Orbea Starship Euskaltel Team 54cm Sram Rival 

Up for sale is my Orbea Starship Euskaltel Team bike.  This is one of the few bikes made from Columbus Starship aluminum.  Lighter than most carbon bikes and almost as comfortable.  Full carbon Time Avant Stiff fork.  Full Sram Rival with compact crank.  54 cm frame with 55cm top tube.  152mm head tube.  I am 5'9" and it fits like a glove.  Wheels are Velocity Nuvian with black DT spokes and an asymetric rear rim.  Bike has under 1000 miles because it was always my spare bike to use when my carbon bikes were being replaced under warranty.  Graphics are all painted on...no cheesy decals. Cables are fresh, bar tape is brand new, hoods are brand new.  Zero disappointments.  Seat tube uses a 28.0 seatpost just like Colnago.  It shipped from the factory with a shim to allow a 27.2 post.  This is included in the sale.  No cracks or dents.  There are a few tiny scratches on the drive side seatstay that you can see if you get really close.  There is also one on the underside of the top tube.  Replaceable derailleur hanger has never been removed and has never been bent.  Tires are in good shape.

Update!! The Rival front derailleur uses a plastic band under the clamp to act as a shim.  The seat tube is 31.8mm and the derailleur clamp is 34.9.  Some might not like this simple and effective solution.  I will include a brand new 31.8 Campagnolo Centaur front derailleur with purchase that the buyer can use at their discretion.
