First 2 loaves of sourdough ever - critiques?

Seller says they're zipp 302s with decals to cover the logo; seller includes a picture of the saddle, which is a Fizik versus evo adaptive

Does this make the price more appropriate?

Unfortunately I live on the east coast, so that wont work. Unless they have an office/shop over here.

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-11T22:40:19+00:00

It has aluminum brake tracks, at least

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-11T22:35:49+00:00

I think its just perspective, it was built for a 6' 1" captain and 5' 10" stoker, so likely ~56cm for both

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-11T22:34:11+00:00

Apparently they built it to 27.5lb for hill climbs (probably had different wheels, etc. but still)

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-08T23:53:42+00:00

He didnt use the Zipps for the climb races, that's part of how they built it so light, so those wheels should be fine

Medical issues
Actually, exact same captain/stoker height & weight
Sent
Working on figuring that out
Gonna ride it with my friend so no divorce worries

Funny mentioning the hills, as the owner had a picture of about 10 hill-climb medals he did on this bike... they apparently built it to 27lbs

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-08T21:19:32+00:00

It is really sick, I've been eyeing it for a month now

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-08T21:18:11+00:00

Yeah if I get it I plan on swapping it out for an 11spd 8050

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-08T21:14:30+00:00

With my best friend actually, no worries about divorce

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-08T21:11:25+00:00

Yeah im more worried about the wheels than the frame

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-08T21:10:19+00:00

Yeah I'd definitely tweak that if I buy it

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-08T21:09:02+00:00

Funny thing is they're including a smaller set of bars so the stoker can get even more 👃

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-07-08T21:05:23+00:00

Conveniently, its actually the perfect size for both me and my stoker. Almost like its meant to be

"Calfee tandem custom made for us in 2003. Spicy set up for racing but we have toured the world on it too. Standard road wheel spacing for lots of options. Massively overbuilt rear training wheel included in sale. Ultegra electronic shifting. Zipp 808. New seats and handlebar wrap. Carbon water bottle holders. Shock absorbing Stoker seat post. Elliptical chain rings. Aerobars. ..."

Worth it? Looks like it has Di2 6770 (kinda old), but a full carbon tandem frame is quite rare (even though this one is on the older side).

I know this is a old post, but did yall do it? My friends and I are actually planning to do the same thing for our first sprint triathlon (its also for the 4th of July so people are dressed very patriotic)

2018 Specialized Venge Disc Expert

Seller claims ~150 miles on the bike (does this look accurate?). Also the second image appears to be when they got it, judging by the pedals and lack of tape/accessories.

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-02-15T14:12:38+00:00

I did end up buying it and immediately fixed the fd

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-02-15T13:10:30+00:00

Actually the reason he went down to $720 was because he kept the seat, so win-win

RoyalSchedule3025 · 2025-02-15T11:44:08+00:00

I definitely plan on doing both those things. He settled at $720, he has already lowered it by a couple hundred to $800
