...ooohhh... Nice....

..Do we know what the frame size is and whether you'll ever consider posting the bike?

[rosemoran]

Well I used the OBW designation "Large" rather than seat tube 508 as on their 'about our frame' web page they give the key dimensions and suggested rider heights . In this case, 5' 7'' to 6' 1''.

I do have a bike box so could pack the bike for transit but the buyer would need to arrange the pickup and insurance etc.

Thanks for getting back to me. It's appreciated. It's a very nice bike - folks if it's not gone in two weeks time, I may be risking my marriage.... someone buy it !

Just giving this one a bump up the thread...

It's a bargain price for what is a capable bicycle - cycle on road, cycle off road, without or without loads - this bike should cope, and if I was a younger man I might have bought it for a long tour...
..as it is I'm giving everyone a chance...

Richard at OBW puts together some great bikes. Perhaps a bit dated for some but they are robust and reliable - I have one already!

..sadly this weekend brought the realisation that I'll have less free time than i thought - I've been asked to help keep up my in-laws garden... and given the price of veggies, turning it into a more productive place...

..and with three partly finished steel framed/26 inch wheel/cantilever project bikes hanging unfinished from the garage rafters I'm going consider myself lucky if I get to wear out even one of them in the next ten years...

Apologies
