Holdsworth Road Bike
This disc-braked bike was built in 2019 & is based round a brand-new Holdsworth Elan steel frame
with Shimano's Tiagra groupset.
I would guess I have ridden it about 500 miles from build.
There's bigger pictures here & here
Any marks on it in the picture are mud splashes, not scratches.
It currently has mudguards but these could of course come off for the Chris Froome look.
The rear-view mirror under the bars is experimental & only held on with tyraps.
You can see that while I'm happy on it (I'm 6ft) the saddle is high so there's enough adjustment of saddle & bars height that it could fit almost anybody.
A new bike with this spec is around £1,000 so this one is a bargain at £400.
If you're interested, e-mail me at "holdsworth[at]tonyrichey.com".
However, as I need the space, I'm open to sensible (£100s, not £10s) offers, but if I have to let it go too cheap you get whichever saddle I least want to keep, a pair of basic platform pedals & no after-sales support. (& if I'm feeling spiteful, no bottle cages.) (Oh, & I might let the tyres down.)
Incidentally, the frame has good tyre clearance so if more off-road use is preferred, I can offer knobblies.
