Item: 2012 Vitus Chrono carbon Tri / Road bike
Location: Newcastle
Item Condition: As new.
Reason for selling: Cervelo!
Price and price conditions: $1000
Extra Info:See below
Pictures: Yep
For sale is my carbon frame, fork, wheels, brakes, crankset.
I bought a Cervelo RS frame as this one is a bit too aggressive for my needs. It's damn fast and stiff though. It's a great frame to use as both a Tri bike and road bike as it's not as ridiculously low as some tri bikes. You can achieve standard road geometry with a flipped stem and setback seatpost.
You would need bars (either tri bars or drops, depending on preference), derailleurs and shifters. You also need a long bolt for the rear brake ($10 on ebay). The bolts are both short, which is fine for some bikes, but this frame needs one short and one long.
The components are:
56cm Carbon frame. Suit between 5'10" and 6'2".
A-class Deep 50mm aero wheels. Conti GP4000 tyres (basically new).
Shimano 105 5700 53/39 crankset
Shimano 105 5700 brakes
Shimano 105 5700 11-25t 10-Speed cassette.
So basically, for less than $1500 total, you can build up an excellent full carbon road bike. It builds up as an 8kg bike.
The pic below was when it was built up as a road bike, and the link underneath is how it looks as a tri bike.
