--> IMAGES OF THIS FRAME AND FORK AVAILABLE HERE Kuips, if you haven t heard of them, are the bikes and frames manufactured by Spuik, which you have probably seen adorning the eyes of Alejandro Valverde and the CAISSE D EPARGNE-ILES BALEARES team. You can also learn more here. This is a 2005 Kuips Ignition frame that is in superb condition with a very light, very aero Profile Design ACD carbon fork (MSRP $400). I had this set up as a TT bike so it was ridden very lightly (once a week when the weather was nice, never in the winter or even rain, raced a few times) and is only slightly over a year old. This is a great frame regardless of use, whether you re a recreational rider, beginner racer or seasoned veteran. The frame is aluminum and is a top choice for cyclists demanding light weight and snappy race performance with beautiful styling. ? TIG-welded AluLite 7.3 Series 7005 Alloy Triple-Butted Ultra-Conified Tubing. ? Kuips SRTrac Slight and Rigid Traction frame geometry, providing the optimum balance of comfort and performance. ? Meticulously designed, painted, and finished with clear-coating that is second-to-none. ? Kuips integrated headset It is a size L (54/55/56 cm), the angled top tube measures 53.5 cm, but the actual length (not angled) is about 54.5-55 cm; the full geopmetry can be viewed here. I m 5 10 and this bike fits me perfectly. The carbon fork dampens any vibrations well and the aero design does a nice job of slicing through the air. I really can t say enough good things about this bike or the manufacturer and the only reason I m getting rid of it is because I m switching to a true TT frame for next year. If you decide to buy this frame I can almost guarantee that you ll be happy with it and really enjoy how well it rides and handles.
