Speedvagen 2011 Cross for sale.

I received a newly painted and lovely Speedvagen cross frame. I had posted a WTB Speedvagen ad a few months ago and Sacha White contacted me about a frame he had in his workshop. Essentially new, and I was able to choose a new paint scheme. I bought the frame with the intentions of running a small Cross bike, as I normally ride a 57cm frame. I got the frame and the amount of seat mast is just a tad short for me. I basically unboxed the frame, mounted cranks and wheels to verify the fit and boxed it back up. This bike is basically a 55.5cm bike.

Here's a chance to get a new Speedvagen well below the price of a new one or 6month wait.
  1. Speedvagen 2011/2012 cross frame Painted "Army Green" with Vanilla blue hollow lettering scheme
  2. Enve Cross fork painted "Army Green"
  3. Enve Seat Mast Topper painted "Army Green"
  4. Edge/Enve stem (120mm) Painted "Army Green" with Vanilla blue hollow lettering scheme
  5. Attached Geo Chart

Asking $2800 shipped and paypal fees. Will ship in the Speedvagen box and packaging from Speedvagen. Overnight shipping the US.

email: chris.ikner@gmail.com

Pics and Geo chart below.

I don't see the advantage of this type of seat post design.

I'm curious as to how this could possibly happen. Did you forget your saddle height when you ordered the frame?

is the seat post height measured in the diagram with the topper at full extension or bottomed out? How much can you add? Isn't it like 3cm or close to that?

Just in case people don't know COAT, the blue hollow lettering is paint, not a series of decals, right?

I don't know if you're interested but there is always the option of getting a mast topper with more vertical adjustment, such as a PMP.

I've explored a few options. At this point I'm more comfortable with getting fitted to a Speedvagen and ISP system. This kind of money, might as well make it fit perfectly into my standard measurements.

Thanks for the input though. appreciate it.

think the CX geos are off the site since this years frames have been delivered (duh) and they are now into road mode. once that gets done, it'll be back to cx mode...etc.
