For sale is a circa 2000 Litespeed Blade. Back in the days when the headtube had a "cowcatcher". 53cm should fit someone 5'10 - 5'11 ideally, although if you're 6' and like a smallish bike, or 5'9 and like a largish bike, you could probably make it work.

You can see it in page 29 of the archived catalog here: http://www.litespeed.com/...es/lscatalog2000.pdf

Mix of 3/2.5V and 6/4V titanium. Chris king headset. X-lab carbon seatpost. Performance forte road pedals.
Drivetrain: Full Dura-Ace 9 speed parts (shifters, derailleurs, brakes, crankset, possibly even the cassette and chain)
Wheels: Velocity Deep V 650c. Nice deep blue rims.
Cockpit: Syntace basebar and C2 aerobars, standard dia compe brake levers.

Bike has seen little use, and rides very well. Frameset is gonna last forever as titanium is known for.

I can only get pics after this weekend, but email / PM me if you're interested. Looking to get $1000 for it. Would make an awesome entry level bike. Just spend a little cash on some race wheels (used 650c race wheels go for much cheaper than 700c ones), and you've got more bike than you need.
