WTD Commuting bike

    Looking for a bike to use for a short commute - I think ill keep using my good bike for some commutes and get some longer commutes in if the weather allows.

    I would need an XL or 58-60, ideally it would be 11speed and rim brakes compatible, can live with a frame only or part build.

    Is there anything suitable out there? Cant imagine I'll get much of a budget from the good lady

    I'm based in Clare/Limerick but travel to Dublin quite often

    I've a Cube Peloton Race if you are interested. It's a size 60 with a full 11sp 105 groupset. Alu frame with carbon fork. Just fully serviced with brand spanking new 105 11-32 cassette and 105 chain with zero kms on them. Wheels are Aksiums shod with Schwalbe Durano Plus tyres (25s - perfect commuter tyres with maybe only 200kms on them).



    Would take €480. Was going to throw it up on Adverts but just spotted your ad.



    Pedals not included in sale but will include the matching bottle cages and a pair of Raceblade mudguards. Based in Dublin btw.

    Sorry only seeing this post now. That's a lovely bike for the money, and I'd love to be in a position to have it as a commuter....But sadly it's a bit above my budget. I'll send it on to the brother who is interested in similar and see what he says. Thanks!

    No problem. If you want I'll hold off advertising it elsewhere for a day or 2.

    I've got something similar - a Cube Peleton Pro in 58 but a couple of years older (not sure exactly age - picked it up on Donedeal but never got to like it). It has 3x9 speed Tiagra. Think the wheelset is Easton. Could maybe do with a service and rear wheel needs trueing (but perfectly usable in its current condition - I did a few 60-80k spins on it in August). I'd be looking for 300 or close to it.

    Only issue is I'm based abroad and not home again until mid October - but could potentially deliver it in your direction in four weekends time (around 13 Oct)
