    i have that for sale if its any good to you. 52cm frame might not suit though.

    Thats the 2009 model is it, if you were close i'd go and have a look. Can you confirm how much mileage is done on it and what you would take for it, i also have a concern about the wheels as i think these would need to be replaced so i guess that would come down to the price.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 84 ✭✭keelang


    Yea it is the 09 model, would have done no more than 800km as it was only used for doing triathlons and a bit of training leading up to races, the wheels were also fairly unused maybe 100-200km on them as i had a set for racing on,

    I go to UL however am starting placement this Monday coming, back at home in Donegal. viewing can be arranged if you are genuinely interested, though more to the end of next week if that suits.

    Price is fair I think , however make me an offer, the worst I can say is no ! :)

    Ok sounds promising, i'll have a closer look at felt sizing at the weekend and see what i can get wheels for and will let you know next week.

    Thanks

    If you are looking for something high end, I will shortly be selling my 51cm (535mm across the top tube) Cervelo P3C. Its a black and white 2007 model. I dont have a pic of the bike handy right now, heres a small blurry one of it in action http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/picture.php?albumid=1466&pictureid=10118. Low mileage (just a couple of dozen short TT's). No scratches, pretty much showroom - and those who know me on boards will confirm that when I say showroom, I mean it.

    Some extravagantly expensive Pro Missile straight bars (with dropped grips - one of the lightest and meanest bar setups available) with 90mm Ritchey WCS stem. I can put a Selle Italia SLR Flow saddle on it, or a Fizik Arione if preferred. Sram carbon brake levers. Groupset i.e. shifters, front, rear derailleur, cables, brake calipers are campagnolo record carbon 10 speed.

    No pedals, will put on a Sram Red Crankset and standard GXP bottom bracket. Specialized Aero bottle and cage.

    Keeping the wheels, but will provide with a brand new, unused set of Campagnolo Khamsin training wheels which come with a Veloce cassette and an unused pair of Continential Triathlon tyres for TT's. Brakes come with carbon pads and also a set of Koolstop pads (unused) for aluminium training wheels. I will also provide a Campagnolo Record 11-23 cassette to put on your race wheels. If you already have Zipps and they are Shimano, I can give you the Zipp Freehub to convert them to campag (similarly I have a campag freehub for a Powertap also, if you have one of those). If you were set on a pair of aero wheels, I probably could provide an old set of Mavic Cosmic Carbone SSC's (the slightly heavier models before the SL's - 52mm deep). Have put the newer white decals on them, so they suit the bike. You'd need to pay about 50 bucks for a Mavic ED10 campag freehub for them.

    2k with the Khamsins. 2250 with the Cosmics. 2350 for the lot.

    Bike sounds good and after some sizing at the weekend i may well be a 50/51 in a TT which has surprised me. Unfortunately my budget won't push that far though, i really need to be getting a bike plus race wheels for under 2k and given the extra spec you have built on, that has probably it taken out of consideration. If i was to go over 2k i prob would look at a new bike and sorting out a couple of bike to works. Thanks for your post though.

    It would be easier to sell complete, but if I was selling separate, the frame and bars are the valuable bits, so 1400 frame, fork, headset, bars, carbon spacers and a choice of a 90mm or 110mm stem. Plus aero bottle and cage.

    How much for the Cosmics if you would sell seperatley?

    Are you definitely interested at asing price because i would be more or less going down to Limerick for this reason only. the bike is in very good condition like there is a small scratch on the fork where it twisted around too far once also on the sides of the bars where the bike has been rested against something in the past and thats literally it. i can post pics of them if you want and it will be the Friday before i get down.

    Thanks,
    Keelan

    Well i may have an issue with the size, can you tell me what height you are and your inseam leg as this would be the biggest issue. The price i guess depends on the condition, if you could post a couple more pics especially of scratches that would be great as if you were coming down just for the sale i would want everything else to be agreed as i dont do messing around.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 84 ✭✭keelang


    i am 5ft 10 and have an inside leg of 31-32.the seat post in the pictures at the moment is suited to a 34 leg. these are pics of the scrapes purely cosmetic. everything else is perfect the gears change a dream wheels run true and the brakepads are newly changed. the one thing about the brakes is that the back brake is on the right but was never an issue for me.

    Thanks Keelan.

    The scratches are minor alright and would not put me off, neither the brake. The problem as i thought will be the size, i got this very wrong and now expect that i'm a 50cm as i am 5ft 8 and closer to a 30 inside leg. Didn't realise the drop in size for a TT. Thanks for the feedback and thankfully you didn't have to make the trip.
