Hey folks
So, I'm listing this are spares... I’ll explain. I built this up a couple of years ago. It was the ‘top spec’ version spec’d with DX and a Reynolds fork but the frame for all models were the same. After building it up and taking it for a ride I found out it wasn’t as solid as it looks and feels. It’s like riding a wet noodle. Originally I fitted a Pace RC35 but tried a rigid fork and still the noodle continued. I can only guess that the magnesium alloy has some fine cracks that I can’t quite see on the surface. It’s a common problem with the Kirk frames so I’d say this is just a wall hanger.
£10? Just something to add to the biscuit fund at work.
Collection only.
