They were made for a bit several years ago as a modern steel bike: PF30BB, 44HT IIRC. Lemond Geo--Loong TT.
Got positive reviews at the time. Sort of similar to CK Cielo frames in that they came with a good name, semi-boutique-y small numbers, well made, rode well, and POOF! Gone.. |

They were cool framesets for their time. Steve is right PF30, 44HT, they were also drilled for Di2 plus had mechanical stops on them.
Was also right around the time of his collab with Time for the carbon frames. There's some postings on the web BikeRumor is just one example.. If memory serves, Zen Fab made them for Lemond, but I could be wrong. |

Cool framesets. I emailed them (I think) last year about buying one; they still wanted what I thought at the time a pretty high price for a frameset they weren't advertising and had sitting in the backroom as NOS. If I remember correctly, it was around $2500 and above, unpainted - but paint was included with purchase.
Baller frameset though. If I didn't have so many here at the house, I probably would have caved and bought one. I was hoping for a discount considering they weren't actively being advertised. |

I was a bit off in the price. Here’s a snippet of what I got last February:
The price of a frame + fork (includes headset, seat collar) is $2349 + shipping. The bike is offered in 3 colors (Black, Orange, or Light Blue) but if you wanted a custom color we could inquire with the painter for pricing. Lead time on a frame is approximately 4-5 weeks as all the frames have to go through paint. That price for the eBay frameset is a great if the size fits.

It looks new to me - as I look at the pics. As stated, paint needs some work (blemishes). Buy it cheap and have it refinished and probably still come out ahead of what they may be asking for a new one today.

I agree. Seller states he will consider offers. If it were my size and seller would take $600 to 700, I think I would take it. I would not do the asking price. It does not state size, but it looks really tall. Frame could be stripped for the price of a can of stripper, the time it takes to sand it down to clean, smooth steel, and a basic one stage powder coating costs about $100, at least by the guy that has done mine. Two stage is $150 to 180. I love my Poprad and Tourmalet.

I've not seen one in person, but I do like LeMonds and their geo suits me well.
