Judy curious as they have a few on sale.

I'm 6ft 1.5 and considering a 55 cm frame. I thought it might be too small but my Boardman road was a Large 55cm ST and 57TT.

Thanks for your help.

53cm and 5ft 10. Personally if i was buying now I would probably go for the Croix de fer 20 - £719 at several online stores.

Tyre kicking so not promising to buy, but out of curiosity; how much would you looking for and which model/year are you considering selling?

Thanks.

I managed to have a sit on a display which was missing parts so I couldn't ride it.

It was a 55 Team and the reach to hoods and bar were great. Felt a bit easy to hold the drops and not as stretched out as my Roadbike (probably my lack of flexibility).

They didn't have the 57 in stock.

Considering the Comp as its an old 2014 model and Halfrauds are introducing a new range next year.

I can get the comp with 10% off with British cycling and possible another 10% with my work discount on vouchers but that's mail delivered so might miss out.

Thanks for the advice folks. 55.5 cm seat tube gives a 56 ish TT which is ideal. Had a sit and fits well.

Thanks for the offer marko75 but I've decided to buy a cheap CX on offer. You should be able to sell it no problem on classifieds unless you rebuild it.
