About this bike

Seller Description:

Struggled with how to categorise this bike as there was nothing between almost new and good - can't say almost new when the frame is 17 years old but equally to say this bike is in good condition undersells it. Especially since titanium doesn't age so the age is relatively irrelevant. I have looked after it immaculately and despite its age it hasn't been ridden as much as some of my bikes I've had for a few years, hence why I'm selling it. Ride is exceptional and it's an exceptionally comfortable bike. Reality is though I don't ride as much as I used to and in summer I ride my Tarmac and in winter I tend to ride off road or Zwift, so having this sit in the corner doesn't seem right as it should be ridden. Bought as a frame and built up with a different groupset initially but its current parts went on new in 2012. Setup as follows: Frame - Van Nicholas Titanium Yukon Forks - Van Nicholas Carbon fork Crankset - FSA Carbon SLK light Shifters, front and rear derailleurs - Dura Ace 7900 (with Token jockey wheels) Brake Calipers - apologies can't remember the exact name but they were Shimano's Ultegra level wide brakes for larger clearance tyre (they didn't make dura ace level large clearance brakes) Wheelset - Dura Ace 7900 with 32c Continental Gatorskin tyres Headset - Chris King Seatpost - FSA SLK Saddle - Selle Italia SLR Flow Bars - FSA Shallow Drop Stem - FSA Pedals - not included cos, well what's the point? There are a few nicks on the transfers which I've shown in the photos but the frame itself has held up very well, as you'd expect from titanium. The decals on the bars have rubbed off quite a bit on the left side too from out front garmin mount. Also a couple of scratches on the rear mech where some annoying kid knocked my bike over 10 years ago and then his parents shouted at me for being slightly upset (not that I bear a grudge). Also a scratch on the crankset just from shoes. Can see all these in the photos. Also I had to put my height down when listing for some reason - please don't buy a bike simply based on height. I'm 6ft1 and fits me like a glove but you might be shorter or taller and it still fit or you could be 6ft1 and it not fit. All I will say about the sizing is its short reach. Despite being a 56 its about 54.5 effective top tube which is why I've got a 12cm stem on it which is longer than any of my other bikes. Got quite a few stems kicking around so if you want a 11cm stem I can easily put a different one on, just won't be FSA (so won't match the crankset, bars and seatpost).

Upgrades:

I didn't buy this as a bike, I bought it as a frame. I've then upgraded those compoents over the years which is why the parts are considerably newer than the frame.

Damage:

No
