Bridgestone R5L Road Frame & Fork. Imported from Japan.
Size 56cm TT - Tall headtube for “All-Day” rides.
Never used, just moved parts to a smaller frame as this one is a tiny bit big.
Comes with Headset bearings, two headset cones (to give higher/ lower bar height) and carbon bung. Also has a groovy instruction book with cool manga-style pictures!
I don’t have the right tool to remove the 5800 105 BB so I’ll throw that in too.
Frame is made in Japan, seemingly. I don’t have a way to weigh it but it feels pretty light - as well a high quality Alu frame should. The fork is feather-weight! Full carbon tapered Job.
One big price drop to £180 delivered/ £165 collected.
Off to eBay if no takers at this epic bargain price.

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering:  That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Being destined for the Japanese market only, the size range is on the small size - This is actually the largest size they do! Geo chart above.
Condition is new, mint except for marks around the dropouts where the wheels went in.
Needs posting from Leeds - so £220 to your door. NOW £180 - no offers
