🔥 Up for Sale:
A true piece of cycling history — the 56cm 2003 Trek 5900 USPS Team Frameset. This was the same frame ridden by Lance Armstrong’s U.S. Postal Service team during their dominant Tour de France years. The 5900 was Trek’s flagship road bike at the time, crafted from OCLV 110 Carbon and known for its featherweight construction and road-racing pedigree.
This frame is in great condition, showing only light cosmetic wear consistent with age (please see photos). It has been professionally cleaned, inspected, and is ready to be built up into a race-worthy classic or a nostalgic head-turner.
📏 Frame Size & Ideal Fit:
With a 555mm top tube and 120mm head tube, this 56cm Trek is best suited for riders in the 5’9” to 6’0” range. It’s ideal for road cyclists seeking a stiff, responsive ride with vintage flair — whether you’re building a lightweight climber or a fast-paced crit machine.
