. the bike comes with a new Specialized new Toupe saddle.

I'm asking 350,- euro for it without shipping. The bike is in the Netherlands and shipping is in between 30 and 40 euro

Dibs if 58cm seat tube.

You're right dicki.

Size is 56 cm seat tube depending upon measurement. Im 180cm and the bike was perfect for me.
Frame is steel (reynolds 531 trapezi tube). Components are all Ultegra. Triple group, Wheels have Ultegra hubs and front rim is a 30mm FIR on the rear the rim has been replaced wit a 30mm Pro rim. Tires are Continental 40 seasons grand prix but can be replaced wit a pair of Vitoria's Corsa's. More photo's will follow

excellent frame!

a couple of extra pictures. Shown here with another saddle. tape and the Vitoria's.

I'll try to make more (detailed) pictures tomorrow.

lovely bike, but i measure in at about 176 cm, honestly, is this bike too big for me, or can it work with a shorter stem etc?

Sorry, no time today for more pictures and very cloudy weather here. I'll try to make some tomorrow.

Jason Watts, Im 180cm and was fine on the bike. seat and stem can off course be adjusted but I'm no specialist in bike fitting. However modern bikes come in less sizes then Gazelle used to deliver and the best position now comes from a different stem, seat, spacers etc. I think the top tube length is more important then the seat tube. I'll measure that tomorrow as well. Next to your total length the inner length of you legs should be measured. anyway, more tomorrow

thanks for a quick reply. my inside leg is approx 80 cm if that helps?

So lovely. Wish I had the cash.

This is lovely. I am super tempted too...

Is it full ultegra?

@pete4eyes: Yep full Ultegra. no pictures again today but tomorrow the sun will shine so I'l make some.

@Jasonwatts: I asked the bakeshop today and they said that if you've got 80 com legs you should drop the seat height about 2/3cm. which should be fine.

Sounds too big for me. It looks beautiful, good luck selling it on.

Hi Basix, is this still available?

Yep,still available. More pictures tomorrow

here are the extra promised pictures. Sorry for the poor quality. I'm not as good a photographer as some here on lfgss. I Just took the bike outside and took the pics. No extra polishing this is how it looks.

It looks great!

Can you give me a PM as I'm new to the site and it won't let me PM you yet (I supposedly need to post 3 threads before the site will let me). A friend sent me a link to your post, Im very interested.

Whats the black plastic strap around the bottom of the seat tube? Lovely bike, great pics, any of the drive side crank arm and chain rings?

@Maddmatt I will

@ Pete4eyes: It is a frame protector. It is mounted there to prevent the chain leaving the smallest sprocket and damage frame or crank. It is an quiet standard accessory. It was already on the bike when I bought it.

Maddmatt, did you get the PM?
