Subject: Kestrel 2011 Airfoil Pro SL, 56cm - $ 2011 Kestrel Airfoil Pro SL, 56cm, Yellow  I love this thing. My first real bike - unfortunately, I did not do my due diligence in researching it, and instead bought it because I got it at a great deal. As such, it's not sized ideally for me (long and low). I bought it June 2011 from High Road Cycles in Wayne, PA. It has since been taken care of professionally by Breakaway Bikes in Philadelphia, PA. Richie and Max are two of the most knowledgeable people I've ever talked to.  It rides like a dream. The lack of seat post gives it some flex, which is great for riding on rough rodes, as not every pebble is shot through the saddle into your groin. I'm sad to see it go, but with a new bike here, I have no real reason to keep it around. The wheels it comes with are deep enough that they can be a solid set of training and racing wheels. It's a great bike for venturing into triathlon!  I raced it for ~one season:  2011 Philly Tri Sprint  2011 Poconos 70.3  2012 HITS Naples Sprint  2012 Florida 70.3  2012 Philly Tri Sprint  2012 Philly Tri Olympic  2012 Timberman 70.3  I did a lot of my winter riding/trainer riding without a computer, so unfortunately I don't have a mileage to put on it. However, I do now have a Garmin Speed & Cadence Sensor on it, and that comes with the bike.  Stack: 521mm  Reach: 431mm  Specs:  Component Group: Shimano Ultegra  Brakeset: Oval R700 brakes, Oval A900 carbon levers  Shift Levers: Shimano Dura Ace Bar end  Front Derailleur: Shimano Ultegra  Rear Derailleur: Shimano Ultegra  Crankset: Shimano Ultegra, 39/53 teeth, 172.5mm  Bottom Bracket: Shimano Ultegra  Seatpost: Kestrel EMS Pro w/Ritchey Clamp system  Saddle: (not stock) Specialized Romin 130  Handlebar: Oval R901 Carbon  Handlebar Stem: (not stock): Bontanger 90mm, 25 degrees  Wheels: Oval W745 carbon/alloy clincher  Tires: 700 x 23c Vittoria Rubino Pro II  Asking: $1800 shipping included.
