[B]Wanted: Bike to leave on wahoo kickr[/B]

eeimcaw

Hi Folks,
Looking for a bike to leave permanently on the kickr and sick of chopping and changing over the bike.

Budget ~€400
Location: Athlone, can travel to collect tho.
Preferrable: 11 speed but kickr can take 10 speed.
Medium frame - i'm just shy of 5'10"
Current bike: 2015 cube lightning, 56 Frame, 11 speed ultegra.

Can do without wheels & saddle aswell as have spare front wheel and saddle.


Have looked and bid on a few on adverts but alot of messing going on so said i'd try my look here.

Please let me if anyone has anything suitable.
Thanks
Mick

LK bikes in letterkenny are selling off their second hand bikes. They have a mint Lapeirre 22 speed alloy bike for €450 and a few other 10 speed bikes near your budget.

Thanks Cee-Jay-Cee.
Contacted LK bikes and the lapierre was sold but will keep on eye out if they put up more 2nd hand bikes.

Perfect turbo bike there, good albeit older components but cheap I'm not sure of your sizing but I vary between a 54 and 56 frame so might be similar yourself. That BMC they have on the LK bikes looks decent also.

Thanks @iwillhtfu,
That bmc wasn't there when i looked yesterday so rang this morning and its sold, pity as that 54 was pretty much spot on compared to my own cube.
Was chatting to him a bit more so he probably will have more coming up next week and they'll ship the bikes no problem.

Waterford bit far to travel, would travel on hour or so.

I built up a BMC 54 frame myself last year and I have to say they're quality bikes probably to good to be resigned to a turbo trainer though. Good luck with your search.
