    It was £428.38 (incl. shipping) originally and is in excellent condition, and has been kept inside since new. That stem pictured isn't original, I probably have a shorter one if required.

    Currently £319 (€370-ish) incl. shipping here:

    I'm looking for €250 which is less than half what I paid for it in November 2012 (€530+pedals).

    I'm based near Greystones but can possibly have it brought in to Dublin 2.

    Other than the stem change I've added what I believe to be amongst the lightest flat pedals in the world, Tioga Surefoot Compact.

    It's an amazing little bike. The only real issues are that the brakes and downtube shifters aren't terribly high spec and are a little stiff for puny hands, so I would not recommend for steep descents. I had intended to upgrade them but never got round to it before the rider outgrew it. It might just be a question of higher spec pads and cables.

    Seeing this bike ridden at speed by a tiny rider is really something special.

    To give a sense of scale, here's a pic of it about to be raced with possibly inappropriate levels of seriousness and a number of Euro rules broken.
