Now free. It deserves better than the skip. Collection only.
Bought by me 2nd hand in early 2018 (via this forum) since when I've put c.8000 touring miles on it. Cosmetically scruffy (dings & scratches), but mechanically sound with plenty of life left in it. Pre my ownership, the left side handlebar has had a knock which has bent it inwards a degree or two. No effect when riding and barely visible.
Recent chain (<200 miles), new brake blocks. Bottom bracket/chain rings changed in my ownership (c. 5000 miles ago). The current cassette is skipping slightly on the 11t with the new chain. It should wear in this time, but a new cassette will be needed at next chain renewal.
Gearing: 3x9: 34/11 cassette, 44/32/22 rings.
Shimano 105 mechs/shifters, Deore cranks. Suspension seat post, Schwalbe Marathons, Shimano dyno hub and B&M Senso lighting (all functioning). Rear Tubus rack, front rack (Tubus, with front kickstand) currently demounted, but included in sale. Dutch lock (2 keys) with integrated cable lock.
The bike was originally bought new abroad, and brakes remain continental style (L front, R rear).
Excluded from sale (as pictured): pedals, look in saddle, camera mounts, bar bag, frame bag, out front Garmin mount. I will include new flat trekking pedals and a new Selle Royal Vivo trekking saddle (see pictures).
I'm 6' tall - the bike is slightly too tall for me, but I've enjoyed the very comfortable "rangy" feel of the longer reach. Within the Google drive photo folder is the 2005 Koga brochure (in Dutch) with full geometry (page 58).

Hi, just wondering whereabouts you are in Cumbria as I will probably be in the Keswick /Carlisle area later on next week and although possibly to large for me could well be tempted to try your bike for size.
