Thanks everyone
Price drop -> £275 -
Thanks to everyone for the kind words.
Regarding all the height questions, it's set up for me in the pictures at 6ft, non-aggressive position, with plenty of space either way for adjustment for taller or shorter folk.
I have two dibs for pickup and two dibs for postage in already, will contact everyone now. -
I had these built up for a project as the ultimate 26" rim brake wheelset.
Sadly that project is cancelled, so no point sitting on these beautiful wheels, time to sell.Front hub: SP Dynamo PV8, standard 100m QR, brand new
Rear hub: Royce, standard 135mm QR, lightly used
Spokes: Alpina, brand new
Rim: Sun Rhyno Lite XL, brand newThe Royce rear hub is definitely the highlight, these hubs have been described as "absolute perfection" and they are £310 on their own.
The Sun rims are also extremely difficult to find. Being nice and wide, they're ideally suited for the 2.1"+ tyres that most of us are running on 26" bikes.Price is £280 collected from N London. Postage is possible if nobody can collect.

Selling my Elephant NFE as a full build.
Astonishingly good gravel bike, tourer, monstercross, commuter, you name it.
Originally belonged to edscoble, rebuilt by me with the best components I could think of for the job.
Dynamo system, hydro-actuated brakes, faultless XTR-Dura Ace shifting, all there.
Extremely fun ride unloaded and low-trail geometry suits front loading perfectly for tours.
Reason for sale: ongoing COVID-induced loss of work.Price is £950 for everything you see in the pictures, minus saddle, pedals, cages, and light.
Also including a set of stainless mudguards custom adapted for the bike (not photographed).
Prefer pickup in N London, could post if it comes to it. Payment via Paypal G+S.

as always never buy a used MTB as a full bike from someone you don't know

painting a horse rasta colours is shameful

not as good as an XC bike
