[youtube][/youtube]Lemond Zurich 853, Kinesis SL carbon forks, 51cm c to top, ovalised main tubes. Includes Cane Creek S6 headset and Lemond seat pin and Easton EA70 super light stem. The original owner informs me this was part of a Scotland team bike commission for a previous Commonwealth games squad. The finish is all decor painted, the Saltires are not decals. Would make an excellent sub 17lb build for a smaller rider or a superlative women's bike. Genuine ex team frame built to very exacting standards and finishing.
NB: The majority of modern 853 frames (Genesis ect) use heavier 725 tubing for the rear triangle, as opposed to full 8 tube 853 on the Lemond. This can mean a 250gr - - 300 gr weight penalty, pretty much negating the benefits of a lightweight frameset.
£320 Price Reduced: £300
The Lemond is under 1400gr. That's a 150gr shy of a full carbon Giant Defy!!
