I plan to take loads more photos and write a more detailed account - but here is a brief for sales thread to guage interest


Kona Jake 2011 model
59cm
Tiagra and Sora spec - triple up front, 9 speed at the back
wheels changed from stock to RS10
Upgraded to mini Vs - it stops well.
Recently been stripped and cleaned so now worries about problems such as seized bottom bracket etc - in fine working order


Purchased last year whilst I was studying in the states, and therefore has "Euro" braking - i.e. left hand is front brake and right hand is rear. It has been used to race cyclocross and road races and has the associated signs of usage - there are marks on the shifters and frame - but it still works brilliantly and is an aesthetically pleasing bike

RRP was just south of £1k.
My price £465 ono

Viewing in Fareham is welcome, I can also post at cost

If no interest at this price it'll be popped on ebay where the same model has recently sold for >£500
