CX bike wanted/ trade

splanagan22

Hi.

looking to get into some CX. Been looking for years but always seem to let the season slip away.

looking for a bike to get started. Not too fussy but ideally disc brakes

size small and I’m in Meath. Budget is small so up to €500 max.

I have a 2018 TCR advanced pro that I’d be willing to trade or PX for something a bit more expensive if anyone is interested in this way

id also consider a frame as I’ve plenty of bits and pieces to put it together

regards

Neil

I have the bike from this thread -

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2058108189/fs-boardman-cx-bike

greyspoke sold it to fatbloke who sold it to someone who sold it to mfceiling who sold it to me, each time at €525.

It's a medium but might work for you - geometry is here -

I'd like to get €525 for it again! But I'd be happy to keep the groupset and sell the frameset with original Mavic wheels, discs and Conti 35c CX tyres for €200 if that's of any interest. In South Dublin, close to M50/N11.

Hi. I’m interested. I ride a 54 road bike but I’m thinking this might be too big. Only one way to find out. I’m 5:8

id be very interested at around €450???

Size should be fine. My wife uses it and she's 5' 4 and a half". That's with a shorter stem fitted.

TBH, I'd rather not sell the 1x11 groupset unless I'm getting much closer to asking. My wife loves it as she doesn't have to try and remember when to change the front gear! I could do it with a Shimano 105 2x11 speed mechanical disc groupset for €450? 50-34 175 cranks, 11-34 cassette.

Ok well sure I better come and see the bike.I’ll offer asking subject to viewing and I’ll be working down Southside Thursday onwards. Maybe we can move to PM to arrange something.?

Is there a TCR Advanced Pro 2018 for sale here?

Splanagan22 was due to come and have a look at it last week but the unseasonal weather combined with the seasonal traffic put paid to that! I'll chase him up and come back to you.

Just came on here to enquire about it myself :)

I haven't had any response from splanagan22 so if anyone else is interested please get in touch! Thanks.

PM'd you so Paul 👍️

Boardman medium would be on the slightly-too-big side for someone 5'8" - they size up larger than the label suggests.
