A friend wants to get into cycling and has asked me if anyone in the club is selling a basic road bike. Example size would be 54cm in Specialized bikes, or a medium in a Giant road bike. Budget is realistically under £300 which limits things somewhat. Thanks
Hello, Don't know whether it would be of any interest, but I've got a Specialized Allez that I was going to put on fleabay but hadn't got round to it - it's not very new (about 2008 model), but not bad condition - it was my first road bike, and has had a new groupset (Sora) a couple of years ago, with good condition gatorskins, mudguards and a pannier rack - would make a good commuter/winter bike. Can't remember what size, maybe 56? I'm 5'11... £200 would get it out of my garage and leave a bit of budget for minor improvements... Cheers, Dave.
