Small Litespeed Tachyon titanium Dura Ace

My 5 ft tall daughter doesn't want to be a cyclist. Too bad. This is a really nice bike. Mid-90's Litespeed Tachyon titanium tri bike. Looks to be original except for the bars and ugly stem. All Dura Ace components including hubs. The stem is a Dimension. The catalogs show 49cm as the smallest frame. This measures 46cm c-t-t and a little more than 49 cm to from the center of the bottom bracket to the top of the seat tube that extends above the top tube. Wheels are 650c. Chainrings are 54-42 (big ring is a Specialized). 8 speed cassette

Complete bike $600 plus shipping

Frame, bb and headset $300 plus shipping

Or... trade the frame for?

Bump - still available and just sitting in the shop. Wish I could ride it but... alas, it's too small.

Ya can't help everyone. I tried convincing my wife to try cycling for years, but it never panned out. Too bad, as I like some of these old Litespeeds.

Hey buddiiee , I know you wanted steel but you also wanted a pure race bike. This is a sweet deal.

Hey Scozim! If this is still available I'm interested! Tough finding frames for smaller riders. I've been a lurker too long and can't PM you, would it work if you PM me? Sorry for any hassle. Hope you're having a nice weekend!

If it only had a steel or Ti fork... I'd be on it.

Hey well good to hear from you, no worries about the delay. Hm! I'm not seeing an email; you can email me at mbeachal@gmail.com (I'm going to edit this post to remove me email once I hear from you). Hope your holidays are shaping up nicely!

Not many ti folks out there. They tend to be too flexy. The vast majority of ti bikes have CF forks, as the ride quality of both compliment each other.
