Sold Dave Yates Mountain Bike

[LHarrod]

Dave Yates MTB suspension bike with shimano XT,, syncros seat pin, Muddy Fox Shocks. My husband had the frames and bike made up for him by Dave Yates. He was 6ft 2inch so would suit someone of that height. Looking for £1100 or sensible offers. Still in great condition just needs a service and a good clean. I'm located in Stamford, Lincs

Sorry to see your Husband isn't selling it, I am sure he absolutely loved it.

I have a lot of love for this bike but a white 26" wheel bike at £1100 is beyond my pocket. Good luck with the sale, I hope it goes to someone who appreciates your Husband's dream build.

Thank you very much. Yes he did love it but would want it to go to a good home. She you interested in it?

Hi there, would it be possible for you to measure the size of the frame? I'm most interested in the "virtual toptube" length as I'm 6'3" but the shape of the bike looks a bit different to what I usually ride. I've attached a diagram - it's the measurement labelled "D" on there.
Thanks!

Hi of course I can measure it but won't be till Monday next week as I'm away at present. Hope that's ok. Lisa

Hi ive measured as per your request it's approx 54-55cms. Hope that helps. Thanks Lisa

Ok, thanks, I think that would make my riding position more upright than I would like. Nice bike, I hope it finds a good home.

Hi Lisa, good to meet you today. Thought it only right to get the Dave Yates down to the pub.

I'll raise a glass to both you and Geoff.
