stuartm Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 I've got a red Carrera Virtuoso for sale. Frame is in pretty good condition, some wear on the chain stay, and some other expected chips / scratches as you would expect from a bike of this age. I believe this model is 3-4 years old. All that's left of the original bike if pretty much just the frame: Fork has been upgraded to a Fenix carbon fork Seatpost upgraded to carbon Wheels have been upgraded / replaced Shimano 105 rear derailleur Shifters are 8-speed Sora-style Tioga stem Bile was serviced last month, all gear and brake cabling replaced, new bar tape fitted. The wheels probably need trued. I'm no expert on parts, but the upgrades are all pretty much entry-level components rather than massive improvements on form. Weight is around 10KG, and the bike is probably suitable for someone around 5ft 6 and above. Picture attached. The bike needs a good clean to bring it back up the the photographed standard - I'll try get it cleaned up before selling. Pedals not included. Looking for £200. http://picturepush.com/public/10023135 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartm Posted September 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 No one interested? Price drop to £180, and I'll throw in some unworn cycling clothing, all medium sized, and probably 3-4 pieces worth around £50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennyS Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 If Ross hasn't bought it by now, I would be interested in having a look at it. Is this the Small sized frame? We already have a few of the Jets on these KennyS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartm Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Sorry for the slow response, I've been struck down with man-flu this week. Kenny, it's a medium frame: Seat tube is 50cm (bottom bracket to top of seat clamp) Top tube is 52cm. The clothing I'll throw in comprises the following: 1 * Crane soft shell jacket - white with red / black trim 1 * Crivit padded cycling shorts 1 * 3/4 length Crivit padded shorts 2 * LS black base layer jerseys (similar to these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Take-Five-Mens- ... 3efa2865cd) 1 * set cheapo blue arm warmers 1 * Crane hi-viz Paclite jacket Probably cost me £50 and never been worn, so a nice little starter kit for a beginner. I also might throw in a jersey if I have a spare. Still looking for £180 all in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartm Posted October 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Adding a Crane hi-viz Paclite waterproof jacket, about another £15 worth. Leaving it up here a few more days before sticking it on gumtree and ebay. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartm Posted November 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Sold. Finally. Many thanks to Jann for facilitating the sale. Just noticed I done myself out of £5. Doh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
