Details about  Trek 7.6 FX (2007 model) 25in frame

Thanks for looking in on this auction for my 5-year old Trek 7.6 FX.

Its 25in frame suits 6-footers; I'm 6ft3 (& 18 stone of pure beefcake) and it's been fantastic for me. I've only used it to cycle to work - 3 miles return, 4-5 days a week, 40 weeks a year on roads and cycleway - and the occasional ride to nearby country pubs. In that time I've had it regularly serviced every 12-14 months (e.g. brakes replaced when worn, everything greased or lubed) and just last year had the rear cog cassette changed and at Easter this year the crank was changed.

Included in the sale are an anatomical saddle (gel saddle with a hole cut in it to maintain blood flow where it matters) and a suspension seat post, mud guards, pedals with toe clips (not the cleated shoe pedal, I've never had them) and spare set of hybrid tyres - it currently runs on slicks. And apparently you can adjust the angle of the handlebars although I've never tried this.

Despite its regular servicing there is wear and tear to its paintwork, which is to be expected in a bike of this age and use, and I have tried to show in the pictures. This is mostly where my padlock has banged against the frame and chipped the paint, or scuff marks e.g. where a child's seat was attached to the frame or the bike was leant against a wall in the past.

If you are interested then feel free to ask questions and I will do my best to answer them honestly. I am away 31/7 - 5/8 and don't know if I have internet access in that time however. Please note this is collection from Kendal - either in person or by courrier. I'm happy for the winning bidder to arrange private courrier, and as I'm on school holidays I can easily be around to sign it over to the courrier at this end. If this is you then please contact me with your intentions once the sale ends and payment has been made.

I understand the 7.6 is a high spec bike, and a new model could cost up to £900 in Wheelbase in Staveley.
