i love the saddle so much i've been tempted to put it on my carbon racey thing

I've got a neo retro KG 233 as well, I ride it in winter. TBH it looks cool, is comfortable and fun but the front forks are really narrow and i can only just ride 23mm.

lots of compliments tho, and the chrome is bling

This guy is classic

I put his number on my phone to check out his whatsapp profile...it is just a pic of an iphone LOL

Selling my turbo. In used condition but perfectly fine. Great for winter torture sessions

Comes with riser block and speed sensor and Ant+ usb stick for zwift etc.

£60

Im in Brixton

I've got KG 233 and I second. So comfortable and looks sharp with the chrome. Lots of compliments. Although you can only fit 23s on the front....just.

I should add it was only just too small for me. Maybe the carbon repair people could add a little bit on to the ISP (a really irritating feature). My old man is like 5'8. and the ISP was cut for him. If i was his height i would ride it as the clamp would be well below the damage but im fairly blase about this kind of thing .

See the photo for the damage. It is about 2-3cm and has been quoted on this basis. Basically they would repair the carbon and put some kind of basic protective black glossy paint over it.

You could get it properly painted white, but i wouldn't bother because you can't see this part of the isp because of the clamp.

The rest of the ISP just needs a clean, most of it is grime frame where i've taped it up for travelling

I've had a small TCR that was quite comfortable but but it is the ISP that is the issue, I can assure you if it fit me I wouldn't be selling it!

I'll have to check the measurements when I'm home because obviously the ISP has been cut, but from memory it is a medium:

M/50.0
Top tube: 55.50 cm
Head tube: 15.00 cm
Wheel base: 98.00 cm

Hello,

I'm moving and this has been sitting in my closet for ages, is a quite dirty as a result. It is a replica on Denis Menichov's bike to celebrate his 2009 Giro win. The bike is surprisingly comfortable for a pure race machine.

The frame weighs approx 1000g and the fork is 330g, included is carbon FSA headset, BB (may need a service) and long Giant seat clamp.

Basically my old man bought it (lol) in 2011 for a considerable sum from a Giant dealer in Melbourne. Used for some light riding in dry conditions for a few years.. Went to a Defy to improve comfort and it sat in his garage for year. I bought it over to London a few years ago and rode it maybe 12 times in summer. It is just slightly too small for me...im 5'10.

£150

NOTE: I stupidly over-tightened the ISP when it was on the turbo, it is cracked at the very top. I've been quoted circa £180 to fix the crack at the top of the post or if you have a liberal attitude to risk you just ride it with the seat clamp set quite low assuming you are less than about 5'8.

Hello, I'm possibly interested....whereabouts in London are you based?

I've been commuting for like a decade with a backpack and am thinking of going a front rack on a charge plug. I've seen quite a few prommuters rocking it, can someone tell me if it is worth it, i.e pros and cons.

Looking for a fixie for new commute. Nothing too fancy, will probably get a beat. Around £200, somewhere around 54-56cm

Very cool

Lol, my old man is in melbourne and I also inherited a weapon of a bike from his garage

I've got a Dura Ace 7900 crankset switched bikes. I round off one of the bolts but got it out and put it in 'the box' for a few montsh. Lost the bolts somehow.

It seems that that that the pinch bolt come without washers only for the DA of the Hollowtech range. I tried to install ulterga hollowtech II bolts and the washers dont fit. I looked up the DA crankset installation manual and it seems to imply this but is not 100% clear. Can anyone confirm this? It is driving me a bit mad

what a beaut!

Scott weren't helpful, I've just bought a handful off ebay to try out including the shimano one... The first one was a fail. The issue is the flat part that feeds to the front derailleur, as most are rounded for a steel frame.

As an aside, there is someone in Liverpool who seems to have an archive of vintage cable guides. Lol.
