In great shape! Has nitto noodle handlebar shimano brakes along with
silver tektro interrupter brakes. Has a sugino triple crank do not
know the exact specs of it. And a 9 speed rear hub. Also has shimano
bar end friction shifters. Only things not be included are pedals,
seat post, and saddle. Ask for pictures and I will email them for you.
The frame is painted blue. I am asking for a reasonable 1600, as well
as the cost of shipping. I am located in the Los Angeles area if you
want to pick it up.

Thanks a bunch,

Duy Tran

I bought it from someone in LA who was selling it, he had it in
pristine condition as he did not ride it often. He did not know what
the specs are so I don't know. I have been to lazy myself to look, if
you want to know what they are I can easily find it out myself. The
amount of teeth on the crank chainrings and rear cassette were not a
big deal to me as I just saw a bike I wanted at the time and just
wanted to ride. After riding sometime with the rambouillet, and the
type of riding I do I found that this bike is just not for me. The
crank is a sugino but I'm not sure if it is the same as the XD shown
on the rivbike website. I am sad to part with it but it is not the
bike I am looking for and so I rather it go to someone else who wants
the bike and will put it to good use.

This bike is a beauty. I've had the great opportunity to see this bike
in person and I'm kinda sad that Duy is selling it. I'm pretty sure
this bike is a 52cm. I would have tried to steal this bike if it was a
50cm. I agreed the bike doesn't really suit Duy's riding style. Before
Duy left to LA he was my go-to-riding buddy when it came to local bike
rides. He has a great ability to pick a bike that, after touring on a
(ghasp) carbon fork, doesn't fit his riding needs. Congrats to that
lucky person who snags this beauty

Pictures prove that the bike exist:

Thanks for the pix, Manny.  i was wondering about those crazy-looking cranks, before I figured out what they were!  Cheers, Steve

Dang, look at that. With the 26-inch wheels and road brakes, it's a dead ringer for the first-year XO-1. My size, too. Sheesh.
