This is listed for $1200 near me, is it worth it. Would be my first gravel bike
2015 Year, Aluminum, size Small / 50cm Frame, 700c.
Was originally built custom by cyclepath with flat bars and as such has:
– Niner Carbon flat bar, pivot lock on grips, XT hydraulic brakes.
– 10speed Shimano XT/Deore mechanical MTB drivetrain, currently has a long cage RD but have a medium cage for it also.
– 1x 40T wolftooth chainring on FSA cranks with composite flat pedals (have SPDs I’ll throw in if you want them)
– This is an older gen frame and thus has QR wheel dropouts front and rear.
– WTB Devo women’s saddle with a Corsa Carbon seatpost or keep the old school rock shox “suspension” seatpost I put on for the fun of it (shown).
Stock wheels (last photo) are the Niner alloy with Niner OEM hubs, 6 bolt rotors, 160F/140R, 11-34t cassette. Currently have good condition 32c Panaracer Pasela tires mounted with tubes as a commuter / training wheelset. I’ve run a different set of these same wheels tubeless no issue however these are not currently taped for it.
Second set of wheels (most photos) I’m including at the asking price are HED Ardennes (alloy rim, HED OEM hubs) same size 160/140 but C/L rotors, 11-42t cassette. These currently are setup tubeless with basically brand new WTB Venture 42c tires (the largest the frame will accept, fork can go 45+) as a turn key gravel wheelset.
I also have a pair of black PDW Full Metal fenders (not shown) in good condition I will include at asking price.
This was my wife’s bike however never saw any actual gravel riding, only a short stint of commuting before going to a kid hauling cargo bike. It’s been ridden maybe 4 times a year the last half a decade around the neighborhood or a campground in the summer. Hard to overstate how excellent of shape it’s in and I’ve always kept up on general maintenance despite its low use.
