    Description

    55cm Litespeed Titanium Natchez
    3/2.5 Frameset with two threadless 1" forks, a Kestrel carbon fiber and a Rivendell steel. (No Components!)
    This is a classic Litespeed road frame with lovely radial seat stays.  It handles beautifully with the ride titanium is known for.  It was my main bicycle frame for many years.  It accepts a 1" threadless headset, rim brakes and 700c tires up to 28mm wide when using the steel, Rivendell front fork.  When new, the frame would have been spec'd out with either an Kinesis aluminum fork or a choice between Kestrel, Litespeed, and Time Equippe carbon forks.  The included Kestrel fork is period correct.
