    Selling a bike build that I have spent the last year on and off trying to complete.

    Basically bought the bike to build into a low maintenance city cruiser/commuter but ended up never really using it/finishing it because I prefer my other bikes and it's time to pass her on to a more committed/less lazy person. Has easily done less than 10km ever. The price reflects the "nearly new" nature of the components, but also the need for a bit of TLC.

    Bike comes AS IS with most parts need to complete it or else can be stripped and rebuilt as something else, up to you really. Am not willing to separate for parts.

    Bike and Specs can be found here and is a size Medium (54cm):

    I changed the handlebars to drop bars because I felt the original ride was too upright, and so have changed the break leavers and cables. Taped up with Brooks leather griptape. Original break leavers are included.

    Original Twist gear shifter has been removed and replaced with a trigger one, which also meant replacing the cable and needs to be dialed in. I actually bought one with a too short cable which I'm including for spares. The cable housing is taped on at the moment for testing.

    Replacement mudguards have been bought but not fitted and are included with the sale.

    I have swapped out the original wheel nuts with these anti-theft bad boys, originals will be included as well: https://www.bicyclebolts.com/products/locking-track-nuts-m9-m10

    Basically, the bike just needs a few hours worth of work and fiddling to make a beautiful low maintenance city bike/commuter. Fun little project for the New Year ;)

    Bike is based in the city centre side of Dublin 7.
