Handsling A1R0evo, Size 54. Price as described £1500, which is about £400 less than I paid. For £1100 I could spec the bike with a set of Fulcrum Racing 4 aluminium wheels fitted with Vittoria Rubino Pro 30mm tyres. Collection preferred. To deliver I'd have to find a bike box and a courier and from past experience its not cheap. Loads more pictures. Read a review of a similar model here: https://road.cc/content/review/handsling-a1r0evo-shimano-ultegra-di2-r8100-300233

I bought this a few months ago and although I like it, it just doesn’t fit me. It’s a size 54; I’m 175cm tall and the bike is set up for me in the pictures; distance from the top of the seat to the pedal is 89cm. The stem is 120mm

It has a great, though mixed spec:

Shimano 105 12 speed Di2 shifters and mechs
Shimano 11-34 Cassette
Shimano Ultegra Brake callipers
Shimano 160mm front disc and 140mm rear disc
Rotor Vegast Chainset, 172.5 cranks and 52/36 chainrings
New KMC Gold chain
Deda Superbox 120mm stem and Deda Superzero 400mm handlebar.
Deda Elementi SL45 Carbon wheelset. The rims state “Ceramic Bearings” but these may have been replaced with non-ceramic by the previous owner however the wheels run free, smooth and true.
Selle Italia X3 saddle
Tyres are as new, Pirelli P Zero Race TLR SL 30mm, currently set up tubeless.
Included are pedals (Look fitting), 2 bottle cages and a computer mount with fittings for either Garmin or Wahoo

There is some light cosmetic crash damage (I fell off at walking pace) to the wheels and RH shifter. I had the bike safety checked by an experienced mechanic at my local bike shop and it has a clean bill of health.

There are a few age-related wear and tear marks but nothing serious. I believe the bike is ex DAS-Handsling women’s race team (2023).

I like that, but the riding position looks quite aggressive- it does appear to be a proper race bike. 120mm stem on that size frame gives quite an aggressive riding position.
Not suitable for me - I need an endurance, softer riding position these days, but will show the ad to some of my cycling mates to see if there is any interest.

Although the riding position is quite aggressive it’s also quite aero and the ride isn’t really harsh. If I was a bit shorter I’d fit a riser bar and 110mm stem and it would fit me better. Turns out I’m not as flexible as I thought

That’s my problem - not as flexible as I used to be!
