Dolan Ares *priced to clear*

    Size medium off dolan sizing chart with a sloping 55cm top tube c-c

    it was custom built in 2011 and hasnt seen mad mileage but has been used with expected signs of wear (odd chip here and there but nothing bad)

    full sram red componentry; shifters, calipers, crank, derailleurs.

    the frame alone new was €1600 and the red was bought new at the time so w/o wheels total cost was about €3500 for the bike.

    fizik arione saddle

    fsa wing compact bars (have vuka sprint bars if wanted)

    its a great bike but is slightly on the small side for me.

    it was a good friend of mine who originally owned but is now sponsored and rides a team bike but was bought in a local shop down here in cork.

    the price without wheels is €1195.
    i have a pair of mavic r sys (+400) and also a set of zipp 101's (+300 older model rim) which i could add with a cassette and tyres to get up and running if its a full bike you're looking for.

    i want this gone as it'll only be decaying in storage over the winter and wont get use.

    I'll consider offers if someone is looking at the groupset or the frameset.. but i wont be splitting for something like saddle only. preferably bike to go as one however..

    Hey,

    What is the seat tube on it ? Would you split the bike and sell the frame ?

    Cheers zip,

    hi zippe, yes id be willing to sell seperately but would be looking for enough to make up the 1195 by selling the other bits seperately i.e id need a somewhat decent offer. here is a geometry chart for you. its the medium, size 52 dolan size

    hiya im thinking 5ft 7 upwards. im just shy of 6ft (quite literally- 5ft11.5") and its fine but ive got the seatpost rocketed on it as you can see from pics.

    so im going to say 5ft7- 5ft11 realistically but always hard to judge these thing. absolutely ideal size 5ft8 to 5ft10 though. thanks for interest...

    just to clarify its not a standard size 52, its a dolan sized 52, just in case any misunderstanding..
