    ON Behalf of my partner – For sale is my Colnago CLD Ultegra carbon road bike.

    FS – $2200 ono ( I have many photos but cant upload them so contact me direct)

    I have found it to be a great performing race/road bike, but it is also really comfortable. It has a female-specific geometry: a slightly shorter top tube, to guarantee more comfort, and a tapered head tube (1 1/4 – 1 1/8), for added strength and better precision for greater bike handling. The components have also been chosen to better suit women: the Deda stem is shorter, the Deda handlebar is narrower (compared to Colnago’s usual component selection) and the bike comes fitted with a womens’-specific saddle.

    It is fitted with Shimano Ultegra components and a compact chainset. The Ultegra components are much lighter than on the 105 groupset and provide excellent and clean shifting. The compact chainset also provides easier gearing, which comes in especially handy when heading into the hills.. Taking into account the 12-25 rear cassette, the CLD Ultegra provides you with plenty of gears to get you up the steepest of climbs, longest of drags, as well as high gears for speed along the flat.

    It is in great condition. I have had it just about one year (from new) and it has really been cared for. I actually still love this bike and think it’s a fantastic ride, but I just got bought a shiny new one for my birthday, so I need the space.

    The matt black + white colour scheme is stunning, the pictures really don’t do it justice. I would recommend coming to have a look at it – and/or test riding it – to see what a great bike it is!

    The size is 46. I am 1.68m and it fits great. I believe it is recommended for people 160cm-175cm roughly.
    It currently resells for $3,999 (http://www.bikeexchange.com.au/a/road-bikes/colnago/vic/malvern/cld-womens/102271393 – this is interstate, so add postage to that), so this is the opportunity to get a fantastic bike at a great price!
