[For Sale] 2007 Specialized FSR XC Pro

for photos please see Off Topic section

Hi I’ve owned my 2007 Specialized FSR XC pro (size Medium )from new (12th January 2008) and have made a decision to move it on, it’s in overall very good condition and the only things I’ve replaced are the wheel rims and the bottom crank the rear wheel requires replacing as the hub bearing has failed but there are a spare set of rims ( rear with cassette and avid disc already fitted ) it’s a 27 speed , I have the original receipt and all the book pack, it’s fitted with Town and Country tires with slime inner tubes as I was using this to commute to work.personally I think it is in very nice condition and with it being 11 years old I hope this shows that it has been well cared for as can be seen i paid £970 for it. for photos please see Off Topic section as there are lots of pictures and also nice comments regarding the overall condition. £275 ono collection only please from Lewknor Oxfordshire Junction 6 of the M40

Many thanks Paul 07766 325028

2012 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 SW Santorini Black

I'm quite interested but know absolutely 0 when it comes to bikes, although I am looking for one! What height would this frame suit and Is it a big job swapping over the rear wheel/Tyres?

Thanks

Hi deaalan The bike size medium suits 5’5 to 5’11 I’m 5’11 and it’s fine for me and the rear wheel is just a straight swap as the parts are already fitted to the rim and I will happily swap it over but I just wanted to be honest about how the bike stood

cheers Paul

OK thanks for that. I'm 5'11 also so should be good for me. I'm about an hour and a half away so it just depends on when I'd be able to come down to see it - that could be a while as I've got the in laws staying and I'm having to keep them entertained

.... if its not sold by the weekend I might be able to come up to you, unless you'll be coming my way over the next week or two?

Thanks Paul, see my reply. Out of interest is the hub on the rear wheel something that can be repaired or is it more hassle than its worth?

The inlaws staying should be excuse enough to set off and see the bike. if it were me I'd factor in breaking down too just to be on the safe side

Hi deaallen in my opinion yes it’s worth getting the hub replaced as cost wise it should be less than £25 for someone to do it for you, also it’s got a disc and rear cassette already fitted so effectively you could keep the road tyres on one set and fit off road tyres on the other set and it would be a 5 minute job to swap over (as they are quick release)to suit the conditions you are going to ride in ie road or off road

cheers Paul. You have a pm
