Sale Pending! Brand New 55cm Quintana Roo Tiphoon
Quote | Reply
This bike is brand new! I bought it from a local shop who needed to get rid of it, thinking it was the right size. I went for one test ride on it and it ended up being about 2 sizes too small!

This is a one-of-a-kind Ti-Phoon. It has a custom paint job (done by quintana roo) to match the 2008 Lucero Ti. It looks sweet! It's super stiff, very light (frame and fork is around 3lbs), and has no scratches!

Right now, R&A Cycles has this bike (without the custom paint job and an '05) on sale for $5795 for complete bike with ultegra. And the frameset for $2995!

This is what R&A has to say about it:
  • The Tiphoon's incredible ride quality and its unmatched stiffness-to-weight characteristics are made possible by the perfect combination of the cold-worked, 6Al/4V and 3Al/2.5V tubeset.
  • Minimal drag is achieved through the sophisticated wing-shaped aero tubes, the sleek internal cable routing, and the clever rear-entry dropout which allows you to tuck the rear wheel in tight to the seat tube (700c only).
  • System integration of our new carbon aero seatpost and Real Design Aero HP fork maximizes the aero performance of the new Tiphoon and reflects our commitment to the overall performance of the bike.
  • Out of the box, the Tiphoon is race-ready with the perfect compliment of components.







**Would like to sell without wheels, but if you need some i have some training wheels. I have some Mavic Ksyrium Equipe's, Mavic Open Pro's with Ti spokes, or some bontrager select aero's.

Option 1: First of all...I'd preferably like to sell as a frameset (frame, fork, seatpost)...

I need this to go ASAP because I have multiple races coming, have no bike, and need the money to get one!

You might want to list the size; given that it was the wrong size for you, you don't want the next buyer to make the same mistake...

What is your height? Inseam? How much are you trying to get for the bike?

I am 6'2" with a 34 inch inseam

The reason I couldn't make it work is because my position isn't very aggressive and there was too much drop because I had the saddle so high, even with all the spacers and 2cm under the aerobar pads.

I'd take $2300 plus shipping for the complete bike (but would really like to sell without wheels!)
