Sold Spitting 85 Saracen conquest....frame and fork now sold.

Thanks for the offer, but as discussed, im not posting the bike as a whole...its just too risky. I would need to strip the bike to pieces so i can post it in a fashion and security level I would be happy with to ensure it does not get trashed in transit!

The price for collection st £500 includes a big margin to make it worth while for the buyer to jump in their car....and frankly save me a lot of time and headache.

If your in suffolk, let me know.....

Cheers

Ok, thanks again.

Seems a shame to split it. Is there a rush to sell? Could you not just bump it along until the weather improves and people start thinking about riding their posh bikes?

 

[Tootyred]

I just want it gone now I've made the hard decision to let it go.....Its pointless me hanging onto a bike i can't ride. I will persevere on here a bit longer as I would rather it went to a retrobiker obv.....but, some hipster in Hoxon will love it with a front rack and bmx bars.!

Talking of hipsters. I can put a mention of this on LFGSS. They have a retro mountain bike thread on there and some people on there are also on here. Like me...

Someone buy this please

 

[Tootyred]

Thanks guys. I will leave it on the forum here only for a while, it might take time for it to soak in that its a bargain!

Plus your right, it may be too early in the year...but my plans for clearance must be kept on schedule!

 

[Tootyred]

My plan is to be left with just 2 "retrobikes"....well what i call retro....considering my new daily driver is 1992! They are both fine for a hours blip round the block, which is as much as i can do on an original head down - butt up style bike now.

Really this is the last big one to sort out....few frames, few more parts, but im down to spares mostly now anyway.

How much for the whole bike complete?

 

[Tootyred]

As above £500 collected
