The legendary rare bike “ZIPP 2001”
\nMost examples have been painted over, and since the carbon is made of fiber, stripping it is difficult.
\nA carbon bare frame is extremely precious.
\nI’m not selling it, but while organizing, here’s my daydream for the future
 
\n
 
The brakes are front and rear “ZIPP genuine carbon cover brakes.”
\nThey’re not light at all, and the installation is just for looks\u2014easy design with elongated holes.
\nThe wheels are “MAVIC IO 700C.”
\nThe fork is “LOTUS 110″\u2014I just had a spare lying around, so I reused it
 
\n
 
The rear wheel might be lighter than the GHIBLI?
\n“USSR-made Kevlar disk wheel.”
\nThe wood-grain look is cool, but the freewheel hub is a drawback
 
\n
 
By the way, the frame is 650-sized, and I forget what the beam is.
\nI think I might like the 650-sized frame because it’s small, thick, and has that snug “squeeze!” feeling.
\nWhat about the handlebars?
\nWhat about the crankset?
\nWhat about the shifters?
\nWhat about the pedals?
\nWhat about the seat?
\nAnd that’s when I get fed up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
