The Centurion Dave scott signature is certainly a great option for long hours on the saddle; but my average rides are now in the 2 hours range and almost never beyond 3 hours, therefore I prefer the responsiveness (and aesthetics, albeit weird) of the later 650c designs

I disagree: certain 10 y/o design are not "retro" by any means, but cannot be brought into the T1 Transition Area without raising a laugh

Canadian triathlon stars Peter Reid and Lori Bowden in their glory days (late 90's early 2000's) rode mostly on M4's, but I struggle to consider them as "vintage triathlon". For me, the benchmark between "vintage" and "modern" is the move from 650c to 700c wheels size

Old triathlon bike junkie is back! Here's my latest build, 1998 CAAD3 Multsport (650c wheels, of course) with SRAM Force drive train, Ultegra cranks and Velocity wheels

this one should be one of their last steel models, possibly called "zero gravity"; I think they discontinued steel frames by 1996. will you install a road cockpit?

Do you mean "tire width"? You can use 25mm's, but there are no great options: kenda kontender's and panaracer pasela's. My go-to tires are Schwalbe One's, only available in 23mm's. But I have also Vittoria Rubino's and Continental Gatorskin's, all in 23mm's

Excellent transaction, even from abroad! 👍

sent you a PM :)

Available?

ritchey back then provided scott frame tubes and other bits (drop outs, headsets, seatposts etc.); I wouldn't be surprised if they also provided complete frames in the very early days

double downtube bottle cage and tange prestige sticker would suggest it's a ritchey supercomp with a different fork

Do you have an idea about the supplier for the Lite Flite CrMo steel tubings that were used for the top end frames by mid 90's, replacing the Ritchey Logic Prestiges, previously used? Thanks!

yes, it's like to be young again when riding them. just remember not to look at average speed ;)

Mine has 700c wheels, and I'm not even sure it hasn't been sold; I'll have to ask my dad, who lives some 200 miles from here

I had this one (CAAD5 Multisport; 700C); actually it should be still in my dad's garage
