Triatlonová Merida Warp

Ponúkam kvalitnú triatlonovú žiletku MERIDA WARP pre nádejného športovca :-) Bola dobre udržiavaná a veľmi málo jazdená. Dôvod predaja je nesprávna veľkosť (je mi o číslo menšia) Veľkosť rámu je 53. Kúpená v 2021 od triatlonového nadšenca s dôsledným prístupom ku používaniu a údržbe. Vhodná najmä pre záujemcu alebo záujemkyňu o triatlon. Detailnejšiu technickú špecifikáciu alebo otázky rád zodpoviem prednostne mailom. Ďakujem. Miloš Masarik ***** *****
