Ritchey Logic 55 25th Anniversary Edition, Dura-ace 2x11, Chris King wheels

Its finally happening, I have come to accept that I am too big for my best bike.
Mainly looking to split this as I want the crankset, mech and finishing kit for my next ritchey build, but if someone did want to take it all (minus the saddle) I could be convinced.

Frame + Fork

• Pretty much immaculate, was only ever ridden as a summer bike. 55cm
  size - geo here - 25th
  -Anniversary Blue Colourway which has a really nice deep metallic lustre
  -Bought new from Seabass in 2022
  
• Helicopter taped from first build so no cable rub, chain slap. all the grub you can see on
  the photos is just where grime has seeped up under the edge of the
  tape
  
• Tiny chip behind headset (shown in photos) . Must have been a stone that flicked up
  
• Almost invisible rub on drive side top tube
  
• Suppled with the original black headset and top cap and
  carbon fork plug. (the black one fits better than the replacement
  silver one, no gap)
  
  

Was looking for £750 £690, given the condition but let me know if im being crazy.

Wheels
Not too fussed if these don't sell as I've got other projects I can put them on
Chris King Red r45 hubs, recently serviced at Sterlands in Bristol
DT swiss 411 rims,
Sapim DB spokes
Built by Joey at Strongheart Wheelworks
£300 - not too fussed if these dont sell because they can become the worlds fanciest commuter wheels on my Ridley cyclocross machine. Keeping as the free hub cosmics on my ridley have finally given up the ghost

Dura-ace bits
- all 9000 stuff
I think im gonna keep the cranks and mechs so just the brakes and shifters for sale. All very good ocndition, slight mark
Brakes £90 pair
Shifters 2x11 mechanical £220 pair
If youre desperate for the whole groupset, drop me a message and ill see what I can do.
Moved more dura ace bits into separate post: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/402072/#comment17644518

With everything I'm happy to post, or if you want to come and have a look or a test ride (before the bike gets split) I'm in St George, Bristol.

Looking at the photos, two things strike me, 1, its so beautiful and 2. its so obviously the wrong size for me.

Looks like 650b at a first glance 🫣

I should have probably put the saddle down for photos.

for context im a slightly leggy 180cm, who likes a short top tube

paint looks great.

Ritchey geometry is usually long and low, but hopefully a size up would work for you

Dibs shifters please if you can post. Many thanks. T

Isn't this 9000 DA though?

That colour, lush!

Yeah my shimano serial number reference brain failed me badly earlier. its 9000 not 9100. sorrrrryy

What’s your saddle height? I’m 180cm and ride a 55cm Road Logic, saddle height is about 790. It can look a bit odd but as others have said they are meant to be low and long, the reach is 395ish even in the 55z

A size up might be too long for you because the reach is long on these frames.

Yeah, I think all things considered I chose the right size, the next size up would be too long, its just the wrong frame for me sadly. And no matter how I fiddle the position I get that familiar niggle between the shoulder blades.
I would like to try the new Ritchey Rando style offering with a higher stack at some point.

I have the same anniversary edition in 55cm! I'm 182cm and also have a saddle height of 790. It does look a bit small sometimes with the short seat tube but a 57cm would be long for me too.

GLWS.

oh it looks really nice in stealth mode.
Its not the looks of the high saddle that are putting me off but just not having gotten comfy with it after a few summers of trying

such long and low frames. I've always wanted one but the geometry just doesn't suit me!

I just measured and I was 815 saddle height, centre bb to top of the saddle.
Here's a photo of it set up for the right sized person and of the front brake which i some how missed out before
