    As title.

    Deal breakers:

    - Can't be any older than 3 years.
    - Taken care of/regularly serviced. Rims/Chain/cassette/brakes must be in good condition and have plenty of life left.
    - Shimano 105 or equivalent.

    Would like:

    - Giant TCX

    Won't consider:

    - Anything that looks like it climbed out of a Garda bike auction
    - Anything that requires travelling outside of Dublin (northside at a PUSH!)

    I'd probably go with a M, I had a M TCR before. Not sure how different the geometries are but I definitely couldn't see myself being a L.

    Guys, do you have any recent photos of the Fuji?

    Cannondale is probably a bit pricey for Tiagra, considering the options available from Canyon and Planet-X. However, if you have some photos of it, it might help persuade me.

    Thanks for the replies guys.

    I have a M Giant Tcx 2 which I'm looking to sell. Bought it on here a few months ago with the intention of racing a good bit but work conspired to scupper that so I've only had it out for a few training runs and one race in Bray. It's also a bit big for me so I'd prefer to get something smaller for use in the future.

    The spec isn't as high as you're looking for but I'd be willing to do you a good deal on it. It's a 9 speed with sora shifters and chainset, tiagra front and rear mech, tiagra cassette, tektro cantis and Kenda clinchers. Can post up pics later today/tomorrow morning.

    Let me know...
