Bought as the 20/26 wheel Metathesis model in 2012 but the frame is the same as the MetaPhysic and Metaphor models. I’ve spent more time configuring and reconfiguring it than riding it so it probably has less than 1000 miles on it. I thought I’d sell it as a framekit plus bits because I expect most demand will be from people wanting to run it as a dual 26” or 700 high racer and I don’t have a fork or wheels for that. (The bits are listed to go with the frame, not to be sold separately.)
Frame with carbon seat (medium size), aluminium seat stays, idler, headset, foam seat pad and tiller bars. All cable housing internal to frame will be left in place. £725.
Novosport Comfort seat pad. £30
Deep drop caliper brakes and brake levers (cables included but cut to my size) £30 pair
BB7 Road disc brakes, rotors and brake levers (cables included but cut to my size) £60 pair
9-speed triple chainset, transmission and shifters. Bit of a hodge podge but fully functional. (Ultegra cranks shortened to 148mm with BB cups, 30-39-53 rings, 11-28 cassette, Sora FD, X5 RD, X7 rear shifter, SRAM 5.0 front shifter, KMC chain) £100
I also have a Bacchetta tweener handlebar set up (pivot, riser, bars) £75.
If you are interested in running a 20” (406 or 451) wheel on the front then the following may be of interest:
Tall 20” steel disk fork (room for 50x406 Big Apple tyre with mudguard or will take 451 rim, might take 507 rim) £40
20” carbon fork with aluminium steerer (caliper only, no mudguard) £60
Various 406 front and rear wheels, 451 front and 559 rear wheels with tubes and tyres at around £90 a pair.
I don’t want to post but will deliver/rendezvous as far as M25, M42, M5 (i.e. much of the South below Birmingham).
Links to photos below showing bike in various configurations. Pedals and racks not included.
