Mostly looking for a bike I can enjoy on some dirt roads and gravel, I do prefer more “endurance” geometry. What do we think of this bike and its upgrades? Write up below:
“Here’s a super cool custom built all-terrain road bike! This bike has been a pet project of mine and as much as I love it, I don’t have room for it so I’m hoping it will go to a loving home! Here’s some specs –
Frame – 55cm Aluminum Giant TCX w/ Carbon fork
Seatpost – Giant Connect, Carbon
Wheels – Reynolds AR29X Carbon Rims w/ Bladed spokes
Tires – Panaracer Gravelking 700×38
Derailleurs – Shimano Dura Ace 9000
Shifters – Shimano Dura Ace 9000 2×11
Crankset – Shimano Dura Ace 9000 50/34
Brakes – TRP CX9 mini-v’s w/ Box One (Carbon-Specific) Brake Pads
Cassette – Ultegra 11-30t
Handlebars – Bontrager Pro Carbon 44cm wrapped w/ Zipp Service Course CX tape
Stem – Thomson Elite 90mm
Weight – 18lbs 10oz
It’s also worth noting that, despite these being rim brakes on carbon wheels, these brakes actually work EXTREMELY well and stop on a dime thanks to the pairing of an excellent brake set and the use of compressionless brake housing w/ a high-end set of brake pads.
Definitely a couple scratches here and there but all of the cables, the bar tape, chain, cassette, Large front Chainring and brake pads are brand new and the bike is running perfect. Tires also have minimal wear. This bike is such a blast to ride!! Would also make an excellent bike for commuting around the city as it does great on all terrain and has mounts for a rack! Feel free to message with questions. Cash only please.
Can include basic platform pedals if needed! “
