My LeMond is on Ebay right now. I am selling it so I can put record parts on my Pinarello.

Right before I bid it adieu. 
Went in a box to a new owner soon afterward. Got what I almost paid for it new.
Great bike, but I really should have gotten a 59cm instead of a 61cm coz of my short torso even though I'm 6'2" . Lesson learned

I kind of made it work with a 90mm stem but it made handling a little less stable with the short stem IMO. I was new to cycling at the time and didn't know any better. My new bike is a 58cm (57.5cm TT)with a 110mm stem and I like the feeling of a smaller bike - you can throw it around a little easier, especially when cornering.
The lanky Miguel Indurain used a 59x59 Pinarello BTW and he easily could have used a 61 or 62 but he didn't. Hell, Cippo is even taller at 6'4" and used a 58cm, albeit with a 150mm stem!

I forgot to add that a minor inconvenience of having too big of a bike is that when you try to clamp it on a repair stand, you hardly have enough seatpost to work with!

At the start of last year when it first saw my garage.
I need to get a new one of the bike this year but there are some new parts to go no before that happens.
Just a sinple mock up

I just recently finished this build product after spotting the frame on Ebay and getting it for a steal this summer. Now the goal is to lose as many ounces in fact as I spent in dollars to put this together (which should add up to somewhere in the neighborhood of 50lbs.)
Why oh why did I stay off a bike for so long? It's good to be back!

P.S., I like where you put the brakes. I'm going to do that (copy that) for my BA (mine are too far forward). I was thinking about that just today and bought some electrical tape on the way home from a ride.

I'm thinking about your red handlebar tape as well, not too bright like the frame logo. But closer to my saddle color. Just trying to add a different shade to the bike. By the way, that Token carbon kevlar
saddle is awesome!!! So clean and hot looking that I don't want to sit on it. Although it looks skiny
and shallow, it rides very comfortable, no kidding.

Hey Bankman, that black Lemond with gold is REAL sweet. I've never seen that color combination before. What year and model is that? That is NICE!!!
And it looks like it'd fit me.
