Hello and thank you for looking at my listing. The frameset is in fantastic shape considering its 33 years of age, some light bubbles under the lacquer but no damage or issues.

The frame is made of carbon tubes & alu lungs, with a lovely rear monostay. Size is 57cm for the top tube (centre to centre), seat tube is 56cm (ctc) so that corresponds to a Size Large (L), suitable for someone around 5ft11 - 6ft1 ish. The bike originally had an early 2x7 speed Shimano 105 groupset with downtube shifters, I have replaced it with a Shimano 6400 "600 TriColor" 2x8 speed groupset with brifters (FD, RD, crankset, brakeset, hubs).

That's the early Ultegra level groupset. Wheelset has Shimano 600 hubs & Mavic CXP12 clincher rims + Hutchinson Kevlar 700c X 23mm tyres. The freehub is the later HyperGlide (which can also take early 7/8 speed cassettes with no lockring), which is rare in itself.

Saddle is a Vetta SL, pedals are entry level cage ones to get you home. New gear & brake cables (inner & outer) were fitted last year, the bottom bracket and headset were regreased, the wheels were trued and the chain was changed. Tyres, brake pads are very lightly used so it has good years ahead! Works well considering its age, it is obviously not the latest tech but at the asking price, you could just use the frameset to fit a modern groupset.

As always, I'd recommend getting the bike serviced if you are planning to rack up big miles. Happy to take cash or bank transfer. This item is in the category "Sporting Goods\Cycling\Bikes".

The seller is "vincent_from_london" and is located in this country: GB. This item can be shipped to United Kingdom.
