yes the whole thing ready to ride away.
here's a cromega '92 DX in a nice ferrari red.
i will start with the vital points.
size. centre of bb to top of top tube...18" same to seat insert, 19".
top tube c to c of 22".
some replacement parts but most is original DX. inc bottom bracket!
all mechanically good and framework has no defects. the paint has the odd chip but nothing ugly. main one is under bb!
hubs are tight and smooth. the freehub has a tiny amount of play but, quiet and works ok. headset is freeof play too and, smooth.
seatpost was added after-market and is a kalloy i think. seat is a ritchey vector.
stem is an answer model(no decals). grips are by specialized. bars are comp-lite 170g in a nice ano champagne silver.
wheel stuff.....
DX 650 hubs to mavic 232. brake surface is well used but good nick, not concave! skewers are original DX.
hg50 7 speed cassette. used for 50-60 miles!
mechs... are original DX rear has good jockeys.
cranks... granny is a green ano 'specialized' effort. middle is gold ano 'vuelta' and outer is a middleburn in black. 24.36.48. almost rasta style.
chain is sram 850 and installed from new with the rest of the drivetrain.
pedals are in smart condition. vp. spd and chunky. good colour match if not a little 'mad max'.
tyres...front is a velociraptor with good tread but sidewall is getting rough.
rear is an original a-stars t.k.o in good shape with a smooth sidewall.
canti brakes are dx 650 with xt cartridge pads that work well! they stop you.
the brake/gear shifting system is original sti DX and all works well.
this bike was in storage for 10+ years and it shows! the colour is fresh and decals are all there. the crank arms have little rub too. the 'deore' is as readable as this mornings' broadsheet.
i could go on but i will leave you with some pics instead i can put more on here. emailing them doesn't seem to work for me!
the price? £190 collected/meet. postage to uk only add £15.
not an easy decision to sell this one but i have other rigids to fall back on.
