I'm trying to balance the books on the Supabike outlay, so this is my least used bike. I used to loan it to a friend once a year for the DFR's as he didn't own one. I offered it to him but he has no space either. Other than those couple of outings, I've probably only done 50 miles on it and it's in good shape. Not that I didn't like it, or anything wrong with it, it's just that I have ones I prefer more.
It's gold, it's 23" or 23.5". It's nice. It has the same frame as the Deore 18ax. I'll try and find and add a picture or two, or take some new ones tomorrow.
I can't remember all the components on it, so don't want to pick a random number out of the air for the price, but I will do anyway and say it's gotta be worth £75 I think?
Let me know if you are interested.
EDIT- If you search my username and Corsair Wayfarer on here, you should find pictures
EDIT AGAIN - just put some pics on Viscount Facebook

Nice bike, good price. You’ll get a bit more for it on evilbay, Jem.
I know it’s good to keep things within a community but offering it outside may bring others in.

I'll probably put it on the other selling platforms after a day or two. I just find dealing with people I know a bit easier. And without wanting to sound too sentimental - I get plenty of technical knowledge, help and support from everyone in the 'Viscount Community', that to offer them at affordable prices is a way of acknowledging that. After all, 9 years later, I'd still be trying to finish doing a BB spindle change and the bike would still be in bits without the people I met through the Viscount forum. I have had various things sent to me for free via this forum, and I dont know about the law of karma too much but I probably still owe something to someone, somewhere along the way. I just read this back to myself and it sounds like I am giving the bike away....  I am after all charging £75, but for members here I am always flexible to some arm twisting if you really like the bike. |
