    Could I interest you in my little friend?

    It's a Specialized Tricross 56cm or 58cm (I can't seem to find which[!], I just know it fits me and I'm 5'11).

    It's very comfy bike and can take long miles without a problem. I did a 6000km tour across the U.S. on her in 2010, plus flights there and back, without anything negative to comment.

    Last month I found a crack in the rear rim so obviously that will be replaced beforehand, or I can let you do that yourself and we can cut a deal.

    Let me know anyway - I'd be looking for c. €400 - I think that's fair.

    I have her set up different to the pic but the general specs are:
    - Front carbon fork
    - FSA vero cranks
    - Shimano Tiagra shifters
    - Shimano Deore XT rear derailleur
    - Shimano Deore 11-34t rear sprocket; triple on the front
    - Conti Gatorskin tyres

    Thanks.

    Hi, I saw this ad for a Surley Long Haul Trucker 56cm frame, would it be of interest?
