Frame and Wheel is auctioning a 2010 Scott Plasma 2 LTD frame set on the Frame and Wheel eBay Store. The frame set was purchased new in 2009 and built up in 2010. It was used for time trials and training in 2010 and 2011. It has been in storage since then. The frame set has had only one owner. It has never been crashed. The owner is selling the frame set because he no longer uses it. The frame set features Scott Plasma 2 LTD  carbon fork, integrated seat post, oversized top tube, cut away seat tube, aero down tube and seat stays, “twin turbo” chain stays, English thread bottom bracket, Ritchey WCS seat post topper, horizontal rear drop outs, internal cabling, light weight and distinctive angular lines. The owner is 5 feet 11 inches tall with an inseam of 32 inches. The frame set as shown weighs 4 pounds 14 ounce (2.2 kg). The frame serial number reads STR05D15409050059. The front fork serial number reads STF03K10009060046. There are 130 images of the frame set on Frame and Wheel’s Flickr page. Please take a look.

Review of condition
The frame set is in good condition. It is clean and ready for build. There are no cracks, bulges, discolorations, flexing or flaking that raise concerns about the structural integrity of the frame. The rear triangle is in alignment with the the centerline of the frame. The rear derailleur hanger is straight and undamaged. There are no obstructions in the shifting and brake cable openings on the top of the top tube. The cable guide on the chain stay is undamaged and free of obstructions. The seat post cable guide mount is undamaged and unobstructed. The rear brake mount fitting is not missing and undamaged. There is no corrosion in the water bottle bolt holes. The bottom bracket shell is not damaged. The threads in the bottom bracket are not stripped or corroded. The front derailleur hanger is mounted securely. The speed skeg is not damaged. There are no cracks, bulges, discoloration, flexing or flaking that raise concerns about the structural integrity of the front fork. The crown race is not damaged. The cartridge bearings are not corroded or damaged. The cartridge bearings turn smoothly and the head set is complete. The seat clamp works properly and it is complete. The chain stay protector is attached securely. Frame and Wheel notes the following. There is a 2 mm x 15 mm abrasion on the inside face of the non drive side chain stay. There is a  3 mm x 10 mm chip on the outside face of the drive side rear drop out. The drive side cable guide seal on the top tube is torn. The back of the seat post shows road wear. There is an area of light scratches on the inside surface of the drive side chain stay near the drop out. There is light road wear on the bottom of the down tube. The chain stay protector has a wrinkle. 

Frame and Wheel conclusion
Frame and Wheel’s view is that this Scott Plasma 2 LTD frame set will make an excellent choice for the road cyclist who seeks a stiff and light frame set for time trials. It will also suit the triathlete who wants to upgrade to a practical and full carbon time trial bicycle. The frame set is in good condition and shows immaterial signs of wear. Built up with SRAM Red components, Profile Design aero bars, a Zipp disc rear wheel and a Zipp deep dish front wheel, the frame set will become a fast bicycle with a voice that speaks of performance as would a gladiator. A fine opportunity to obtain a lightly used and very nice time trial frame set.
