I have a 2010 Specialized Allez 16 in a 58. Bought in late Jan/early Feb 2010 from Cycleways.

I have recently replaced the bar-tape and put both a new chain & cassette [12-26], and new brake blocks on it. It's a standard double [53/39] and is Shimano 2300. There are a few small marks on the frame - stone chips etc - but it is in other wise perfect condition. Never crashed or dropped. Aluminium frame & carbon front fork.

The wheels pictured are unfortunately not for sale, though I can put some AlexRims R500 on it that have very little mileage.

Relaxed geo so would be good for someone that's not very flexible, and I have a choice of stem lengths 110/100/90 that you could try out to see which suited you best.

€500

The bike is currently in Cork and I am in Paris until next weekend. If you were interested in viewing in Cork that could be arranged though.

Would you consider 450 for the bike i live in clare so would be abit of a drive were in cork is it exactly?

I'll split the difference and do it for €475 if you want to travel and take it this weekend. It's in the Glanmire area.

Dont know cork city very well would you consider meeting outside north of cork city mallow road?

That could probably be arranged, when would you be planning on arriving in Cork? As I said, I'm going to be abroad unfortunately so will be reliant on someone else to bring it. There's a petrol station, a Topaz/McDonalds here, on the Mallow Road where I could get it to.
