Absolutly stunning Karma Carbon 1.618 road bicycle. Full Carbon frame and fork made with high modulus Carbon Fiber. I bought this frame and fork in '07, raced it in about 15 races and trained minimally. I train on an aluminum bike with lower grade parts, and NEVER ride this bike in the rain. I maintain all my bikes to the highest degree, and have a reputation for being over the top with maintenance. What can I say, I love bikes. I have sold 5 of my bikes on ebay and have always gotten buyers thrilled with their purchase. I have owned Trek carbon, Giant Carbon (x2), Cannondale Aluminum (x2). This bike has been carefully built with the highest level of components. It has a brand new fsa carbon threadless headset ( I took the old one to put on my new bike because I didn't have the patience to wait a week for the headset to build it!) FSA aluminum os 115 120mm stem, FSA Carbon k wing handlebar 44cm a really comfortable yet stiff bar, by far my favourite ever. Brand new Edge composites full carbon saddle, brand New Ritchey wcs aluminum 31.6mm seat post. Salsa lip off seat binder. Campagnolo Record skeleton Brakes with Swiss Stop carbon/aluminum pads. these brakes are super light, look fantastic and the pads are the highest rated in magazines reviews and also the best I've ever ridden. If you want dura ace calipers also with swiss stop yellow pads, INSTEAD I will be more than happy to swap them out. I have noticed no drawback between the quick release mechanism on the record pads v's the dura ace for wheel changes. The record brakes are almost new. The wheels are American Classic 420 deep dish aluminum, with upgraded ceramic enduro bearings in the rear wheel and the standard bearings up front (the front ceramics didn't roll as smooth as the originals, so I made a judgement call and swapped them back out. Both wheels are light and very fast. Dura ace 10 speed shifters also newer, Dura ace rear derailleur newer. (I replaced the original Dura Ace parts with newer dura ace and record when I upgraded my wifes bike to dura ace from ultegra and put new parts on mine) Fsa Carbon SLK crankset, 53/39 with enduro ceramic bottom bracket upgrade. This bottom bracket is so smooth and is the best upgrade I've made with a considerable difference. Dura ace front derailleur, and brand new Dura ace 10 speed chain. Please note the pedals are NOT INLUDED. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have. This bike has been babied, rides better than any I've owned to this point and I've truly enjoyed its responsiveness and stiffness as well as the forgiving ride. My bike auctions are always with no reserve and this is no exception, so bid with confidence and I know someone will end up with an awesome bike. Buyer is to pay all shipping costs, I will pack the bike myself for free but do encourage the buyer to purchase insurance for the value of the final winning bid. Thanks for looking.
