I have this beautiful fully custom built touring/road bike with hand built dynamo wheels up for sale.

I have many bikes I custom built in last few years and decreasing amount of time to ride all of them due to very busy job and family commitments I decided to sell this bike.  After few years of having that bike in storage  with near to zero use of it I decided to find good home for this fully custom bike as it deserves to be ridden.

It started at the beginning of 2017 with this special edition of Ridgeback Panorama Deluxe frame built with Retnolds 853 steel (main triangle) and Reynolds 525 steel (rear triangle) all in gorgeous rusty orange colour.

I had clear view in my head on how I wanted to build that touring bike hoping to have great adventures on it.

I had some parts already for that bike and got some missing ones to finally get whole bike built in the end of 2019.

Got out for ride 3 times and done roughly 200 miles on this bike in dry weather and that was it. Amazing bike with true comfort, very responsive with real joy and big smile on face. Loved this bike. It rides like dream. 

Then I've started my own business and got very busy right away with family and three children I had no time to ride all my bikes with no plans for touring adventures at all. Kept this bike inside for last over 4 years pumping up tyres from time to time and dusting it off regularly, that was it.

Would be real shame to let this dream adventure bike stay inside with no rides for another few years.

Summer is coming up and this bike wants to go for long touring trip.

Full specification:

Frame: Ridgeback Panorama Deluxe special edition Reynolds 853 / Reynolds 525 rear triangle, 57cm, QR 135mm drop out spacing, BSA threaded bb shell, 

Fork: Reynolds 520 with QR 100mm drop outs, 1 1/8" steerer tube

Headset: Chris King classic silver with carbon headset spacers

Wheels: Hand built pair of wheels with Supernova front dynamo hubs which has got fantastic on/off switch on side of the hub. When you need power you turn it on and off when you do not need power which is friction less operation. Rear wheel based on legendary Hope XC hub with steel Shimano HG freehub. Both wheels laced with Sapim Race double butted black spokes to amazing quality, welded H+SON The Hydra rims. Very strong and elegant rims. Both wheels toped with green Sapim alloy nipples.

Both wheels are 32H. All bearings in both hubs are super smooth.

Mudguards: M-Part full length polycarbonate plastic, actually the best ones I ever used with big bottom flaps

Tyres: Continental Contact 622-28 in mint condition, ridden 3 times along with most of drive train parts

Brake and shift levers: Shimano Ulgergra 6700 STI, 2x10

Cassette: Shimano XT 10 speed, 11-32

Chain: Shimano Ultegra/XT 10 speed chain

Rear derailleur: Shimano Ultegra 6700,  long cage

Bike is in superb condition, had many new parts fitted and barely ridden as I did not have time to ride.

There is 2 small marks on non dive side seat stay just above rear brake caliper which are just cosmetic. I do not really know how they appeared on frame. Tiny scratches (barely visible) on side of drive side chain stay caused probably in storage.

I'm sure you won't find similar spec bike for that money or if you manage to find it with high spec hand built wheels it would be way more expensive. Fantastic, very practical set up with mechanical disc brakes, very powerful even on fully loaded touring bike which you can fix them yourself with just new brake cable.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me.

I prefer local collection but I can also pack bike in sturdy bike box and post with fully insured and trackable service at extra cost.

Thank you for looking.
