This one is an 18.5" (46,5cm) frame and weighs only 912g, as seen in the picture.   When ordering these frames from the manufacturer there is normally a waiting time of up to 8 months between order and delivery!   This frame is for disk brakes only. Road race bike front derailleurs are the most suitable as the seat tube already has "braze-on" type mounting points integrated into it. The derailleur must be of the down-pull type i.e. the cable must come from below.   The frame was used to build a bike that was ridden for around 500 km. Originally, it was used with V-brakes. This year it was converted to use disk brakes but since then has not been ridden. As a V-brake version the frame weighed 873g.   The weight of the rider must not exceed 80 kg.   The maximum diameter of the seat post is 31.6 mm, smaller diameters are possible using adapter sleeves.   The brake hoses are fixed into the mounts provided using cable ties. The length of the chain stay is 425mm. The head tube is designed to use standard headsets.   The maximum tire width is 2.0". The Race King 2.0", Twister Supersonic 1.9", Tufo Tubular XC2, as well as all other lightweight tires such as Maxxis Maxxlite, Flyweight and Schwalbe Furious Fred will fit in the frame with no problems. In my opinion, wide tires are not really appropriate with a frame like this anyway.   The top tube is 585mm long, measured horizontally.   The frame has a remaining one year of guarantee from the manufacturer.   If you have any questions, or want any further information, just send me a mail – I'll be happy to help you.   If you would like to make an offer for the complete bike, please do so.    The RRP of the frame from the manufacturer is €5,890 or US$7,500.00 and the delivery time is enormously long. So if it is the right size for you, then this is an opportunity not to be missed!   Due to the high value of the frame it will only be sent with a suitably high transport insurance. Collection is, of course, also possible.   I would also swap the frame or the complete bike, as listed, for a new or good condition frame+fork set Cannondale Scalpel 2008 Carbon 1/2 or Team with a Lefty Carbon SL and SI crank set, or for a complete Scalpel Ultimate, with a value adjustment in cash. In the case of a swap we would each pay the transport costs ourselves!     Or you can buy the bike complitly with followings parts, please look at the list:   configuration / bike-parts condition Frame Bitmap Spin epo Disc used Fork Bitmap RockShox SID "RACE" ´09 white new or       Fork Bitmap RockShox SID "RACE" ´09 black 250-300 miles Forktuning Bitmap CFK Airdamper + PureDelite new Rims Bitmap Bitmap Bitmap FRM XMD333 32° white new Hubs FRM PRO-Disc 32° new Spokes Bitmap DT SWISS Aerolite new Quick Release   FRM MTB "TEAM" titan new Tire front Bitmap CONTI RaceKing Worldcup LTD. 26x2.2 new Tire rear Bitmap CONTI RaceKing supersonic 26x2.0 new Tubes   FRM Tubeless-Kit new Crankarms Bitmap Bitmap FRM integral 27/42 black chainrings new Chainrings   FRM 27/42, 2-speed new Chain Bitmap KCNC X10SL new Cassette Bitmap Shimano XTR "970" 11-32 new Bottom Braket Bitmap FRM new Front Derlr Bitmap Sram RED braze on new Rear Derlr Bitmap SRAM X-0, long, 20th, carbon cage new Shifters Bitmap SRAM X-0 Gripshift new Handlebar Bitmap Schmolke Carbon SL 580mm new Grips   Shogung, cut for GripShift new Barends   Tune white-Edition new Stem Bitmap Syntace F99 120mm white powder coating new Headset Bitmap Extralite The Scalehead used 100miles Brakes Bitmap Avid Juicy Ultimate white-edition 160/140 new Brake Levers Bitmap Avid Juicy Ultimate white-edition  new Cables   Nokon white-edition w Ilink-liner new Seat Bitmap FRM Black Hole white Alcantara Leather new Seatpost Bitmap Schmolke Carbon TLO 31.6x315mm new Seat Binder   B-T-P Carbon 34.9mm new Color Bitmap black/white   Size Bitmap M / 18.5" / 48cm     Please make an offer for the complete bike!  The shipping costs for the complete bike to the usa 90.00 US$, please ask for other countries!
