New 2011 Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL3 size 52 carbon frame set
Frame and Wheel is bringing a new 2011 Specialized S-Works Tarmac SL3 size 52 carbon frame set to market on the Frame and Wheel eBay Store. This frame set is a replacement for a 2010 SL2 frame set that the previous owner purchased new from Bike Barn in Whitman, Massachusetts. The 2010 SL2 suffered a cracked bottom bracket and Specialized replaced it with this 2011 SL3 frame through its warranty program. The frame set has been in the possession of the previous owner since July 2010. It has never been built up, it has been stored indoors in its original packaging and it has never been dropped or damaged. The previous owner is selling the frame because he already has a road bike that is built up and operating fine, and he would like to raise some cash to obtain a time trial frame. The frame features a tapered head tube and tapered steer tube (1 1/8” to 1 1/2”) and a carbon braze-on front derailleur hanger. Bottom bracket is English thread, drop outs are alloy and cabling is external. The frameset as shown weighs a total of 1.54 kg or 3 pounds and 5 ounces. The serial number is on the bottom of the bottom bracket and reads: STAI210D0423. The serial number on the front fork reads K4710D0879. The steer tube is uncut. There is no seat post included with this frame set. There are about 50 images of this frame at Frame and Wheel eBay Selling Services and on Facebook at Frame and Wheel. Please take a look. The frame is being sold as is.
Review of condition
The frame is in excellent condition. It is clean and there are no scratches, blemishes cracks or chips in the finish of the frame. The front and rear forks are in alignment with the centerline of the frame and the rear derailleur hanger is straight. The front derailleur hanger and the cable housing guides are riveted securely. The chain protectors are included and mounted firmly. The barrel adjusters work properly, the bottom bracket threads are not stripped or corroded and the cable guide on the bottom of the bottom bracket is mounted securely. The race on the front fork crown is already mounted. The seat post collar and bolts for the water bottle cage are included. The Cane Creek headset is complete (star nut, top and bottom bearings, top bearing cover, spacers, top cap and bolt).
Frame and Wheel conclusion
This is an effectively new frame set that will suit the smaller rider who wants to upgrade to one of the latest top end offerings from Specialized without paying the new bike premium. It is very light and it features a white and blue finish that is easier on the eye than some of Specialized’s more startling finishes. This is a rare opportunity to obtain an effectively new and current year frameset at a substantial discount to the the retail price. The new owner of this frame set will relish the value of this purchase on every ride while channeling the cycling excellence of Schleck and Contador.
