I never heard of BikeBling before. In looking around their site I found a frame that made my mouth water. My credit card was warmed up and ready to go. Maybe I will just go with a Brooks. You know the formula for bike ownership of n+1? There's always room for one more.


$1040.00

Litespeed T7 Frame 2015: Ride Litespeed's legendary titanium quality and craftsmanship right off the dealer floor. The Litespeed T7 is offered both as a frame or a complete bike with Shimano Ultegra or 105. The T7 frame is made with 3/2.5 titanium and has less aggressive geometry for optimized for comfort and ride fit, thanks to the taller head tube and longer chainstays. Additional frame features such as PF30 BB, 1 1/8' head tube, and the coveted Litespeed head badge, will make you want to ditch carbon for a titanium classic.


or the 2016 built bike for $2,700


Litespeed T7 Rival Bike 2016: The T7 is optimized for performance and comfort, with a taller headtube and slightly longer chainstays. Our Super Sportive geometry, the same that’s found on the T5, allows for a broad range of riders to find their perfect fit. But it’d be wrong to label this as a bike build solely for gran fondos and sportives. It shares the same legendary attention to detail as the rest of our T series, and it could line up for a race at a moment’s notice.

A seamless, cold-worked 3Al/2.5V titanium variable-tapered top tube starts the build. It has our size-specific tube set, so each T7 shares the same great ride characteristics. The PF30 BB is stiff, hassle-free, and compatible with almost any crankset on the market. And finally, the 1 ⅛” head tube is appointed with the artfully machined Litespeed head tube badge -- a symbol of quality for three decades.
