BRIDGESTONE PHM9 CARBON TRACK FRAMESET, LARGE, BLUE/WHITE/BLACK, MINT CONDITION

Description

BRIDGESTONE PHM9 CARBON TRACK FRAMESET, LARGE, BLUE/WHITE/BLACK,  MINT CONDITION !
I purchased this frameset brand new at "Business Cycles" in Miami, Florida at the beginning of year 2013 for USD $ 3800 dollars during the retirement sale of Mr. John Dacey,  the store owner.  Due to health issues I had to stop track racing so I am selling all my track gear.   This frameset is in awesome condition,  no paint chips, no scratches, no rust. I am the one and only owner.  It was used only for racing the 500 meter TT at the velodrome and professionally maintained every month.  It has never been crashed and has been kept in an apartment room.
These frame sets are manufactured by ANCHOR BIKES in
Japan
but they bear BRIDGESTONE decals (graphics) in the USA.  You can see them at "www.anchor-bikes.com".   The new model is the ANCHOR BRIDGESTONE TR9 and the retail price is $ 407.000 Japanese Yens (USD $ 3723 dollars as of May 1, 2021).  You can also see them at "www.alexscycle.com",  one of the main retailers they have.
At the London Olympics in 2012 this was the elite track frameset used by many cyclists like Victoria Pendleton, member of the British Track Cycling Team.
The original frameset includes the Frame, Fork, Headset and Seat Post
.
The
fork
is a carbon fork with an aluminum steerer tube,  1 inch in diameter with a 1 1/8" adaptor to support 1 1/8" spacers and stem.   The fork is undrilled for track use only, steerer tube is uncut.
The
headset
is a "Chris King" black headset, 1 inch in diameter (built to last a lifetime !).
The
seat post
is an FSA SL-K carbon seat post,  27.2 mm in diameter, 350 mm in length.
I am adding a second all carbon fork
(legs and steerer tube are all carbon). This one is a "Lixada" carbon fork, made in Taiwan, steerer tube is 1 inch in diameter and the fork is drilled.
This fork has never been used, steerer tube is uncut and it also has a
1 1/8" adaptor to support 1 1/8" spacers and stem (see last picture please !).
