Hi, I'm 5ft 9 and it fits me...size of frame I'm not exactly sure but around a 54 I think. I ride a smaller frame in older bikes since the stem and bars are that much bigger than more modern bikes. But to be honest, this bike was bought just for its appearance as its been on my wall. They are...

Hi, For sale is my US Postal 5500. It is an original 1999 bike in the famous red white and blue. The blue is a fabulous metallic. It has the original Campagnolo Record Titanium groupset on it, and the original Look pedals. It was previously owned from new by an ex French Pro and national rider...
