Orange 🍊 Fan
Very Reluctant sale :facepalm: Need funds for wedding so this has to be sold. PRICE is £1400. (I orgainally paid £1500 for it last year). If you would like it posted it will be extra, probably £50 or so given its worth and the insurance required to post it. ( NO INTERNATIONAL POSTING) Happy for collection or to drive part of the way for cost if required.
There is a very detailed thread on here done by Coleman, in which the frame was restored by the frame builder Kevin Winter. Underneath is a price listing of the bike parts and breakdown of cost.

NOS Shimano cables, tubes, tapes etc - £30
Total - £1800
Anything that isn't listed as NOS is great condition. The NOS stuff was NOS at build - its been ridden a couple of times - apart from the wheels - I put another pair in for riding so they are unmarked.
Condition of the bike is extremely good, the only very minor things are, a tiny chip on paint on the top tube where the orange embossed logo is as pictured (only about a mm square). Also the front mech clamp has marked the paint - you cant see it when its on but you can when it is off.
Overall the bike rides very well, no damage in terms of cracks, dents, nothing is seized etc...
Am going to throw in the Orange one piece bar and stem combo, as these originally came with Orange formula's, will need re-spraying/ restoring etc, but no use to me now. Any questions please ask.
Option of Splitting, prefer not too :facepalm: , but appreciate its a lot of money, so option 2 is £1000, this will include FRAME, FORKS, XT HEADSET, PRESTIGE BARS, STEM, XT SEAT BINDER, XT FRONT MECH and Bottom Bracket only. Postage I would guess 30-40 pounds with insurance.
