Giant TCR Advanced ISP SL Road Bike + Upgrades.....Hot!	Can't Post

Well, I ended up with two bikes and can only afford to keep one, so this one has to go. It is like new/mint condition with ~ 80 km on it.
It is a size Medium Giant TCR Advanced SL ISP.

The ISP was cut for me, but with the included spacer kit, you can achieve a max saddle height (measured from center of BB to top of saddle, along the seat tube) of about 76cm, which should be more than enough for anyone considering a size medium.

Retail on this bike is about 6500 US + tax. I've also done the following upgrades which were quite pricey:

1. Bike came stock with DA7900, I went with SRAM Red (DA7800 cassette and chain though, works better).
2. Came with somewhat generic stem/bars, I upgraded to Ritchey WCS 'wet' stem and Ritchey carbon Evolution SL bars (light!).
3. Replaced stock saddle with Arione k:1 carbon ($400).
4. Replaced stock alloy wheels with Easton EC90 SLX carbon shallow wheels with Conti Sprinters glued (1200 grams, $1300).

As pictured (including pedals and bar tape installed after pic was taken), bike weighs 14.15 pounds.

Pedals in pic are not included. Best reasonable offer before it has to hit ebay...

I am trying to figure out if the bike will fit me. I'm 5 5 1/2 and ride an Argon18 S - with a standover height of 29.8 and distance between seat post and handlebars 53.5. I wonder if a seat adjustment would make up for the 2cm increase in length. Any thoughts? Thanks!

To be honest, I think you'd be better off on a small. The saddle height as pictured is 74cm, and the stem is 110. I'm happy to sell to you, but you'll want to be sure you can make it work,

I'd also be willing to sell the frame/fork on its own for the right offer!
