Cannondale Trail SL Singlespeeed 29er Frameset, Large - £175

[macskive]

Hello there

I have this frame for sale which is in excellent condition other than a couple of small marks from use. I have owned it since January and it has been used as my occasional commuter and single speed MTB during that time.

Included with the frame is the seat clamp, headset, stem and fatty fork which has clearance for up to a 3" tyre. The original eccentric bottom bracket is included and I can include a bushnell ebb too for £80 extra.

The frame can be run geared if you add a mech hanger.

The frame is in Edinburgh for viewing and collection or I can post it too as I have a box.

Selling for £175.

Thanks very much,

Martin

Do you have a price in mind Martin?

[macskive]

Ah, the important bit!

Looking for £200 for the frameset with standard ebb and a bit extra with the Bushnell one.

[macskive]

£190!

Ive been umming and arring all week but think it's probably too large for me looking at the geometry chart. But then I'm also more used to looking at geometry for road/cx bikes so I could be wrong.

How tall are you?

[macskive]

I'm 5ft 11 and normally go for a 56cm road/ cross frame (m/l in giant).

The size range according to a few sites is 5ft 10 to 6ft 1 which I reckon is about right. Any smaller than 5ft 10 and this would be too big I reckon.

[mjsmart]

Hmmm bang on my size then - I'm 6' and ride 56's too.

It looks like derailleur hangers are readily available but does it have routing for the cable too? I'm not convinced how well I'd cope with a SS in the Peak District!

[macskive]

There are no specific routing options for the cable but it can be clipped on to the brake hosing and then down the seat stay on the drive side.

I thought the same about singlespeed but I have loved it and will always have one in my garage now I think. It transforms your riding, keeps it simple and makes you a stronger rider I reckon.

If you would like to come for a look, just let me know.

[mjsmart]

Unfortunately it's a bit far for me to pop up and take a look! I might kick myself later but I'm going to have to be sensible and give the frame a miss. Instinct still says the top tube is going to be too long for my stubby little arms - and it tends to be right!

Thanks for answering my daft questions.

[macskive]

Not a problem mate, best to go with your gut perhaps.

Happy riding!!

£180!

I have now ordered a new frame so could do with moving this on. £175!
