TT bike for sale

    I am selling my Tri/TT bike. It’s a Felt B2 (56cm), 2009 model, for a picture and spec click on the link.
    http://2009.feltracing.com/09-catalog/time-trial-triathlon/tt-tri-series/09-b2.aspx
    I used it for 2 or 3 races in 2009 and then 5 or 6 races in 2010 and obviously some training spins before the races but basically there are not too many miles on it.
    The reason I’m selling it is because I’m just not using it, (I haven’t raced in 2 years). For such a good bike it’s a sin to leave it sit there.
    I paid €3400 for it new, I am looking for €1950 ono. I’m not in a panic to sell it, so genuine offers please! It’s in fantastic condition and as you can see from the link, the spec is top quality. It’s a joy to ride. It’s very fast, comfortable and smooth.
    It would make a very nice Xmas present for a loved one ;)
    I'm based in the Waterford area.

    Not that familar with the geometry of TT bikes in general so what height rider would this suit ? I'm 5'8 and usually use a 54cm trek road bike frame, would be interested in viewing if suitable, but dont want to waste your time if not, Cheers

    Its as big a frame as you'd want to go, you're welcome to have a look. Generally riders get as small a frame as possible so that the frame will have less flex. Check your inside leg lenght. Here's a guide I found on chainreactions;

    TT/triathlon bike size guide table

    Rider Height Inside leg Frame size Top tube length
    5'0" – 5'3" 152.5 - 160cm 26.5" – 28" 48 – 50cm 48.5 – 50cm
    5'2" – 5'5" 157.5 – 165cm 27.5" – 29" 50 – 52cm 50 – 51.5cm
    5'4" – 5'7" 162.5 – 170cm 28.5" – 30" 52 – 54cm 51.5 – 53.5cm
    5'6" – 5'9" 167.5 – 175cm 29.5" – 31" 54 – 56cm 53.5 – 55.5cm
    5'8" – 5'11" 172.5 – 180cm 30.5" – 32" 56 – 58cm 55.5 – 57cm
    5'10" – 6'1" 177.5 – 185cm 31.5" – 33" 58 – 60cm 57 – 58cm
    6'0" – 6'3" 182.5 – 190cm 32.5" – 34" 60 – 62cm 58 – 59cm

    Let me know if you're still interested.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5 Shameless_shy


    Thats a bit of a mess, sorry. Here's the ones you need anyway;

    5'6" to 5'9" rider height 29.5" to 31" inside leg lenght 54 to 56cm frame
    5'8" to 5'11" rider height 30.5" to 32" inside leg lenght 56 to 58cm frame

    To be clear, if a viewing is arranged without a deal being agreed in principle in thread first then no negotiation can take place at the viewing. Basically you must make an offer in this thread. If in the meantime someone offers asking price in-thread it's theirs regardless of the viewing

    Thanks

    No problem with that Beasty, just with no actual pictures or knowing if the size is right I thought viewing was best step forward, cheers

    There is absolutely no legal basis to what you are saying, just some arbitrarly assigned rules, similar to those agrred opon in a primary school play ground for a game of chasing.

    You are confusing Boards.ie with reality.

    No offence but how do Boards enforce this rule, is there a moderator going to be present at the viewing to ensure that no negotiations take place
