The one bike I was sure I was going to put up for sale last night, is a 2002 Lemond Zurich, with Ultegra 9 spd, 1/2 silver 1/2 metallic blue, Rolf blue anodized wheels. I think it's ungainly looking with 3ttt forgie stem & fork stub sticking up too far, and those brifters with the shift cables sticking out the sides...Ugly to my C&V eye.
I decided I should ride it before I posted it. Only fair, right? (I've been riding 3 regularly, 3 others occasionally, this was the first time this season for the Lemond, and the first time since March for brifters.)
Awkward, always reaching down...
Dang it's a smooth, easy bike to ride. And the ugly seat I put on it last winter, to sell- was very comfortable, over 15 miles, NO sciatica. Woo hoo...
So I didn't list it. I'm going to go out on it again right now.
I have to deleverage... I've got wheels in the bathtub, for Pete's sake, I have to move them every morning.
