Thread: WTB: 60-63cm Road Bike

Getting into triathlons and want to buy a road bike. Looking to spend between 500 and 800 bucks on one. Looking for something newish (within the last 2-3 years) with 105 components. 60-63cm. Aluminum with carbon fork. Trek, Cannondale, Specialized, Felt, etc.

I'm located in CT, so something in New England is preferable, but I don't mind paying boxing and shipping for the right bike. Let me know what you got/what you find.

Thanks

$500-$800?

I'd plan to spend a little more to get a 2 year old bike with 105...

I got a brand new bike off of ebay for that a couple of years ago. Have bikes go up that much?

I spent a lot of time searching ebay and craigslist last summer before I picked up a new Cannondal at a local shop for $1200 with Tiagra components.

Fit is really important on a road bike, always at least ride it before buying, preferably have it professionally fit. If you know something fits and you see it on ebay, snag it.

I've got a 60cm 2005 Cannondale R1000 that gets ridden so little I should probably part with it. Very low miles, never crashed, basically mint. I'd want to see $800 for sure.

Looks just like this with the exception of Vittoria Diamonte Pros and a Stelle Italia saddle.

Shoot me a PM if you are interested.

How about a 2009 Trek Madone 4.5, size 62? Would need more $ for it, but you won't have to upgrade a thing. Mix of 105 and Ultegra,Carbon Frame. I upgraded the brake calipers to 6600 Ultegra. Has a compact 105 crank but have a standard 175mm Ultegra crankset too. PM me if you can spend more.

Was able to score a 2004 Felt F60 off Craigslist for 500 bucks. Thanks anyways guys.
