For Sale: Blue RC4 Road Bike (small)

[kat_h]

Somewhere where measurements are taken from "centre".

Yet the email address is for Texas Tech University. A Canuck stuck in 'Merica maybe?

I can vouch that that's a pretty good price for that bike if it is as meticulous as she says. I paid that for my RC4 last season. It was a slightly used frame with brand new Shimano 105 parts except for Ultegra level crankset and shifters and an aluminum handlebar (not carbon like hers). I absolutely adore my bike... I'd love for it to have a twin in the TE community.

See http://rideblue.com/bikearchive.php?state=rc4 for geometry and http://www.cyclingnews.com/tech.php?...views/blue_rc4 and http://www.emerys.com/BLUErc4.htm for reviews. See the link in my sig for pics of mine.

I just googled Nicole Gilinsky... She seems very involved in cycling and served as team support for an elite women's team that raced on RC4's in '06.

Yes, I do live in Texas but am originally from Canada - hence the spelling of centre - I often make that mistake! I had the pleasure of traveling around to some races with Team Biovail. I helped with writing race reports and website updates and managed to get some good training in as well.
The Blue was a pleasure to ride and now has the new components from a bike I recently purchased. I am going to attempt to attach some photos.

It's an absolutely gorgeous bike, at what sounds like a great price. If you were closer to me, I would drive over for a test. But, I don't feel experienced enough yet, or dialed in enough, to buy a bike long distance.

Seems like a sweet deal on a nice bike, though.

Thank you. It is a pretty easy bike to get set up and comfortable on but I understand being hesitant about a long distance purchase.

It's not a mistake.

I had never heard of this bike till I noticed there are many TE'ers who have them. Seems like a great bike.

The bike looks great, and is totally my bike's twin. Even the same size! I hope the geometry works for someone here, cause it's a great ride.

Welcome to the forums.

Thank you!! I still spell color colour and honour honor, will never be able to change that!!

If I were looking for a new bike, I'd grab this one! That's a great price esp for all new components. Good luck selling it!

[nicole]

Thanks, I would love to see it go to a good home. I was considering listing on ebay... my boyfriend just sold his on ebay and the buyer promptly turned around and stripped the bike down to all its parts and sold it scrap by scrap. It was sad to see his first road bike in pieces like that.
