Velopedia analysis

What the specifications mean

Derived from the archived manufacturer record

The 700C label identifies a 622 mm bead-seat diameter, but tire width and frame or fork clearance remain separate compatibility questions. For the steel frame, paint damage and moisture entry matter because corrosion can begin at scratches, vent holes or internal surfaces.

Wheel standard 700C · 622 mm The label fixes rim diameter, not tire width or available frame and fork clearance.

Frame inspection Steel Paint damage and moisture entry matter because corrosion can start externally or inside the frame.

Original MSRP $999.00 Historical launch-position context—not a current valuation or asking price.

Used-bike inspection

If you’re buying this bike used

Before any test ride: both brakes should stop the bike firmly and release cleanly; both wheels should run true and be securely attached; tires should have no casing damage; and the headset, handlebar, stem, cranks and pedals should have no looseness or play.

FrameCheck paint chips, vent holes and the inside of the seat tube for corrosion. Also look for dents, bent tubes and cracking around welded or brazed joints.
Wheels & tiresSpin both wheels and watch the rims for side-to-side or vertical movement. Check for dents, cracks, loose or uneven spokes and hub play, then inspect both tire casings for cuts, cracking or exposed threads.

This interpretation explains relationships in the published data. Confirm exact standards and dimensions before ordering parts or performing service.
