I'll take it! PM'ing

Am interested enough to take a closer look! PM'ed.

Holy crap. Not sure if I'm relieved or disappointed it's too big for me. Leaning towards disappointed.

someone asked about the angle of the Moots stem, which, I don't know. So i've taken a picture of it:

Not for sale, I know, but what handlebars are those? Carbon FSA New Ergos maybe? Are you happy with them? Are they more comfortable than aluminium (or other carbon) bars?

TIA.

I don't actually find BLB over-priced, though it seems many do. Now some Condor prices I would consider to be at a premium. Yet I've been willing to pay those too, thanks to the sound, non-hard-selling advice I've received there. That's besides the fact that some of Condor's stuff, and not just when on sale, is very competitively priced. Both shops will have my custom again.

Sorry to hear about Bicycle Magic, it would be instructive to know why their business plan failed.

Sorry - have had to change my mind. Somebody buy it before I change it again.

Hm, think I'll look in again in 10 hours time. =)

Bargain! I'll take the other, will text you now.

Apologies, I'm not sure, I guess 125 quid would work for cash on collection from N1 . . .

£125 for the pair, or each? Oh wait, you have two pairs, i.e. 4 bars?

Interested, but I think the advisory for this forum is for the seller to state their asking price.

Dibs Antares

Is it the 150mm or 190mm length (in height)?

Got it today. Thanks Tel!

DIbs!! (he shrieked... PM on way)

Cheers to the replies - might start that Duell thread myself, once I have something more useful to discuss about Duells. Given I have only the handlebar tape left to finish my build, that might not take too long. Would be really embarrassing if Skully, starting from the bare frame, beats me to it...

PPS. Off-topic, but when oh when will the otherwise well-conceived BELLA CIAO lightweight "ladies bikes" at the above link have a size smaller than 54cm? I would have thought it's the smaller women who are least able to make do with lightweight frames built for men.

PS. the link to the Duell Passion frames at http://bikesales4u.com/ is broken.

Anyone interested please let me know.

I'm not a Facebook fan, but a thread like this couldn't hurt - http://www.lfgss.com/thread2960.html

Just putting the final touches to my own first classic/modern mix Duell build - the test rides so far have been great!

love the seatpost! who bought all this, Satan?

In Campers, Brashers (casual shoe brands I use) and Asics sports shoes size 45 fits me fine. WIth Shimano cycling shoes I needed 46.

But to avoid repeating the buyer's remorse I experienced in spades with this purchase, I went to Condor, tried on shoes recommended by the salesman for someone with wide feet, disregarding brand name and appearance, and cycled off happily in Northwaves (size 45). A much wider shoe than others at that size, and nothing like as light or as solid an attachment to the pedal as the Sidis (which technically are superb), but at least now I don't think about or notice the fit while cycling.

So as I warned in my original post - Be sure you know this is the size you want!

For me they were a bit too tight but definitely too long. Perhaps I should have gone for a 45, and let the width wear in. I've made do with cheaper shoes since!

Not sure how they equate to other brands...

Still unsold, still in the same condition, sitting in their box pining for the day they'll see sunlight again.

De Rosa wrong size, so undibs. Yes, the Guerciotti is a nice frame, but 2 hours isn't a long wait for interest in it.

If it's about the same size and condition, provisional dibs on the De Rosa SLX :)

Where're you based, sash? I don't recognise that wall.
