Hi Matt, do you have a 'buy now' amount at all? I'm looking for a basic road bike for commuting and this'd suit.

 

[Matt1705]

I hadn't really given It much thought. I'm selling it because I'm skint and haven't got the patience to sort out the gears etc.
Also gives me an excuse to buy a triban 3

All Sensible offers considered :-)

My budget's about £80 - it's to replace the Raleigh Airlite whilst my insurance claim with Leeds City Council goes through. Althought they're naturally fighting it. I'm passing your way on the evening of the 20th.

Currently I'm relying on a 1980's Raleigh Team for 150+ commuting miles a week and it's showing the strain. There's a couple of possibles locally but I've not followed them up yet.

 

[Matt1705]

A little less than I'd hoped, but probably fair considering the bikes condition. and as you're not rushed you may as well wait for the auction to end. You might even get It cheaper ;-)

 

[DCLane]

No problem. You never know - like bikes near me it may go for a stupidly high sum. It seems as if everyone in Yorkshire's got TDF fever when it comes to road bikes!

 

[DCLane]

@Matt1705 - I've managed to pick something up very reasonably today so won't be needing another road bike.

However, hope the auction goes well.

 

[Matt1705]

Ok thanks for letting me know, itit's attracting more attention than I was expecting for th early days :-)

 

[Matt1705]
