FULL SPECS
Time to go so I'll sell my beloved bicycle. It's a good bike, it's reliable, it runs smooth and it's seriously fast. Cycling in Korea is great and the best cycling season, autumn, is almost here so get your bike now.
It's a Black Cat 3.0D, black colour, 17" frame, 27-speed Deore gears, Shimano mechanical disk breaks and a basic suspension fork. I've had it since last year October and it's been working like a dream. I like the frame geometry, it feels like riding my old Specialized Rockhopper. Disc brakes make riding safer and are nearly maintenance-free.
I haven't done any MTB bashing with this, just urban riding around Seoul. On the often rough streets and roads of Seoul an MTB is a must. The tyres are for MTB use but roll smooth.
I'm 178cm tall, I would say the frame size is good for a 165-185cm tall rider. But, you try before buy to make sure it fits.
It comes with head- and backlights, a lock, a portable toolkit, a decent tyre pump and has a bottle holder installed. It's all set, ready to ride.
It goes for 250 000won.
For an extra 30 000won you will get a black Trek Vapor helmet. I won't be selling it separately though.
I will be leaving Korea on August 22nd. You can come and have a look/try the bike any time but I won't be giving it away before August 17th. I will clean it and do some minor maintenance to it before selling.
It's located in Seongbuk-gu, Seoul, between Bomun station / Line 6 and Sungshin Women's Uni station / Line 4. It can be taken to subway outside rush hour.

I put the price down to 250 000. I'll put it to a Korean cycling board soon where it will be sold in no time so this is your last chance  |

Oh....the "this sale will not last" technique. i'm sure that everyone who was interested in this bike/helmet will be grateful that you gave them the first opportunity to buy it. |

This is off-topic but... I put the bike to the Korean board for 270 000 and got it sold in 2hours, bike has a new owner now.
So, if you wanna find a 2nd hand bike or sell yours, I recommend http://www.bikesell.co.kr/ (hope this ad is not against ESL-cafe rules) |
