No one interested?

Is it to much money? :shock:

I might be interested in this, I'm looking for a cheap bike to go one way touring on. I'll just give it away when I run out of money next summer.

How tall are you?, bike sizing has always been a bit of a dark art to me.

Was complimenting Raleigh's stem/bar to frame colour-matching not long ago, really think it's classy and this is the perfect example, thank you!

Had a K2 framed Peak (not lugged) way way back & loved it (not that I had anything to compare it to back then) - have a nostalgic bump!

M-Trax

Yes I agree, The lugs and colour scheme make the bike look pretty smart and a bit different.

 

[elPedro666]

More helpfully, I road a 19" & I'm about 5'9 with short legs - at that there was probably not really quite enough stand-over, but smaller ones were a bit short for my ape-arms; normal people shouldn't have any problem!

I guess 6'ish would be about right for a normo, if you're touring maybe you'd size up a bit for more stretch though... :?

Always reckon that reach is the important dimension

Reckon that's enough from me! Except to say that beater's a bit harsh! :shock:

 

[uktyler]

It might be a tad small for me, and I won't get a chance to pick it up for a couple of weeks, so if any one wants to jump in and buy it please do.

always liked the look of these, and it would be a shame to give it away in a foreign country to someone who probably won't appreciate it.
