Kingcycle For Sale
 
Kingcycle available - currently stripped down for basic restoration/upgrade. Frame and forks are in good condition, original wheels and groupset. Seat has faded but is also in good condition - frame is in good condition. Magura Brakes. Tyres need replacing and the bike will also require a replacement brake or fix as the hose has split where it joins the brake lever. I have one new Michelin Front Tyre (White Wall) that will be included in the sale. Pictures to follow next week as the bike is currently stored at my place of work. Selling due to too many projects on the go.

I might be interested in this - will it fit me? I'm 5'11", with a 41" x-seam. You don't by any chance have a nose cone and go-faster bag too do you?

Does this mean there's now a Velokraft NoCom for sale??

PS: Don't forget you're probably going to need a tailbox for the KC as well as a nosecone if you're going to fit a bag.

Much as Ms B would like to get rid of 'that funny bike' from pride of place in our living room, the Nocom is staying put for the mo! I see the Kingcycle more as a training tool, but it'll be interesting to see how fast it goes 'bagged up'.

(I haven't actually told Ms B that I've bought the Kingcycle yet - it's hiding in the shed) :)

Kingcycle is now fully re-built with shiny new bits, but isn't getting used as much as I thought (commuting) so it's back up for sale on ebay:
