Felt SlIPSTREAM AR1 sz 56 with Zipp 808s TOUR RIDDEN
Hey All,
I am posting this up as a feeler. I really don't want to sell this bike but I am almost in need of a new car and unfortunately I might have to let this go. It is 1 of 8 Slipstream AR1's that were built for the Felt Slipstream Team during the 2008 Tour de France. This frame was made extra stiff and was ridden by Will Frischkorn to a 2nd place Stage 3 finish. The frame is in fantastic shape, with some small signs of wear in portions of the clearcoat. There is no wear to any of the frame or the integrity of the carbon. When I got this frame, I replaced the Dura-Ace 7800 gruppo that came with the bike and put on my current Campy Record set up. I also added the 2007-2008 Zipp 808's with Vittoria tires. It comes with the team Fizik saddle. If anyone has any questions about anything or I am forgetting to add anything, please feel free to email me at mile2424@aol.com. I am not sure what kind of price to put on this because I know it is very unique and will require a specific type of a buyer. A lot of people don't like the idea of a tour ridden bike but this is truly and awesome piece of artistic design and the frame is in excellent shape.

I believe it weighs in around 17-18 lbs actually. The wheels are clinchers which weigh at least 1-2 lbs more than tubulars would.
I got the bike from a shop in Boulder, CO where the team would train.
