I love this bike, but my 2 bedroom condo is getting too crowded, and I must part with it. It has been a great friend, and a fast friend! (This is a racing bike!)

Fort frame, (made in the Czech Republic), 60 cm. Aluminium, POWDER COATED frame, (good luck finding a scratch on it! IT'S BEAUTIFUL! Powder coat is extremely protective)

For info on this brand of bike, visit their website:
http://www.fortframes.com


Specs:
Wheels - 2002 Shimano Dura Ace, (rear wheel recently rebuilt)
Front Der - Dura Ace
Rear Der - 9 spd Dura Ace
Rear Cassette - 9 spd Dura Ace
Crank Set - Dura Ace
Brakes - 105
Bottom Bracket - Ultegra
Shifters - Ultegra STI
Seat Post - Thompson Elite
Saddle - Fizik Pave
Stem - Salsa
Headset - FSA
Fork - Winwood full carbon fork and carbon steer tube
Chain - brand new, never ridden, Ultegra

$900 firm, but I will pay for the shipping in the continental US. If you're looking for a deal on a great used bike, you won't find a better bike for the price! All the parts alone are worth more than what I'm asking.

That is one heck of a nice bike with great components for a very good price. It is even in favourite colour ... unfortunately it is just a tad too tall for me!?! :-(

Oh man I wish I lived closer to SD than I do. Would be nice to test drive and get a nice early holiday present...

Which model Fort frame does this have?


The bike is the RO Zonal frame, made from Columbus Zonal tubing....Fast and smooth.

Hey Jim, How tall are you and how does the bike fit. I'm in the market for a new road bike, but 60 may be a bit big. I'm 6'1" with a 33" in seem. Let me know.

Good question...I am 6'2", with a 34" inseam. If you look at the picture, you can see how high I have the saddle. So to lower it an inch would not be a problem at all. The bike fit has been great for me, quite comfortable. It's actually a 59 cm top tube, center to center, with a 59cm seat tube, center to center. I think Fort may measure them not from center to center. You can also do a small adjustment with a stem change.

I hope this helps. Let me know if there is more info you need.

Yes, this bike would work well for you. I am 6'2" and you can see where I place the height of the seatpost. Let me know what you think. You can private message me.
