Specialized Epic Carbon Fiber
I got this bike recently. It's a carbon fiber lugged frame. My best guess is it's 1993 vintage. The PO converted it to a single speed. (I refurbished it to a new 8 speed drive train. All new STI levers, chain, cogs, cables, bar wrap, bottom bracket, rim tape & tubes). Weighs in at 22.5lb on my luggage scale. It's a magnificent riding bike. Very smooth. Quiet. Good chainline. Nice. It still had the original 8 speed Ultegra STI levers on it when I got it. But, all the other original equipment had been removed. It's got Tektro caliper brakes. "Micro new" 8 speed shifters. Sora FD & Acera RD. All good. What a beast. Rides like a dream. What are your thoughts about vintage CF bikes?
