Hello ,This is my wifes Castellano silk Ti ,this is actually the second time I have advertised it but withdrew the Ad back in 2023 as wifey decided to keep it for a couple of trips.It is now following those trips,superfluous to requirements (read….no more room in the garage )
To sum up,this was handmade for my 5’4” wife by John Castellano and welded together by Steve Potts of WTB fame.
It has 2” inches of rear travel provided by an elastomer shock and flat plate chain stays.
It is available as a frame only or as a complete or partial build……according to your choice.
At the moment It is fitted with
DT swiss XXM forks
Middleburn cranks and is set up as a triple with Hardcote rings.
Hope hubs laced to Mavic gunmetal rims
Renthal Al riser bars
Sram shifters and rear mech.(combination of X5 and X7) The XO mech I may keep and fit an X5 for the sale depending on the offer I receive.
Chris king red headset.
Hope X2 brakes,Though we may keep these.
All items are for sale separately,but at the moment I would like to see if it will sell as a complete bike.
Frame dimensions shown in the images.
No expense was spared when this bike was built and cost over ÂŁ5500 to put together.
Frame only ÂŁ1300 (it was ÂŁ2700 new) or make me an offer.
As a complete build I will start at ÂŁ2000 and am open to serious offers and am happy to negotiate.
It is a difficult one to price up as it is a very rare beast and that will make it either worth little or worth a lot,feel free to tell me what you think.
If I get enough interest in the parts I will be happy to break the bike and sell the components.
The bike is advertised elsewhere.
All the best.
