2018 Igleheart Custom. Model is called the "Trail Poacher" It excels on gravel roads and paved roads. Butted steel and very rigid chainstays. 68mm threaded BB. Internal routing done the right way with a secondary tube inside. It's shown with 48mm tires with fenders. It's built for 650b/584. Dimensions/geometry is on a photo in the reel. The bike has relatively short wheelbase and is quite lively, but also "planted". Reynolds 853 steel. Classic Igleheart segmented fork. Paint is "James Bond Austin Martin Blue" from Black Magic. I am 6'0" and 190# and the bike fits me perfectly. Bike was designed to ride comfortably in the drops for minimal shoulder rotation and support.
Never mistreated. Sellwood Cycles built it up and has been caring for this from then. Never crashed. Never laid down. Not once. No frame problems. Sellwood has inspected the frame. I wax the chain and the chainrings and cassette have virtually no wear.
Highest quality parts on the entire bike. That was the policy when I built it up. The only reason I'm selling is I'm into fat biking and bike packing and I maintain a stable of 2 bikes only. I thought this was my forever bike, but I reckon things change.
For a test ride, bring your pedals. Bike is sold without pedals or the seat. (Price reduced for the seat.) Note, both fenders have some dents and scratches. These are shown. Bike also is equipped for Tubus racks. It's shown with one installed. I averaged only 2,500 miles per year on this bike. It hasn't been ridden much in the past couple years. Mostly was lunchtime rides. Not as much gravel roads and never single-tracked or taken beyond its appropriate usage.
This bike makes gravel roads feel like new tarmac. I am the original owner.
Tubes are triple butted.  Bottom Bracket and chainstays are nice and stiff.  This frame doesn't wobble.  The head tube and geometry is designed to ride comfortably and even in the drops.  My back is at a 45 degree angle on the hoods.  The drops are comfortable for long distances including descents. Parts List: Chris King headset. And kept the steerer tube full so it can be set any height. Nitto shallow drop bars. Sinewave charger on stem Schmidt SON Hub and "hot foot" connector in fork Velocity Blunt SS Wheels (new rear wheel) Rene Herse 177mm cranks 42/26 11-34 9 speed Shimano cassette I set up the bike for uphill spinning. Friction shifting (long live Russ) with the 90's Lance setup of downtube chainring and bar-end cassette. Giles Berthoud cutaway saddle Giles Berthoud rando bag and bar tape Panaracer Gravel King tires. 48mm / 650b/584 and setup tubeless. Fenders painted to match Silca pump, painted to match Nitto aluminum seat tube brass bell on stem Rene Herse rack IQ2 light powered by the SON generator hub (turns night into day) Rene Herse rear light powered by the SON Generator hub (always on) SKF bottom bracket Paul Klamper (Campy Pull, but can be changed) on front IS mount. Klamper has an option to purchase a short-pull lever.  The long pull can be purchased separately and installed easily, transforming this to any Shimano-type pull. Yokozuna flat mount on rear. Compressionless housing. 12mm thru axle front and rear. The paint job alone cost $1,800. The bike as built was ~$11,000
Even if you have a frame you want to build up as a classic rando or gravel bike, this could be stripped and outfit another bike and then use this frame for something else.
For shipping, the shipping cost is extra to the sale price.  Handling (boxing) costs $90 extra as well.
