Stuff For Sale Before It Goes On E-Bay

From Carl Ring, ringcycles@yahoo.com

(I don't know him).


"Before I put these on Ebay, I have a couple of items for sale (new bike on the way, need to make room and raise cash)

2000 Litespeed Appalachian 51 cm with lots of upgrades. The frame was purchased from a teammate of mine who used it infrequently. I have used this bike as my pit bike for the past 3 seasons. Last fall I upgraded the entire drivetrain and fork. The frame is butted ti with rack/fender mounts on the rear triangle. A few scratches to the decals but no dents or dings. The dimensions are 49cm c-c seat tube and 52 cm c-c top tube. 73.5 degree seat tube angle and a 77.5 cm standover height. Listed frame weight is 3.3 pounds. The fork is an Easton EC90 CX for with the decals removed. The wheels are a custom build, Hope pro hubs laced to Mavic CXP33 rims with butted spokes and alloy nipples (32h 3x laced). The drive train is SRAM Rival shifters and derailleurs with a Ritchey WCS crank (currently I have 50x34 rings, but will include a 46t Sugino outer ring) Ritchey 10.5cm wcs stem, bars, and seat post. Avid shorty 6 brakes.
Selle Flight saddle. Cane Creek s3 headset and no pedals. The tires are Vittoria XG 32's and are a bit worn. (for an extra $50 I will include a pair of almost new Maxxix Mimo Larson tires) With race tubular wheels and light pedals, I've weighed this bike at 17.5 lbs.

Asking $2100 obo. A Litespeed Appalachian frame/fork ONLY just went for $925 on Ebay, so with the upgraded fork, drivetrain, and custom wheels, I think is priced appropriately. With a fork for full fenders/racks this could make a good touring bike as well. Pictures will be available Sunday upon request. Its a great bike, just need to make room in the barn.

Willing to ship or meet at a weekend race. I will list this bike on Ebay on Sunday April 5th if I get no firm offers.

Also for sale, one pair of Dugast Rhino 34's. Raced on twice. TireAlert Re-tubed one due to a slow leak after mounting it up the first time. Sidewalls are treated with Aqual Seal. Glue on the base tape and some on the sidewalls from mounting. Asking $140 for the pair."
