For Sale: 65cm Specialized Sequoia frame, fork, seat post, and FSA head set . Blue. I believe it to be a 1983 model.
This would make a great poor man's Rivendell Rambouillet. I've owned both and they feel like siblings to me.
This is a really nice Sequoia, with one semi-major caveat. It came from specialized with two bottle mounts — one on the top of the down tube, the other underneath the down tube. Someone prior to me in this bike’s life drilled two holes in the seat tube for a third bottle, but they are not quite straight, nor are they nut-serted or tapped. I put tape over the holes and then put a Velo-Orange bottle mount in the proper spot (covers the holes) — you can see it in the photos.
Overall I’d call the paint pretty good — there are a few scuffs and on one fork leg and one seat stay the chrome is showing through a scrape. I am including the seep-down cable end for the rear derailleur cable mount on the chain stay.
This is a wonderful riding bike — I had one and sold it a few years ago, missed it, so bought this one, and have recently acquired another frame in the 68.5 cm size which fits me better. Due to the water bottle mount issue I’m selling this at what I consider to be a bargain price.
$100 plus actual cost shipping (I’ll pack it carefully at no cost) within the CONUS.
PayPal F&F preferred.

Whoever was tall enough and lucky enough to snag this for $100 might want to take the opportunity to learn how to install rivnuts. One affordable tool and a couple/few rivnuts will have you good to go, and you'll then also have the tools and knowledge to install threaded bosses anywhere/everywhere your heart desires.
They seriously are not all difficult to figure out and install.
