As part of my ongoing shed clearout I'm selling another bicycle - the Tifosi CK7 in a size Medium. Tifosi is a British brand that makes bikes, which are Italian in spirit. The Tifosi CK7 regularly received stellar reviews: In 2016 alone it was awarded 10/10 by Cycling Plus, 4.5 out of 5 stars by Cycling Weekly and Best in Test by Bikes Inc. Mine is a 2017 Campagnolo Veloce/Miche-equipped model that was bought brand new and unused by me in early 2018. I bought this as an all-rounder for winter training, commuting and child-carrying duties; however, just a few months after buying it I started working from home. I've since bought a hybrid for local child-carrying duties and a carbon-framed bike that takes mudguards for bad-weather training, so I can no longer justify owning this. Plus, our 4-year old now has a bike of his own now so we really need the space!I ran it with a shorter stem and a different saddle and have re-fitted the original Cinelli DNA Stem and Selle Italia X1 saddle which are essentially unused. The only other modifications I made were to add Cane Creek crosstop levers (very useful in London traffic!), Fizik handlebar tape and some Deda bottle cages. Apart from that, this lovely bike is being sold as per the original specification including the original Vittorio Rubino tyres which have thousands of kilometres left in them.This is a great bike that I wish I had ridden more. It's really quick with sharp handling and really sure-footed in bad weather. Having full-length mudguards helps you and your club mates a little dryer. It also takes a rear rack meaning you could take panniers and use it for fast, light touring, Audax riding or carrying a child (with the appropriate rack and seat of course).As the dark wet days continue to draw in this bike will really come into its own so if you can give this a good home please do - you won't regret it! This is a well looked after bike that has been regularly serviced by reputable local bike shops despite not being used a lot. RRP was £1,000 new and is in great condition so a bargain at the Buy it Now price. I have a file of receipts for all work. Note that the bar tape has not worn well on the top of the handlebar on the left hand side. I have no idea why this is as it really hasn't been used all that much!Collection from Highams Park, North East London (Overground).
