« on: December 16, 2009, 06:26:43 pm »

I got this for my wife to try out and she decided to use another saddle than this one. Only ridden about 2 miles so essentially new. An unusual design that is very effective at distributing the pressure away from your tender bits. Google: "ISM saddle" for info. f you are having trouble with saddle discomfort for long distance touring this may be a saddle to consider. new retail they are $80, will sell this for $45 obo.

Classifieds / Burley Nomad Trailer

« on: December 16, 2009, 06:20:37 pm »

In excellent condition with Schwalbe Big Apple 16x2.0 tires. I only used it for one 700 mile - 10 day tour of Florida. Stored in my garage. Tows so much better on pavement than either the BOB yak or ibex that I've also owned, but not as good on single or double track dirt as they will. Has the Burley QR attachment and 2 - 16" spare tubes. Cost new currently as is : $400. Will sell for $275. Folds flat for shipping. can send pics. Call Mark at 720-560-1178

58cm. frame(semi-sloping toptube) mid 90's Specialized Sequoia that was closer in design to the older Expedition than the new Sequoia. It was designed for loaded touring. Comes with drop bars, barcons, cantilever brakes, factory front and rear racks, hand built wheelsmith 36 hole 5wheels, sealed high end components, fenders, greenfield stand, integrated light system with under bottom bracket generator that is moved onto the tire by a cable attached to a shift lever behind the seat tube. Very cool and you can turn on the lights without stopping. Many braze ons including 3 fork eyelets , one for fenders, one for the front rack and one if you want to use low riders(mid fork braze ons too) as well. There is a Sigma computer on it. It has an ISM comfort saddle that I tried and is really comfortable for touring, but I am now only riding recumbents for touring because of wrist and hand problems. I hate to part with this bike as it is quite rare and in excellent condition as I've only used it for one 500 mile tour 12 years ago and a few days rides. It has always been kept in the garage. I paid $1300 for it new and will sell it for $750. Call Mark at 904-460-2379 or 720-560-1178. The bike is in St. Augustine FL.

The bike is being sold w/ the following items: Overland equipment front and rear panniers (similar in quality to Beckmans; they have never been used and include full rainproof covers), Tubus Tara front low rider rack, Novara handlebar bag, Sigma bike computer, mirror, fenders, all sealed bearings throughout. The bike came from the factory w/ a unique under bottom bracket generator system and is controlled by a lever-to-cable system brazoned behind the seat tube. The saddle is a Selle Anatomica Clydesdale (cost was $160 and is a Brooks type leather saddle but much more comfortable, requiring no break-in). The color is metallic brown; pics are available.
