I have decided to sell my Rans F5.
The bike was purchased new, by me, in 2009 from Recumbent Brothers in Colorado, it is a 2009 model.
It came from Rans in the Silver/Charcoal color scheme that was designated for the Pro 700c frames... but it is a 650c bike. Not sure why they did this, but it makes the bike somewhat unique and it looks a lot better imo then the blue or red.
The bike has about 1800 miles on it and is in awesome shape.
The stem was shortened by 2" to lower the handle bars and the seat brace (seat stay) tips where removed on the inner tubing to allow the seat to be reclined to the last hole. These two mods where done by my LBS.
Also included is a Yellow Spinergy SPOX wheel in 650c (see pictures). It was purchased to be used on the trainer, but I preferred the way it rode to the Jalco wheel on the rear. I used it for almost all the miles on the bike and used the Jalco for the trainer.
Also included:
a Rans Z-bag in good shape and a Adems headrest.
The headrest is the Adem 2 style with the shock absorbent / floating pad mounting system and has a black anodized mast.
I currently have a new Continental Grand Prix 4000 on the front and a new continental Gatorskin on the rear.
The front fork has a few small scratches in the clear coat from being transported in a vehicle (they can be seen in the pictures).
The bike is Standard size.

Of course I'd prefer not to ship the bike. I'm open to driving to meet someone half way, depending on location. I'm just south of New Orleans, La.
I will ship, but I'm sure that will be expensive.
Send me an email and lets talk...
Thanks.
