Al frame, CF fork, Tiagra 10-speed .... and there probably aren't a lot of XXXXL frames on the market. Don't let him know you like it ... just scope it out and go "Hmmmm ... " a lot and tap stuff with a fingertip.
Bike retailed for like $1250 new, and the only drawback was the serviceable but heavy wheels .... same as any other bike pretty much.
Thanks for the info to both of you. Yes, I literally have only found that bike in a 62,everyrhing else is 58 and under. I think it will fit because I was able to try a new 62 1.1 and liked it. But didn't want to spend the 770 on claris if I can get a better bike used.
Would you go for a new 1.1 or a 2013 1.5?
