He wants £4200 for it

I want to be a couple of inches taller but that ain’t gonna happen either.

Not a bad example if you can ignore the price …. the rear mech cable routing …. the seatpost fitted the wrong way round ….

£4,200

Maybe that's the price all that cable outer and brake hose cost him.

Isn’t this how you price a bike when you want your other half to think you’re selling it but really you want to keep it?

What even is it?

I think he's accidentally added an extra zero and even then, it's overpriced.

Titus El Guapo. On One sold them years ago. I had a 26inch wheeled one. It was OK at the time but is fairly outdated now (135mm QR rear hub ect).

Those wheels were terrible. A mate was building up a TI hardtail in a sort of "Dream bike" spec and was fitting the blingiest things he could find. He showed us a picture of these wheels and we all told him NO!! ( including one of us who was a mechanic in a bike shop). He bought them anyway and keep putting bearings in them fast enough. Then a rock strike cracked one of the proprietary rims and the cost of replacement meant that was that!

Surely a typo in their text conversation or something. £420 but open to offers would feel ok if still a touch optimistic.

What the eff's going on with that rear mech cable? All those neat cable mounts under the chain stay and he does that to it?
