    Hi

    I am posting this for a mate.
    He is looking for a good second hand road bike that he will use for a daily circa 40km round trip commute. Dublin based.
    He can't do bike to work.
    His budget is 400 - 500 euro.

    Thanks
    Ruari

    How about this Retro puppy? :cool:

    Large lightweight Harding frame with reynolds 531 tubing, Shimano 600 derailleurs & chainwheel, Shimano 105 brakes, campagnolo shifters, Selle Italia turbo saddle. continental Gatorskin tyres with fuull treads. In excellent condition - no exaggeration but has been in a shed for a long time; I am about to clean properly.

    I will swap for a Garmin 500 with HRM & Cadence!

    Regards

    Hi

    I have an old la Pierre road bike. Aluminium frame, full carbon fork, Tiagra 9 speed triple group set. I am 6'3" and the frame is a 58 and suited me fine. Looking for €400. I can post a picture later on.

    Hi Ulick

    Pics would be good.
    What kind of mileage have you on this?
    Are you the original owner.

    Thanks

    Hey Ulick, I might be interested in your Lapierre, depending on year, condition, location, etc.

    Upon consultation with my mate the budget has been increased to €600.
    Surely someone has a bike suitable for that kind of money.

    Is this still for sale? Any movement on price? My max budget is €300.
