Hi Craigslist, (OBRA)
I am selling this bike for a friend. It's a size 58cm. He used it for a couple brovet rides.
You can read about the rides here: http://www.yonderjournal.com/
The bike was more or less ridden hard and put away wet.
When he asked me to sell it it needed brake pads, cables and housing, shifting adjustment and lubrication, chain cleaning and lubrication and a good cleaning.
My friend who works for Raleigh did all of the above for me simply because he is a nice guy and he has all the parts.
It works great. Seriously. Gears 1-11 are all there at a flick of the Shimano Ultegra shifter.
I would like to note that the bike was ridden with frame bags, some racks and lights. All that stuff has been removed however there is evidence that it was once there. This evidence is clear at the fork crown, the front derailleur, the fork legs and some other spots on the frame where it was scratched or chaffed. Check out the photos. Better yet come check out the bike. I used a fair amount of Bike Lust to minimize the chaffing. Wax would do a better job but I think it looks pretty good.
Features:
Full Shimano Ultegra 11sp drive train which is dope.
TRP Disc Brakes for stopping
Alfine generator front hub for generating power for lights (no lights included)
Beefey Clament X'Plor MSO 40mm tires
Sloping top tube
Reynolds tubes in the frame for strength.
Size 58cm for size 58cm folks. Some companies call this a large.
*pedals are not included

Think about if this bike will work for you and give me a call.
I am asking $1800 hunnit (hundred) for it because it's the current model year, it's in great shape and because it's a gravel grinder and they are hot right now. New this bike listed for $2,200.
Shoot me an offer though. You never know. I might just trade for a '99 OR NEWER YAMAHA YZ250!!!!

Don't hesitate to ask questions. I am available most of the time.
