Raven Tour

[Hoodatder]

Hi Everyone,

Seasonal greetings and compliments to all of you.
My cycling buddy is selling his Thorn Black Raven in the New Year.
It is Gloss Black with Brooks B17 saddle.
It really is in excellent condition and has only done about 2000 miles since new.
He is selling all three bikes and going electric.
I said I would post the bare info here with a photo that I took of it.
He is asking £1000 ono. It is a really good bike.
If any of you are interested, pm me and I will give you his phone number for further details.

Thank you for reading...will try and post the photo....keep your eyes peeled please.

And just for clarification.....it is not mine....that will come up for sale sooner or later.....preferably later

Size would be useful 
That's a good price for a lightly used Raven, if it's the right size I know someone who could be interested.

The guy who wants  it the most PM’d already and got his number 🙂

Then again, there’s maybe not enough bait on the hook yet to rouse desire

I actually starting writing something  out like “one quick question- what size is the frame? “ but then deleted it as I don’t think il follow through

Congratulations to the new owner who ever you are and will be

And just for clarification.....it is not mine....that will come up for sale sooner or later.....preferably later 

If it’s a Nomad mk2 590 frame in immaculate condition and not a spot of rust , with CSS rims and an uncut steerer with front dynamo with front and rear lights , and front and rear racks , then il be sure to keep an eye out . Especially if it’s BLACK

I have just messaged my friend and the frame size is 562L.

The bike is really as I described and in excellent condition - verging on mint.
I sold my beloved RST last week on a whim chance phone call. That was a stonker and I think I regret it already but I need to move things on.

Yes, ourclarioncall, you have a good memory. My Matt Black Raven Tour will be coming up for sale and I know someone who it would be perfect for, but he is indecisive. Still, no rush

I will try and get this photo uploaded. I have done this this before but it is saying my photo is too large , even if I compress it. I will get there.

The pub beckons and I hope a tasty bit of crumpet too.

Hi Ian

Thank you.  I have in the meantime brought a Raven Sports Tour but, again, thank you for your help.  Peter

[Hoodatder]

Hello Peter,

Pleased that you are now sorted. Think you missed a beauty RST that I have just sold.

Ah, c’est la vie. May have been a tad small but I think not.

Cheers

Ian
