Hi All, I'm considering selling my 2013 700C Box Dog Pelican randonneur, and I'd love to see it go to someone in the SFR community. The seat tube is 60cm center-center (or 62cm center-top), and the top tube is 59cm. This is a low-trail bike, with a head angle of 73 degrees, fork offset around 60mm, and the resultant trail is about 40mm with 700x32mm tires. For more background, see https://www.boxdogbikes.com/pelican-full. I purchased this frame in 2013 as the first of the made-by-Winter Cycles batch, and have meticulously cared for it since then. With the exception of two minute scratches, it is in as-new condition. A complete album of photos of the bike is available on my Flickr account - https://flickr.com/photos/jimg/albums/72157632253835795/

I have equipped this bicycle with a self-made custom front rack & decaleur, Zugster front rando bag, a custom super-bright LED dyno-powered headlamp with remote switch, and a vintage tail lamp with LED bulb retrofit. The drivetrain is mostly 9spd Ultegra 6500 series with Dura-Ace downtube shifters. SON 28 front hub. Tektro 720 cantilever brakes. Mavic Open Pro rear and MA3 front rims supporting Gradd Bois Cypress tires. Velo-Orange fenders. Nitto B115 handlebars. I have a spare fork in Pelican blue that I will include.

I really enjoy this Pelican, but I prefer riding my self-made, custom 650B randonneur. As such, I've barely ridden this bike.

I would like to sell either the frame/fork/fenders/front rack/decaleur/Zugster bag for $2000, or the complete bike (saddle not included) for $3000. Local sale only, I do not want to ship.

Please contact me via private email with any questions.

Thanks!
