Dawes Giro 400 Competition Road Bike - 55cm excellent condit

$225 GBP
Here we have my Dawes Giro 400 Competition road bike I have owned this bike from new but not used it much as it’s never felt comfortable when compared to my MTB. I recently joined a Tri club where it was quickly noted by other club members that my frame was too big for me – hence the discomfort. I’m rather gutted to be selling this bike but having ridden a club member’s smaller framed bike my initial purchasing blunder is very apparent. This bike is suitable for someone around 5ft 10” to 6ft 1”. If you’re 5ft 8”/5ft 9” with a positive ape index ( mine is negative ) then this bike might be OK for you. Crank centre to top of the seat tube measures 555 mm and the horizontal centre to centre between seat tube and head tube measures 542mm. It has covered less than 500 road miles plus around another equivalent 100 miles on a turbo over this winter so as such it’s in excellent condition. I have a set of brand new tyres available too as the turbo sessions have squared the rear tyre a little. There is a little garage rash on the chain stays from storage caused entirely by the pedals on my sons MTB. Being the competition model it has a good spec including full Shimano Sora groupset. Full spec of the bike is as follows:- • Frame – 55cm 6061 alloy frame • Fork – 6061 alloy forks • Front Derailleur – Shimano Sora • Rear Derailleur – Shimano Sora 8 speed • No. of Gears – 16 speed • Shifters/Levers – Shimano Sora flight deck 8 speed • Chain Rings – Shimano Sora 53-39T • Crankset – Shimano Sora 170mm • Bottom Bracket – Shimano Sora • Cassette - Shimano 8 speed 13-26T • Chain – Shimano 8/9 speed • Pedals – Look clipless pedals with cleats ( clip type available if preferred ) • Brakeset – Tektro alloy side pull • Handle Bars – Ritchey 6061 Comp Triple Strength • Stem – Ritchey Logic 100mm • Headset – Ritchey Logic • Wheel Rims – Rigida Nova • Spokes – 14G stainless steel with s/s nipples • Hubs – Shimano Sora • Tyres – Schwalbe Blizzard Sport 700C x 23 folding tyres with Puncture Protection ( includes a brand new spare set ) • Saddle – Selle Italia • Seatpost – Ritchey 6061 alloy This is a lovely well spec’d bike that I’m loathed to sell but it’s simply too big for me. Its inappropriate size is the only reason why it’s up for sale. PLEASE NOTE: collection is preferred, however, I am more than happy to box up this bike up properly and send via courier if the buyer makes the Courier arrangements. I can also deliver locally if need be.
