Retro Leeson Goodness - 609


Brettoll

Recommended Posts

After regretfully selling my 660 11+ years ago.. I always wanted another Leeson, 609 was always the preferred. From the Facebook groups, managed to pick up this frame set and have been slowly building it up (alongside a Hex, Koxx Levelboss) and it is super close to riding! Seat post is a "for now" as the diameter is 25mm and finding one that I can slam is proving difficult.

Spec:

  • Leeson 609 frame and Leeson custom disc Pashley forks
  • Polished square taper Middleburn crankset (will have V8's in chrome pedals)
  • Chris King ISO in pewter hubs laced to Tartybike 24" rims, green nipples (QRs will be changed to bronze) - K RAD tyres front and rear
  • Thompson 90x10 stem and a set of Inspired Pro Risers
  • System X 25mm post and Burgtec Cloud saddle (chromo rails!!)
  • Brakes will be XTR rear v with carbon booster / Avid BB7 front - both with Odyssey Slick cables
  • Have a set of Console forks as well as the Pashley steerer is short!

Will have this as a bit of a collectible whilst the Hex gets the main rider treatment, but she is a piece of art!!
