For Sale: Singlespeed Road Bike – upgraded Specialized Langster

I have a Specialized Langster singlespeed road bike that I hardly ever use that I’m selling.  I had bought it for commuting but I only used it infrequently and since we moved offices in March I don’t have a nice secure basement to lock it in anymore and it’s too bling to lock outside my new office.  I’m also moving house so it will be one less thing to move!

It’s a 2007 56cm but a lot of the parts have been upgraded (lovely set of wheels, quality transmission, Ultegra brakes, seatpin etc.).  Full spec is:

  • Specialized A1 Premium Aluminium frame, fully manipulated tubing, compact design, integrated headset;
  • Specialized carbon fork, carbon fibre legs, aluminium steerer;
  • Specialized Mindset, 1 1/8″ integrated threadless, sealed bearings, alloy 20mm cone w/ one 10mm and two 5mm alloy spacers;
  • Specialized Sport, 3D forged alloy stem, 31.8mm split clamp, 7 degree;
  • Specialized Comp, 6061 alloy, short-reach drop handlebars, 31.8mm;
  • Cinelli Carbon Fibre effect ribbon w/ 2.5mm gel padding
  • Shimano 6500 Ultegra 175mm cranks and Octalink BB;
  • TA Specialities 48T Track chainring;
  • White Industries Eno (the best) 18T freewheel;
  • Izumi 1/8″ track chain;
  • Ft wheel: Hope Ti Fatso 32H QR hub with DRC ST17 rim, stainless DB spokes and X-Lite skewer;
  • Rr wheel: Goldtec 36H allen bolt mounted hub with DRC ST17 rim and stainless spokes;
  • Specialized Mondo, 700x23C, wire bead tyres;
  • Carbon Seat post (not the aluminium sleeved original);
  • SpecializedComp Roadsaddle;
  • Specialized CNC, alloy seat binder;
  • Shimano BR-R600 (Ultegra standard) brakes;
  • Cane Creek SCR-5 Silver brake levers;
  • Specialized alloy bottle cage.

Would probably suit someone a few inches either side of 6ft in height.

Other than a couple of stone chips, the bike is in absolute mint condition.  Would make an excellent training or winter bike.

Looking for £350 for it.  If anyone’s interested let me know before it goes on the classifieds…
