1985 Ritchey Ascent-Commuter Bike
This bike was gifted to me after being taken out of commuter service. Daily rider for most of its' life by the original owner. He was told it was unsafe to ride, so he bought a Colnago C60.....
Had Shimano Deerhead (62XX) drivetrain, Suntour Accushift thumbies, original bars-forget what they are called, with the integral stem, Suntour brakes, Chris King headset, perfect cables and chain.
Parts are in my inventory now. Frame is available for FREE!!! If you pick it up or pay for shipping. 18" seat post 22" top tube.

It's an invisible bike. @9volt will be surprised when it shows up on this doorstep!
