For Sale: Vibram FiveFingers Bikila – size 42

Had been promising myself a pair Vibram FiveFingers for quite a while and finally found a quiet 5 minutes on Xmas day to order a pair.

Picked a pair of Bikila’s as they would do for general wear. My plan was always to use first pair generally before committing myself to running in them and the sky blue / yellow / grey colour scheme does almost go with jeans.

I normally wear UK size 8 in most footwear, but these are euro 42, and annoyingly are just that bit to big around the heel. I would suggest these are more uk size 8.5.

Being Xmas didn’t get round to trying them earlier so unable to exchange now!

Now have a pair in size euro 41 and these a great without socks.

These have be tried on indoors only, not been outside so are as new with labels still on.

Model: Bikila
Colour: Sky Blue / Yellow / Grey

For Sale: OnOne 456 MTB – Blue – 16″ Frame

The time has come to bite the bullet and part with my mountain bike.

Why? Well 2 reasons really, the first being it’s been 18 months since it last turned a wheel in anger and second I’ve run out of space in the garage!

Yes – I know, soon as it’s going I will have a need for it. But I decided to review the situation this summer, which is why I know it’s not been used for 18 months.

The bike was originally bought as a Specialized a Stumpjumper HT 2007 model. It was okay for singletrack, but for jumps and drops the reach was too long whatever I did.

Hence I bought the current frame, a 2012 OnOne 456 16″ – which has shorter reach. Being steel it’s much more compliant than the aluminium stumpjumper frame.

To build the current machine I’ve transferred as many part across to the OnOne and purchased anything else.

Think pretty much every transferred apart from the front derailleur and seat post.

This is the general specification:

– Fox F90RL forks **
– Shimano Deore brake levers
– Shimano XT brake calipers
– 180mm disc front rotor, 160mm rear
– Shimano LX shifters ***
– Shimano XT 3x 9 cranks
– Shimano XT FD
– Shimano XTR RD
– Mavic 317 disc wheels
– Specialized “the captain” armadillo elite tyres
– OnOne 456 16″ frame in blue 2012
– DMR v8 pedals
– Has green bar grips
– comes with 3 spare pairs of brake pads

** these forks have 90mm travel, with a possible 100mm if the internal spacer is removed.

*** I had to remove the shift indicators to set shifter / brake lever setup on bars I wanted. The realised specialised hadn’t supplied the blanking plates, so I used some packing as a cover. However the original gear shift indicators are included.

Bike is in generally good condition with obvious signs of use. The main marks are on the crank drive side seat stays and couple of one of the fork leg lowers.

I’m 5’7 and the bike is perfect size for jumps and drops when you need to get clearance between you and the bike.

If you want to view the bike please let me know. I’m based in Harlow and work in Watford.

Any questions please feel free to ask.
