    A little heads up for anyone looking for a groupset. Due to an imminent upgrade, my old one is going to be available around the middle of next week. It's coming off a TCR advanced pro, pictured above, most of the groupset is from a 2016 build, except for the levers which were bought new in May 2018, and also the cassette (12:32 I think...) and chain which have obviously been changed out a number of times.

    Levers are almost new and mint, derailleurs and brakes are all in great nick. The chainset (172.5, and 52:36) has plenty of miles on it, it's got a bit of footrub and could do with a replacement inner chainring. The whole bike was serviced in cyclesuperstore over the summer and I've been using another bike since. As you can see from the pics, I keep her clean. So the cables and bottom bracket should all be perfect. I don't know what the story is with bottom bracket disassembly though - can they be re-used? (For some reason I have this idea that with press-fits that they are fit-once?)

    Asking 300 quid for the lot and would prefer to let it go in one job lot and preferably collection/delivery. If there's interest in splitting then I can see about individually pricing bits accordingly.

    Would you sell the shifters on their own?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,813 ✭✭✭fat bloke


    Yeah, might do. I haven't had a chance to strip yet. I'll hopefully have it done this week and I'll put up pics and prices of individual bits.

    edit - based on new prices of close to 200 quid I reckon I'd be firm and fair enough at 120 for the pair. If that grabs you.
