Just in case anyone is interested, it's officially up for sale. Gavin Noble's Bike for anyone wants a piece if history, for the rest, well it's the fastest bike on the planet. Size may not fit everyone (5'11 or taller)

The big 40 next year, so going to treat myself to an upgrade and hopefully it's a faster model. Although haven't made up my mind yet what that will be, was trying to convince Gavin to part with his new uber cool 'Specialized Shiv'
, which is what i'd love, but he's talking 70.3 next year (where TT's are legal) so he's very slow to part with it, in fact he's grown quite attached. Argon have a new frame out and Frank's Planet X is also enticing. Decisions decisions. Hve to sell this first though....

Hey Bill, don't know what your budget is, but this bike certainly would have suited you size wize. You will be looking for a 58 + frame size (any smaller and it won't fit) and try if possible (budget wise) to go for a carbon frame. I posted both on Done Deal and Adverts.ie and I have to say the interest was excellent. Not every add gives the size so sometimes you have to do a little digging. Unfortunately the frame size you need is not abundent, so you might have to search for a while to get what you want. There are some good deals out there (Some poor fecker has a 2011 Trek Speed Concept 9.9 Frame for sale for €2,800, which sounds enormous but that is a steal for a €9k frame (Wheelworx the agent only stocks up to the 9.8 model). That's my experiences anyway, I'm sure there are other forums that the lads may have. Best of luck
