As for the gearing, it is a standard 53/39 with a 25 cassette. Shirt cage RD. This is enough gearing for me for what I use this bike for, however, if the buyer wants, I do have a compact silver Sram Rival crank that I could be persuaded to swap.

Thanks for the interest everyone. This really is a lovely bike. Super smooth ride and gets tons of compliments on the road.
28/30c tires would be a perfect sweet spot for a go-fast bike. I am currently working down to my Lemond being my only bike. I am surprisingly not mad about reducing my stable and it's due to how good of a bike it is! GLWS!
