Here we have a very interesting and rare Project (spares or restore) Bike – an Ultra Lightweight Men’s Trek 2300 Carbon Fibre Framed Road Racing Bike.
Bought as a used / project bike to restore and was looking to use on a Turbo trainer however time is, as ever, getting in the way of various projects in the house which I am being told are more important!!
History of the bike as I understand is the bike is of 1993 vintage and has the alloy brakes / Shimano alloy wheel hubs / Mavic Rims / Shimano gears.
The 9 speed rear cassette and the ‘Mutant’ Alloy Headstock are later additions.
Carrera Seat on Alloy stem a further addition and Seat Stem moves freely once released from the Allen key pinch bolt. Original stem and seat come with the bike.
Please do study the pictures – the bike has been well used and there is some oxidation showing on the alloy lugs on the frame and some lacquer is coming off the carbon frame in places – Saying that it still rides / brakes work / wheels are running true and gears all click through 1-9 and then on the larger cog the same.
Clip on pedals stay with the bike. Tyres and fairly recently replaced Tubes have been pumped up hard and hold air.
The Chain set has an Allen key release bolt which makes removal easier if needed.
The frame is Carbon Fibre and has alloy lugs with Epoxy Bonding – the Shimano changers on the Frame are very retro! Forks are Alloy.
The component parts of the bike I am sure are worth much more separately however want to sell as a whole bike.
I have put on a number of photos to show as much of the bike as possible and I will of course answer any questions you have – please message me via ebay and I will come back to you asap. Will fit into most reasonable sized hatchback cars with back seats down with no need to remove any wheels etc. and I can load in the car if required.
Given size this is collection only please – we are located in Chelmsford Essex about a mile from A12 junc 19 or 20 mins from M25 junc 28 (easy to find and loads of parking)
Cash on collection or Paypal fine.
Thank you for looking.
