Calling All Orange C16R Owners

Glad you saved it, far too good for waste... Got a bargain for £65, and from the pics looks to be in good condition given it's age...

Evening, so the time has come and I've got to sell this '96 C16R. It's got plenty of miles left in it and I am only selling as I need the space freed up in the flat.

I've stuck an add on this site (see link below - excuse the poor phone photos!). Ideally I'd sell as a whole bike.

Your offers and views welcome on price etc. And if anyone knows a friend of a friend that could be interested then please pass on a link!

Cheers!

Re:

Just brought my cousins c16 r of which im chuffed about is there still parts available for these models and anyway to tell when it was made?

Welcome to retrobike Russ Marsh.. there should be a number under the bottom bracket, which will indicate it's age, most likely to be a mid 90's bike, but if you put the number up here someone will identify it easy enough... Without pictures difficult to determine.. as for parts for it, they do come up from time to time, such as the Orange stems, saddles, bars and seatpost. As for the groupsets of this era fairly easy to obtain.. anyway look forward to seeing some pics..
