SOLD I seriously need to make room. The Weigle isn't selling. I have another Kirk that fits me better. That's for the reasons.
Randonnee Kirk, 60cc ST, 57.5cc TT, 20HT.
Absolutely stunning green and off-white paint with gold piping. Custom matching stem and fenders. Paul neo-retro Cantis. Caution: Will only take a compact crank, in Campy at least.
The perfect bike for light load or credit card touring. Very stable -Alps descent tested.
How about 1750$ shipped for frame, fork, fenders, brakes, King headset, painted to match stem.
The picture without fenders is mine, the ones with fenders are Bryan's (Poppawheelie, former owner). I have many more pics if needed. Condition is excellent+ .

That frame is the canvas for the perfect all-purpose bike. Where's Dave T?

Wow.
That's quite a deal for that bike... even without including the matching fenders, stem, Paul's brakes and headset.
I'm lucky it's too big for me. I'm above my limit already...

Nice frame. A few questions:
1. Headtube angle and fork rake (or trail if you know it)?
2. Max tire size with those fenders?
3. Stem length?
Thanks!

I have ridden this bike and uhhhh, drooled all over it. Fits me perfectly, but it's a no-go. George knows the sad story ;(.
Someone buy it and love it.

this is way too big for me, but i still spent some time figuring out if I could somehow, someway, make it work...one of the nicest bikes i've seen. hope the new owner enjoys it.

This may be back on the block as it is a touch large for me using the matching stem (and I can't see using anything else) and I have my eye on something else. F/F/hs/brakes/fenders, same as I purchased. PM if interested.
Thanks!

A couple of guys asked about tire fit. I tried a rear tire from one of my other bikes. The tire is a Challenge Roubaix 27mm tubular. It fits under the fenders...JUST barely. I probably would not ride it that way, prefering something in the 25 range. W/o fenders there is a lot of clearance!

Double thumbs-up on this bike from the original owner (me). Super solid and confidence-inspiring when pointing downhill. Pretty too...good luck with the (re) sale.
