Hey folks,

Here we have my Lapierre Spicy 516 frame, which I believe is a 2008 model. I'm selling it with the headset, shock and a couple of replacement bolts (as pictured).

Frame: 2008 516 Spicy, Small (41cm), 160mm rear travel (I think!)
Headset: Cane Creek 110 Zero Headset (Red).
Shock: Fox FP23
2 x Upper Link FT Fixation Screws

I bought the frame 2nd hand on eBay back in 2010, rode it for a while and then decided it was too small for me. I then snapped a bolt which took me so long to source a replacement for that I stripped the frame and started riding one of my other bikes. The frame has been hung up in the garage ever since waiting for me to rebuild or sell it.

I now have a replacement (2 in fact!) for the snapped bolt, however I've been unable to remove the end of the old bolt from the link fixation screw, so this will need to be done, or alternatively you could buy a new fixation screw for £12.99 from eBay which may be easier, the link for these can be found below:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/183770049291?var=691373347222&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338365712&toolid=20006&customid=EB89597170&

In terms of condition, the frame itself has the usual marks and scratches you'd expect from a frame of this age. I've tried to capture these in the photos as best as possible.

The headset bearings feel ok at a glance, however I would not be surprised if some of the frame bearings need attention.

The shock worked fine last time I rode the bike, but this was probably 5 or so years ago so it might benefit from some attention/ a service.

Given my lack of certainty about the condition of everything and the issue with the link fixation screw I've no idea how to price this, I'm expecting the buyer will have to do a bit of work to get this in to a rideable state so happy to consider any offers which reflect this.

Collection from SE27 would be preferable, viewings also welcome here. I'm happy to box and post at the buyers expense if preferred though.

Very happy to answer any questions etc,

Cheers,

Edd
