Very clean circa 2007 Litespeed Tuscany assembled by Rouring Mouse Cyclery in San Francisco, and lovingly maintained by Chris Robinson at Robinson Wheelworks in the east bay. Lots of new parts just added, but never used. I just put this crank on used, and it was a big upgrade over what I had on there. Full xtr 10sp ti cassette is like new. The shifters are crisp with new-ish pods, and the whole drivetrain sings. Chris King bottom bracket has been well maintained, and comes with the grease tool. New Easton $400 carbon bar with brand new tape, you can tell it hasn’t been ridden. Tune stem. Almost brand new tires. Carbon rail tri saddle is about the most comfortable saddle you can rock besides the Fizik Nisene HP that was made in titanium, but rarely seen. I had one at one point on a mountain bike, and I’m so sorry I gave it to a friend. It was the best saddle I ever had. Thompson Masterpeice seatpost with ti bolts. Tune seatpost binder, plus I also still have the original Litespeed Titanium seatpost binder, which is a work of art. The bike is straight and true. They call it the magic carpet ride, and it’s for a good reason. The speed you can attain on this bike, and the smoothness. I have $400 ti speed play pedals that I can supply, but I figure you have your own pedals if you’re looking at this. The headset has been regularly services to prevent the bearings from sticking, which has been a problem with this bearing design, which is why they went away from the “Aero” headtube in the Tuscany and reverted to the more normal cup-style headset, rather than the inset “aero” bearings. But, it’s lubed up and cleaned, and works great. Easton Ec90 “Aero” fork in mint condition. Chorus hubs are original as is Campy Chorus remaining parts. Everything works and sounds amazing. The rear hub is truly a beautiful sound. It’s hard to replace it with a modern clanky, buzzy one. The Italians just did it better. Carbonice front derailler hanger and carbonice stem cap. DT Swiss axles. This is a mint men’s large Tuscany dripping in top-shelf parts. You do your own wheels and pedals and you’re off to the races. I’ve had Zipps on my track bike, and a set on this bike, and it practically propelled itself, but I’ve since sold those wheels, because I didn’t like the way they rode. I like more mass at the rim🤷‍♂️, it’s smooth and less twitchy, and quieter. How are you going to sneak up on anyone making such a racket?
