This frame hasn't sold yet, so if someone is interested in trading a 54 or 55cm
frame/fork for it I am willing to consider that. It can also be had for $125 if
someone wants to buy it. It is much too big for me, but would be a really nice
bike for a taller rider.
Pics available on request.
Thanks,

=================
This is a 2001 Schwinn Super Sport GLX frame with carbon fiber fork, plus a
bottom bracket, headset, stem, and seatpost. This bike is not new, but you would
be hard pressed to tell the difference.
This frame, fork, and components are in excellent condition. The frame was
bought new as a complete bike and used for one ride of under 50 miles before
being stored indoors since 2001.
The size is XL and has a pretty extreme slope to it. The seat tube measures 47cm
c-c and 52cm center to top of the seat tube, but remember this is a sloping or
compact geometry so with the long seat post and sloping top tube this frame is
suitable for much taller riders than the 47cm and 52cm measurements would lead
you to believe. The actual top tube length is 56cm, but again remember it will
have a longer virtual top tube length due to the sloping geometry.
The frame is a very pretty bright blue metallic with white Schwinn panel and
black lettering. The frame is made of 7005 Aluminum alloy, double-butted, and
TIG welded. The fork is a 1" threaded Kinesis with carbon fiber blades. The
seatpost is an extra-long type that provides up to 12" of extension above the
top of the seatpost collar. The stem is an open-front two bolt type with a 120mm
extension. Two sets of water bottle mounts, pump peg, braze-on downtube shifter
bosses, and a replaceable rear derailleur hanger. A Shimano bottom bracket that
fits Shimano Octalink cranks is included also. 130mm rear spacing and standard
100mm front fork spacing.
There are a few scratches on the bike from where it was built and a couple of
very small marks from storage, but they are very small and few. This is a very
clean and very nice frame, fork, and components. To see a built up model go to :
