2000 Ritchey Plexus

2000 Ritchey Plexus

This is one of my personal bike and was really the first "boutique" bike that I ever owned. The curved seat stays are supposed to add a little suppleness to the rear end but I can't ay that I noticed much of a difference. It has been through several different build kits since I have owned it, so if you see the bike, it will likely be different than the parts list below. I use it to test out components to see how they work. It currently has the On-One Mary bars (available on our parts for sale page) which are my favorites of the current crop of "alt" bars.
