FS: Boardman Road Comp size L

    Bought this a few weeks ago as a winter bike, but it's just too small for me. It's size L. I ride a Trek 58cm, but this is more like a 56cm.
    It's from February this year. Great condition with a couple of small marks on the top tube, and on the brake levers. Had my LBS tighten up the gears when I got it, so running like a dream.
    This has aluminium frame, with carbon fork. Compact chainset. Tiagra shifters. Tiagra front mech and 105 rear mech. Ritchey DS Pro wheels and Conti Ultra Sport tyres. Ritchey bars and stem. Carbon spacers. Crud Road Racer mudguards fitted.
    Since getting it I've added a comfy Specialized body geometry saddle. It's currently on flat pedals, but a set of toe-strap pedals will be included, as are the bottle and cage in the pics.
    The only small issue with the bike is there is a loose spoke nipple in the rear rim. This causes a slight rattle, but only at walking pace. Any quicker, and centrifugal force keeps it in one spot. Easy fix (just remove tyre, tube & rimtape and shake it out) but I've never bothered as it's not really a problem.
    Looking for €400 please. Bike is in Lucan, and inspection is welcome.

    Now €400 for a beautiful Tiagra/105 equipped road bike that's less than a year old

    I have a BMC CX02 cyclocross frame in 58cm which makes a great winter trainer, taking full mudguards too. you could swap over the groupset and wheels onto it. you wouldnt lose as much money buy doing something like this. I have my BMC for sale on this site.

    Cheers mate. To be honest, I've come to the conclusion that I don't really need a winter bike at all. I'm a recreational cyclist, and if the weather is nasty, I'd rather just stay inside :D

    Absolute bargain for e400. I've owned one and probably did a bit more riding on it than the seller did on his. Very responsive and light.

    How tall are you bogman? Where and when did you buy the bike?

    Hi mate. I'm 6'2". I bought the bike on gumtree about 3 weeks ago. Only did about 75km on it myself.

    bogmanfan, I would be interesting in having a look if it's okay. I would be looking to offer in the region of 325-350.

    Hi positron, you're welcome to have a look, but I'm looking for as close to €400 as I can get.
