Trek 2.5 Alpha Road Bike 56CM: upgrades + awesome wheelset!
This Trek 2.5 Alpha Road Bike Racer Alloy M/L 56CM in excellent condition, with a whole bunch of upgrades, at a great price - DETAILS BELOW! The bike has always been stored indoors. Reason for selling: turns out I am just not into cycling all that much... I bought this bike last year from a guy who was REALLY into cycling. He worked at Cyclesurgery, raced at a high level, and sold this bike to me in its present configuration because he was upgrading to a carbon bike. I use it to train (for a month) and complete the London Triathlon in August , and pretty much never since. Turns out I really don't like cycling... The bike was bought in excellent condition, saw very light use and good care by me over a year. Before that it saw regular use, but professional care by an eager beaver bicycle mechanic. It is now ready for a new owner. It has never been crashed, the frame is in perfect condition, with no bends or cracks.
