Description
Used Raleigh Grand Sport Aluminum XXS Road Bike (Shimano Tiagra 3×8 Speed)
Ideal for compact riders seeking agility and performance on paved paths or urban commutes, this Raleigh Grand Sport Aluminum XXS road bike combines lightweight durability with Shimano Tiagra precision. Designed for riders between 4’9″ to 5’2″, its 47cm seat tube and 50cm effective top tube ensure optimal control and comfort on short jaunts or longer adventures.
Key Features:
– Frame & Geometry: Aluminum frame with carbon fork delivers responsive handling; standover height of 73cm suits petite builds.
– Drivetrain: Shimano Tiagra rear derailleur and FSA Vero crankset (50/39/30T) offer smooth 24-speed gearing for varied terrain.
– Stopping Power: Tektro rim brakes paired with alloy wheels (Alex Rims DA16) ensure reliable braking in dry conditions.
– Tires: Front Continental Gatorskin (700x23c) for low rolling resistance; rear Schwalbe Lugano (700x25c) provides added grip.
Condition & Maintenance:
Rated 7/10 overall with minimal wear—frame scuffs are minor, cables/housing score 8/10 for crisp shifting. Perfect for entry-level riders, college commuters, or fitness enthusiasts prioritizing affordability over pristine condition.
Why It Stands Out:
– Compact geometry ideal for women’s road biking or city navigation
– Shimano Tiagra components balance reliability and value compared to entry-level bikes
– Lightweight 23 lbs frame makes lifting/easy storage a breeze
Fits Best For:
– Urban commuters seeking a compact road bike for women
– Fitness riders upgrading from hybrid bikes
– College students needing a durable commuter bike
Note: Local purchases include a 60-day mechanical warranty.
