FS: Challenge Hurricane SL $2100
I purchased this bike in 2007 from Samuel Harris, who purchased it from
Kelvin at Angletech as a demo in 2006. I believe it is a 2005. I put on
about 1000 miles in the last 2 years. It is an absolute speed demon, and
can climb really well for a 'bent. I have switched out the tires, tubes,
wheelset, brakes, and front fork. I also changed the second front ring
to a 56 and went from a road cassette to a mountain one, mainly because
some of the hilly terrain in Vermont required some more intense brakes
and nifty climbing gears. It is the fastest bike I have ever ridden,
hands down, but it is low enough to make it impractical for uses other
than a road ride. The bike is in good shape, but after a long ride (few
hours) I find that the Challenge air shock slowly leaks.
I built some volae/bacchetta inspired dual 559 and 700c highracer
frames this winter. These are much more multi-purpose, and I need some
money to spec them out, so I am selling this beautiful machine.
