Re: FS - 58 Orange Quickbeam

I think that's my old bike.  If so, it was sold to me as 58, but is a 60.

I've decided to go a different direction mid-build. This one is well used, but no dents or dings. Took pics of a couple spots of missing paint, but the paint has wear all over the bike. I can take more pics if needed. I have a brand new set of QB decals and headbadge, so this is a perfect candidate for a new paint job!

Measuring QBs seems to be harder than it should be based on other listings, but this one measures 58cm from the center of the crank bolt to the center of the top tube.

I'm offering this in a choose your own flavor fashion. As pictured it's a total hodge podge. The crank is a VO Grand Cru double that has the inner ring taken off. The front wheel is a vintage Trek take-off, 36h, nothing special wheel.

The rear is the star of the show. 32h Phil flip flop hub, 16-18 WI dos eno one side and  Surly 17-20 Dingle on the other. Currently laced to a Mavic Open Pro, but has hairline cracks on a few of the nipples. 

I'm keeping the pedals, saddle, and seatpost. Cockpit is currently Nitto Deluxe w/ Noodles. I've got other parts in my parts bin.

 

Frame/Fork/Headset/BB price - $800 + shipping from Lawrence, KS. 

If you want parts, we'll put together a package and work on a price.

Thanks for the input, I've never found definitively how Riv measures their ST. I always assumed it was C-C, hence why I called this one a 58. The measurements of my Hilsen corresponded with Riv's geo charts when measuring C-C. Anyways, this one is 58 C-C and 60 C-T, so take that for what it's worth.
