She’s a beauty that rides as well as she looks but I’m out of storage space.  I had bites but no takers at $3K so here it goes at $2500 in hopes of moving it along. . .
   
- Bars are Albatross alloy with Nitto Technomic Deluxe stem and Ultegra headset.  
- Wheels are polished Velocity A23 32h rims (rear O/C) laced with DT Comp DB spokes to a White Ind M15 in the rear and a 32h SonDelux in front.  
- BB is a Phil Wood.  
- The 8spd drivetrain is an Ultegra RD and Ultegra 8spd Shifters (on Paul Thumbies) paired IRD compact front. 
- Fenders are V/O Zeppelin.  
- Tubus rear rack is Ti.  
- Rear light does not function and is a reflector only.  
- Saddle and pedals are included, as are the Pitlock security skewers and an additional standard set.
- Sugino RD2 50/34 and an 8spd 11/32 cassette in back.
- Rear spacing in 135mm.

Saddle height in the photos is 77cm.   Excellent condition with no dents or dings.  A few scratches (shown in photos) with the most notable being on the drive side seat stay and the front of the seat post lug.  I’ll include close-but-not-perfect enamel nail polish. :)

$2500 plus actual shipping.


Please reply off-list with interest.

Thanks!

I'm probably just kicking the tires on this, but what are the theoretical top tube lengths on these things?  Were they designed to be upright, or do they work equally well for drop bars?  

Best regards,
Matt

HI Matt,

I measure the theoretical top tube at 57cm.  In the past, I’ve had it set up with drops and liked it very much, though the stem was shorter than the 12cm currently installed.  I think I used an 8cm or a 9cm.  I’m nearly 70, a bit overweight, and not as flexible as I once was, and so the upright position.
