1993 Specialized Epic 52cm carbon 'ruby'

This bike is weightless. Original lugged carbon tubes painted in rubi red/black. I got this bike with EMS composite fork, Cinelli stem, Cinelli handlebar, and a single speed cog. The plan is to restore it into its original glory.

Best for 5’2″-5’7″ riders.
