Litespeed Vortex for sale, looking to sell frameset only but would consider offers for the fully- or partially-built bike.
It’s a custom-made 2006 frame using the traditional (i.e. horizontal tob-tube) geometry, not the compact geometry. Seat tube measures 59cm from BB to where it meets the top-tube which makes it approximately equivalent to the 57cm frame. I can provide exact measurements but the top tube is slightly shorter than the standard geometry, and the head tube is slightly longer. I’m no expert on fit but believe the frame would therefore suit somebody tall with long legs and a relatively shorter torso.
Reason for sale is that I bought this off eBay and got the sizing a bit wrong and I can’t get a good enough fit to justify keeping a bike of this quality. The bike has hardly been ridden and is in mint condition.
Looking for offers in the region of £800 for the frame, forks and Chris King headset. Believe this is reasonable but if you think I’m way off then all offers will be considered. I’m looking to put the frame on eBay once I get a chance to properly measure it up and strip it back down for photos, but thought I’d offer it here first.
If you are interested in the fully-built bike then components are:
- Shimano DA derailleurs and shifters (10-speed)
- Ultegra brakes and cassette (12-27)
- Truvativ Rouleur carbon crankset (53-39)
- Reynolds Alta Race wheels
- 3T Forgie bars
- 110mm ITM stem
I live in Southwest London, please PM me for photos, to arrange viewings, make an offer, etc
Cheers
Simon
