Nazca Fuego

Please find for sale my Nazca Fuego recumbent bike.

I bought it used in May last year from a gentleman in the Netherlands who had owned it from new.

I bought it after selling my Quest XS velomobile and becoming extremely grumpy when not being able to go out riding, after extensive research I decided to buy a Fuego as it fulfilled my needs as a fast easy to ride very adjustable bike, do not just take my biased opinion on this please read reviews, especially one by Dave McCraw  http://mccraw.co.uk/nazca-fuego-review/.

I put just over a 1k miles on it last summer, I found it easy to get used to and was soon on the lowest (fastest) riding position, having rediscovered recumbent riding and missing my Velomobile in particular I put my order in for a new one.  As soon as the first autumn rain started I put the bike away thinking that I could use both machines in 2015.  However, since getting my new Velomobile the bike has remained unridden, I’m not a N+1 person, so if it’s not used then off it must go.

The bike is in very good condition, mechanically it works perfectly, the frame has a few scuffs on it when looking closely partially to blame for this is the soft paint.  I have adjusted the chain run and dropped the return side to make it more efficient, I have retained all parts to lift the chain again for tighter turns (I will include a portion of chain and connectors to allow this)

Bike details:

Blue

Frame fit for someone about 5’6 to 6’0, maybe more but I wouldn’t be confident of this.

Glassfibre seat with Ventisit seat cushion

Day rack with integral reflector/rear light

Tiagra triple FD

Triple chainrings: 48, 34, 24

12 – 32 9 speed cassette with SRAM X7 RD

Cranks are Shimano M543 170mm

B/B is Shimano external bearing hollow “Mountain”

Avid BB7 mechanical discs and levers, plenty of pad left, discs are hardly marked

Rear suspension via DNM steel spring/oil damper which is fully adjustable

Fully adjustable lifting tiller to ease getting on-off.

Fitted tyres are Schwalbe Duranos on Wienmann rims with Deore front and SLX rear hubs – plain spokes.

ESGE Pletscher side stand

Zefal bottle holder

Front light mount

Currently fitted with Shimano A520 one sided SPD pedals although I can fit double sided or even Look pedals in exchange

Extra’s included in asking price:

Part worn Schwalbe Marathon racers (fitted when I bought it)

Full size SKS mudguards

Short “sport” mudguards by Qbike

Altura Night Vision “Day Bag”

Alloy side pannier rack

Terracycle mirror

M5 Carbon Fibre Headrest

Open Cockpit Handle bars

Chain ring guard

Price for all the above £950, I can deliver within a 50 mile radius of Melton Mowbray for cost of fuel.

Cheers

Ian
