This limited edition OCLV carbon road bike commemorates the greatest comeback in sports history -- Lance Armstrong's triumphant 1999 Tour de France victory. The dynamic frame design features the red, white and blue of the USPS Pro Cycling Team, the yellow of the Tour leader's jersey, and Lance's signature.
A limited production run of 1,999 frames. Each frame is individually numbered.
The same 2.44 pound, American made OCLV carbon frame, Trek Pro Geometry and ICON Air Rail carbon fork that helped Lance and the U.S. Postal team dominate the Tour.
Rolf Vector Pro wheelset and Shimano Dura-Ace components.
I have been riding and racing Road Bikes since 1983 and I can honestly say I have never ridden anything quite like this bike. Yes, I have been riding a carbon-fiber Mt. Bike for 5 years now but I still was amazed at how this bike rides and performs. It is a 54cm frame and weighs in at 17lbs. with pedals and computer installed. The frame soaks up the road surface to give and amazingly soft ride. I thought I was on a full suspension bike at first. Then there is the stiffness of the frame in climbing. Push down on the pedals and the bike wastes little to no energy in moving forward. What a combination, soft ride and stiff bottom bracket for forward motion. The Rolf wheels roll very well and do not seem to be affected by cross winds. And on top of it all, the paint job on the bike looks great. Lance's signature doesn't hurt either. WOW!
