This is a very special bike. When I bought this bike, I spent almost $2000 on it. I didn't want to race, I only wanted an exotic bike that would go fast. This one does, but is a great lightweight touring bike too. The bike is a Suntour lightweight but very strong steel frame (most people don't know the famed Suntour racing company that is known for high tech racing parts for bicycles actually built some very special bike frames too), with Shimano racing gears, and Mod Grand Prix handlebars (Italy), with shoe lock peddles an through the frame cables. (I have the chain off the sproket which explains the lack of tension on the drive chain.) The third photograph shows the Suntour hallmark on the rear fork of the frame. The standover height is 31 inches and it ha a custom lime green color.. While the technology of racing bikes has changed a little, since I purchased this bike, if you are looking for a bike that has some of the best qualities of exotic racing machines is easy to ride, fast and beautiful, in great condition, (stored inside), you should look at this one. I have it priced at a bargain $275 or best offer, as this great bike should be ridden and appreciated.
