    Its an OCR of some description, so lower down the range. Those pics are legendary, I can't believe the seller couldn't even be bothered to get the bike out from under the masses of accumulated crap in his shed before taking photos.

    Yeh its an OCR...around 2004 (give or take)...alloy frame..."entry level" road bike with a more user-friendly geometry then the TCR's.
    Classic photo...those large flat red pedals aren't out of place at all ;-) !

    With so little info and a lack of responce to questions I would be very wary of bidding on it IMO
  • and he seems to want £35 for you to collect in person :shock:

    Do you even know what size it is?

    Just looks like a lazy seller to me, so he's unlikely to be trying to get an unreasonably high price for it.

    Or maybe he's a she, just kicked her other half out and is selling all his stuff??

    Make an offer for the wrought iron bedstead and the workmate

    no idea of size but looks like a 54 or 56 to me. i put the photo into photoshop and used the crank as a guide to measure.
