Independent Fabrication Crown Jewel 53 cm road bike
This is a lovingly-built steel frame by the original IF crew in 1998. Mountain biking has been my first love, so this bike has been relatively lightly ridden. Raced a bit but no crashes. No dents or dings. British racing green paint has only a couple of hard to find nicks, and seat tube has been regularly treated with Frame Saver (the rest of the tubes are sealed).
Size is 53 cm/20.9 (measurement of seat tube from center of bottom bracket to top of seat tube). Top tube length is 55cm/21.25. Standover height is 30.5. I am 56 with a 29 inseam. 16.5 chainstays. Wheelbase 39.4.
