9 gear Mezzo D9 folding bike, similar dimensions to a Brompton. I love the quality of the ride with this Mezzo D9. It folds to similar dimensions to a Brompton, though to a slightly larger fold: 690mm (length) x 645mm (height) x 360 (width).I've used every one of these gears and have appreciated the choice they offer.The fold is quick and easy one you have mastered it - but I recommend including some time for a tutorial from me when you collect it. Here is a link to a review of a Mezzo D9. The reviewer seems to have had a bike with a different (taller) folded height to this one and makes a reference to noisy brakes that also doesn't apply to this one. But overall it seems like a fair review, and reflects why I chose this model. https://www.bikeradar.com/reviews/bikes/folding-bikes/mezzo-d9-review/I took it to my local bike repair shop in August and they helpfully provided a receipt with a short description (linked). I haven't ridden it since, so the condition of the bike remains as described by the shop.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vbUcn3ONP9tF0qZBDwA5wTIRCAn8S10Z/view?usp=drivesdkThere is some minor damage to the plastic grip on one of the handles (I've added a photo of this). I'm also not completely satisfied, despite the confidence of the bike shop, that the rear wheel is completely true with the rack: I think there may be some very slight drag but so minor that it might be my imagination (certainly the bike shop didn't notice it).Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.Collection only, from near Waterloo railway station and Lambeth North underground station. Postcode SE11 6LL.On 18-Dec-20 at 20:52:48 GMT, seller added the following information:An Ebayer has asked me if I bought the bike first hand and why I am selling it: I bought my first Mezzo D9 about ten years ago and enjoyed it so much that I indulged myself with buying a second one as a back-up for times when my primary bike was in for maintenance or repair. The chap I bought this "back-up bike" from told me he had given it quite light use over one year, for commuting, and it was certainly in excellent condition. I gave it light use too. It was nearly always unused, in fact. The last time I used it was in the summer of 2017. Which is clearly a ridiculous waste of a good bike. This August I took it to a bike shop for a once-over, and now I am finally advertising it. I am keeping my "primary" D9.On 20-Dec-20 at 21:45:38 GMT, seller added the following information:Since posting this advert, I have spotted three places with cosmetic damage in addition to the rubber grip on one of the handlebars. I have provided photos. One may just be down to wear and tear. The other two have the same source as the damage to the rubbber grip: an accident that caused this cosmetic damage but which didn't affect the bike's performance..On 20-Dec-20 at 22:14:22 GMT, seller added the following information:The bike is located in London, which is now in Tier 4. I have looked up the rules and they appear to allow collection given that the collection would be outdoors, in the shared car park of the building where Iive. They say:1. "You can exercise or visit a public outdoor place by yourself or, when on your own, with 1 person from another household."2. "The list of reasons you can leave your home and area include, but are not limited to: buying goods or services from premises that are open in Tier 4 areas, including essential retail".3. "Other businesses and venues are permitted to stay open...This includes those providing essential goods and services, including: bicycle shops". So if you need to buy a bike, I think collecting it from an outdoors location, meeting just one other person, would be within the rules and the spirit of the rules, even within Tier 4. But if you win the auction and want to delay collection, I can be flexible. Here is the url for gov.uk: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/tier-4-stay-at-home#stay-at-home
