Title: Raven Catalyst 853
Post by: JohnnyB63 on March 09, 2014, 08:14:50 PM

Selling my Catalyst 853 because just not getting the use it deserves. Bought in 2007 and cost £1623.99. It has had very little use in reality - hard to estimate mileage but I'd be surprised if it had done more than 1500 -2000 miles in that time.

Bought new by me and I still have original invoice which lists full spec but in short it's:-

853 frame (red with the celtic bands); size 532S-XL (I'm 5'8" and reckon it would suit 5'7" to 5'10")
Magura Odur 100mm forks (have a set of 853 steel ones with an uncut steerer that will come with it too)
Mavic XC717 wheels (front on Deore hub)
Thorn alloy straight bars & 90mm stem
Thorn ergo grips
deore chainset 38t ring & 170mm cranks
Rohloff 500/14 - 17t sprocket
Deore V-brakes
Conti contact tyres 1.75
Shimano pedals
San Marco Rolls saddle (or Fizik Gobi if preferred)

Think that's about it and bike has just been serviced too.

Not sure of pricing but based on original cost & limited use versus age, does £800.00 & postage seem reasonable?

Can do pics for those interested - will scan the invoice so you can see full spec.
