    Looking for a cx bike, 54-56cm (I’m 5 11”) . Something like a boardman cx comp. I have €330 or a tad more, depending. Thanks

    Hi!

    Could you provide specs, please? Year of manufacture etc?

    Looking for starter bike to resume brevet rides. Had a long break, not sure how it will go, so for now looking for road/cx/touring/gravel bike, with size 55-57cm(my height 183cm) up to 200-250 price range.

    Hi


    Here is as much as I have on the bike. I think the year is about 2010 but I can't be sure, I bought it a few years ago. It has a Tiagra groupset with a double chain set ( I replaced this from the standard triple about 18 months ago.

    I have changed the wheelset to Fulcrum 7’s and these have been fine. Also I have changed the standard canti brakes to short pull brakes which work better. It has the inline brake levers as well as the ones on the drops. All regularly maintained and serviced (cassette and chain). Tyres are 32’s I think with loads of thread (and clearance) left on them

    Its black and I am 6FT/183cm and the size is perfect for me, original saddle and seatpost is on it, no crashes or abuse, I used it for the longest sportive I have done Boyne Valley 150km once and it was fine
