• forgot the "mate"
  

good luck building it with same crank set and stem for under £300

After 2 years of getting dusty I've decided it's time to (reluctantly) sell my track bike.
It's been ridden only a handful of times on the track only. No crashes.

I am 5'2/ 158cm and is a perfect size for me with room either way.
1 subtle cosmetic scratch - mainly from carrying over the shoulder.

For sale:
Size: 45cm Pre Cursa Frame- matte black
Alpina Carbon/Alloy Track Fork (No Brake Hole) (cut with 4 inches spare). Matte black - red trim
(Matching) Alpina seat post & clamp
SRAM S100 Powerspline crankset + chain
Cinelli Ant black stem 60mm*

Pick up from Windsor only.

(*wheels, Alpina bars and Fizik saddle not included in this sale, but get in touch if interested. I am not interested in selling the frame only.)

Used on my Felt Z3 but still in perfect condition.

Variable shape makes for a super comfy ride. Before taking these off the bike I did think they were carbon due to weight and vibration management.

Upgrading to a small bar.

£30 + postage or collection from Windsor

DM me to dibs.

• Base of the saddle is infused with 17% carbon to maintain its shape over time
  
• Titanium Solid rails are a 3/2.5 Titanium which makes them very light

I am selling my Brompton as I no longer require it for my commute. Fantastic condition, well looked after and serviced with upgraded components. Only used on a short commute to/from station on occasions.

• Brompton S2L 2 speed folding bike sport edition
• Slick tyres (upgraded) with mud gaurds fitted
• 2 brand-new Schwalbe Marathon tyres are included in the sale.winter tyres provided
• Brompton lights included in the sale.

Upgrades:

It has always been taken care of and regularly serviced. As with all fold up bikes, there are some, but not very noticeable cosmetic scratches and some dull areas on the paintwork where cables have rubbed, however I have covered most of these with protective stickers to stop any further damage.

This is a fantastic bike, speedy and versatile.

Yes, unfortunately they have - sorry!

tarifa is a good hippy hang out in the summer full of windsurfers and kite surfers

Now I'm thinking I should build a day or two of Windsurfing in too! Just more kit to travel with.

Thank you everyone! This is really helpful.

Also had this response back from Andy at CycleFiesta.com:

Regarding cycling in the Sevilla region, there are a few possibilities, but it is quite difficult to get to the mountainous areas from Seville, unless you have your own car, or are prepared to travel for several hours by bus/train.

If you would like somewhere mountainous, then Ronda is the best location. It is situated between the cities of Seville and Malaga and has two mountain ranges on its doorstep. There are several beautiful climbs here over 1,000m, and the town itself is historic and very interesting. The only problem is that it is quite difficult to get to from Hacienda de San Rafael unless you have a car. The train does go there, but you would have to catch it from Cordoba, as there is no direct line from Seville.

The other option would be to stay in one of the towns to the east of Sevilla (Carmona/Ecija). These are beautiful towns and easily accessible but the area is flat, unless you are prepared to do long circular routes to the north (120km+). It is also very hot here in September.

The area to the south-west of Sevilla is a National Park (Donana), but it is no good for cycling, as it is almost entirely marshland, with very few roads going through. To the north of Seville, there are some mountains, but to get there you have to cycle through some quite boring areas and also some roads which can be quite busy. Likewise, the entire south coast is very busy in September, so I'd recommend trying to stay somewhere inland.

You're welcome.

Might want to consider moving this thread here

How do I do that? :/

Sierra morena and the donana park are nice areas and relatively close to the coast. The wind can be a bitch that time of year.

I started cycling in Amsterdam - so I'm not really allowed to complain about the wind. Thank you, I'll check these out :)

That'd be southern Spain then. Personally I'd set up base near Granada if you want to climb some nice mountains, only about 3 hours away from Seville in a car.

You are totally correct in it being southern Spain... I was thinking about the coast line.

I can't see any previous posts specific to cycling in this area of Spain, so here goes a new thread.

I'm heading to a wedding just outside of Seville in September (last weekend of La Vuelta in fact) and thinking of extending my stay and getting some sunny miles in. Has anyone stayed and cycled in this region before? Can you recommend places to stay which has good cycling routes and a decent village/town for eating out in the evenings etc?

I'm not interested in organised tours etc - ideally I want to hire a villa (and invite some friends) and arrange our own rides.

Any recommendations and advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
