Genesis Equilibrium size 52

fat bloke

Hi all.

I'm releasing this back into the Boards fold for what I paid for it

€450

Or if you want it in white you can buy one brand new one in cyclesuperstore for €2299.

I bought it for my daughter and she has not used it at all (at all). So, enough is enough, sez I. Bikes need to do miles and earn their keep. Time to make room.

Groupset is 34:50, 10 speed tiagra, frame is in excellent condition. Wheelset is a well used set of aksiums. Tyres are grand, bottle cages are new.

Collection in Dublin.

I'd like a few words with the ground zero owner who didn't buy it in a 56!!!😁

Hi

How high is the saddle on the picture (from centre of the bb to the top of the saddle measured along seat tube)? Also whats the distance from top of the saddle to centre of the steerer tube? How high is handlebar (measured vertically from the ground to the centre of handlebars roughly) and finally how tall is your daughter.

Thanks

Ok.

66.5cm

53cm

87cm

169cm

I'm not sure what use any of those measurements are - the saddle can be changed and moved up/down/fore/aft, ditto bars and my daughter has grown since April!You're better off working off an official Genesis Eqm frame geometry chart than my rudimentary tape measures of stuff that is adjustable anyway. :)

@sin_26 - Just an FYI, I had a saddle height (from centre of BB to top of saddle) of 74.7cm. As fat bloke has said lots of adjustability from the current set up of the bike.

i also cycle a 52cm equilibrium, and am about 172cm tall, and it's a good fit for me.

Thanks for all those measures. These are to check the ballpark as my wife have bike to work and we can mimick your bike setup. She have a long long legs and she is very sensitive to drop. Thats why is so tricky to find something for her. I'll be back home this evening so I'll check it out and let you know.

Thanks
