Bikes for Sale
Bikes for sale from our friends
Spencer and Cara Yates. Cara is one of Matt's cycling teammates who,
unfortunately, has been battling cancer from retinoblastoma for most of her
life. And, Spencer is Matt's best friend and tandem captain from the 1996
Atlanta Paralympic Games.
Spencer writes, "I don't
know why I didn't sale the bikes and equipment the day Cara was diagnosed with
her third cancer 3 years ago, but at this stage the "possessions" in
life all seem so worthless."
The prices are approximate
(negotiable) if you don’t want to bid on eBay, but I will donate the stuff to
youth or disabled cycling before I sell it for less than its worth.
See the list below for details
on the bikes and links to the items on e-bay. Feel free to forward this on
to family and friends. TELL
EVERYBODY YOU KNOW!!
If
you live in the northeast, and want to come to Worcester to pick them up (save
shipping $) be sure to check e-bay to see if it is not sold or bid above what
you want to pay. I have not yet
learned how to cancel an e-bay auction. We have so many small parts we cant list
them all. I'll almost GIVE most of the little stuff away if I get a reasonable
offer. My plan is to show up Wed night for track racing in Winchester, NH with
invitations to my house for the final gutting of my basement

·
Softride "beam" aluminum frame mountain bike w/ softride sprung stem
(I scored GRUNDIG world cup points with a stem like this at Mammoth in 1994)
This bike was ridden and raced once at the PRO NORBA level in 1997.
I was a “privateer” on the NORBA circuit 1993-95 so I had to be my
own mechanic, and I’m pretty darn good. This
bike is race ready. 8 speed rear
end, campagnolo rims on Ultimate titanium hubs, aluminum spoke nipples,
Continental Traction Pro tire on front, Ritchey Omegabite rear (not in the
picture, I decided to put it on after I took the pictures) Deore XT cantilever
brakes (with aluminum mounting bolts) with Dia-Compe PC7 levers, XTR rapidfire
shifters, XTR front derailleur, Deore XT rear derailleur, XTR/Dura Ace chain.
The pictures have an XTR crank in them, but they are really beat so I put
on a brand new pair of Ultimate custom machined cranks with 3 new chainrings!
carbon Trek bar ends, Ritchey WCS titanium rail saddle, Little Blackburn jersey
pocket pump, NO PEDALS. (I have several on auction here at eBay, buy separately, ship
together.) No “buy it now”, but
I sent a price to my large network of friends: $800 plus shipping.
I don’t know what I’ll get here on eBay, NO RESERVE!!

·Bob
Stowe/Phase 3 cycles Time Trial Bike: Because
it is a specific event bike, this one has VERY few miles, probably less than
500. Comes with a fast (tubular) race wheel (sun mistral aero rim and Hi-E hub)
and a light mountain bike wheel for training (it just needs a 26x1 tire, easy to
find) It may be old, but it has very new aero bars (Syntace). The rear wheel is
also for training (Mavic MA2 rim, Hi-E hi/lo hub, and you can buy a disk wheel
that you prefer to race on (or may have already) The Dura Ace 7 speed downtube
shifters will index (click) on any 8 speed cassette, or work friction on a 9
speed if you buy a new chain. the dura ace rear derailleur has the smoothest
Campagnolo ball bearing jockey wheels on it, and the chain is long enough to use
a 60 chainring!! (works great on the 54 that it has, very low friction) The
front derailleur and shifter (and crankset, 172.5mm, 54/42 chainrings) are from
a group from Shimano called Sante, was painted white, and came out in the late
80s. The Brakes are Dura Ace aero levers and calipersand look Brand new. The
bottom bracket is a sealed Mavic, the smoothest and toughest ever made.
Campagnolo C-record seatpost, Ritchey logic WCS saddle with titanium rails. $600
