Designed for versatility and performance, this lightweight machine combines a sleek carbon frame with Shimano Ultegra components to deliver precision and durability on every ride.

Components

– Braking: Ultegra BR-6800 brakes deliver confident stopping power on any terrain.
– Wheels & Tires: Bontrager Race Lite carbon wheels paired with Vittoria Corsa Control Graphene tires (700x28C) offer low rolling resistance and excellent grip.

Condition & Value
This bike has been ridden with care—scuffs on the frame reflect its battle-tested heritage but don’t compromise performance. Wheels feature new spokes and brake pads, while the Ultegra groupset remains responsive after years of use. Originally priced at $3,200 with alloy wheels, this upgraded model now includes carbon rims for enhanced speed and aerodynamics.

Why Choose This Bike?
