Hi OBRA land,

I've almost liquidated my ex-Time Trial bike, but there's still some
parts left over that are also on Craigslist. This stuff has been
going fast, so respond to this ad if you're interested asap.

Here's what's still available:

HED Standard Disc rear wheel:
It does have a *minor* dent/crack about 0.75cm long (pic at bottom of
page, compared to a guitar pick), from being stacked with other wheels
in the trunk, probably from a quick release. However, my mechanic said
it wouldn't affect the safety of the wheel, because these things are
basically bomb-proof. However, it could be patched by HED if you felt
so inclined.
This wheel also has a Shimano free-hub body, and currently has a
Shimano Ultegra 9 speed 12-21 cassette on it. It can take 8, 9 and 10
speed cassettes. The wheel also has a Tufo S-3 Lite 21mm tubular tire
glued on to it, never ridden. I will also include a nylon wheel bag.

I talked to a HED representative who said this wheel could also be
converted for track use, ie. in to a fixed gear. It is a simple
conversion they do in house, so if you are looking for a track disc
for cheap, this could be a good wheel for you.

$375... or $350 without the cassette. Or best reasonable offer.

Zipp 440 front wheel:

I bought the wheel a couple years ago from a guy who had barely ridden
it. It was perfectly round and true then, and is perfectly round and
true now. The bearings are in excellent condition.
This Zipp 440 carbon rim is 60mm deep, the wheel has a carbon and
aluminum hub, and has bladed stainless steel spokes. It also has a
Tufo S-3 Lite 21mm tubular tire glued on, which is brand new. I will
also include a nylon wheel bag.

$250 or best reasonable offer.

**********

FSA SLK carbon cranks:

175mm, 53x39 chainrings, 9speed but can be used with 8 or 10 without
trouble. Comes with the FSA Mega-Exo bottom bracket
These are basically brand new. I only rode them during my bike fit,
and twice on the trainer for recovery spins.

$250 or best reasonable offer.

**********

FSA Vision Time Trial handlebar combo:

The aero extensions have been cut down to a total length of 30cm, or
26cm from the center of the elbow pads to the tip of the extensions.
The base bar is 42cm width. Both are constructed of aluminum. The base
bars are the stiffest bars I have ever used. They would look pretty
sweet on your fixie, too.

As a complete set up, I will sell the combo for $80 or best reasonable
offer.

The base bar alone I will sell for $60 or best reasonable offer.

The aero extensions I will sell for $30 or best reasonable offer.

**********

Shimano Dura-Ace 9-speed bar end shifters:

Basically brand new. Never used other than in set up by the mechanic,
my bike fit, and two rides on the trainer for recovery spins.

$60 or best reasonable offer.

**********

Cane Creek 200 TT aluminum aero brake levers:

These are the reverse-pull type you mount on bullhorn bars/TT bars,
like the ones above.

$30 or best reasonable offer.

**********

OK, I can't post the pictures of all this stuff (other than the disc)
on OBRA, because the files are too large. You folks all know what
this stuff looks like anyhow. If you want more pictures, go to
Craigslist.

Cash only, local "in person" sales please.

Thanks!
