Some of you may remember my attempt to make this bicycle fit me last year, by posting about saddles and stems. It is time to admit that this bike doesn't fit me!
I'm about 5' 8" and should really have a 54cm bike--the reach is just too far.
I purchased this bike new in 2004 at wholesale pricing because of the dent on the toptube and acompanying scratch. It is made of scandium, has a carbon fork and rear triangle, and was custom built. I'll have pictures for
those interested. Here is salsa's website with their current Campeon model: http://www.salsacycles.com/frames_06Campeon.html#
In a nutshell, it is a triple crank road bike w/ clamp-on aero bars, mostly with Ultegra components with a few 105 items thrown in. It includes a Terry
Butterfly saddle (women's specific), Cateye OS1.1 computer (it isplays "good morning" to you), and Ultegra pedals.
If you have any questions, would like to see photos quicker than I post them, or happen to live in the Minneapolis area and would like to see it in person, reply to this post or send me a private message.
Thanks for reading!
