Ribble Sportive Bianco, size medium 52 cm sloping (geometry here: http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/assets/images/Sportive_Geometry.jpg, roughly equivalent to a 54 cm conventional frame).
Groupset is SRAM Rival 10-speed with carbon brake levers, compact 50-34 chainset and 11-28 cassette. Wheels are Pro-Lite Bracciano (nice and light) with Michelin Pro3 Race tyres (front nearly new, rear good condition).
The bike will come with a Genesis saddle, not the Fizik Arione in the picture. No pedals, but can supply a set of flats if required.
The bike has a few scuffs but is in generally very good condition. Only used in dry weather, never for commuting. In the past two years it has only been used for a couple of two-week cycling holidays.
Asking price is
£575£550 collected from King's Cross only (no posting, donation to forum upon sale).

Was the board replaced under Apple's recently launched replacement program?

Or longer ago when the boards Apple were using were likely to fail again?

The irony on all of this is that it's not much different to the ways that companies try and avoid (not evade) paying certain taxes, or limiting their liabilities. It's just on a smaller/individual scale under the guises of "good intentions".
Hardly the same as it's a scheme set up by the government to encourage people to cycle rather than something invented by a dodgy accountant to save a millionaire from paying their fair share of tax.
The government could make this all so much easier by scrapping these schemes and just getting rid of VAT on all cycling related stuff (even top end bikes).
If they did this the government would lose 20% tax on every bike sold rather than approx 25% on Cycle to Work purchases only.
