60cm 2015 Raleigh RXS. Gates belt drive. All stock except 3.2mm lizard skins tape and upgraded bar plugs. At just under 50 years old I find that after one or two geared races I didn't have the "Umph" to perform in the SS end of the day race. $800.00

Hi Jim! I’m interested in your measurements and “normal” road bike sizing...
I’m 6’2” - #185 and am extremely comfortable on a 57cm for road racing.
Not sure how this translates to Raleigh?
thanks - josh

Hi Josh,
The bike is a 60cm ST and a 59cmTT. There is a sticker on the ST the says the bike will fit a rider. 6'1-6'3. That doesn't mean much to me. Everyone has a unique leg/torso ratio. My last road bike was a Large Max-Lelli. Italian large worked out to a 57cm TT. My current road bikes are a 60cm Domane,and a 59cm Paketa. I like them both, but prefer the Trek. Fits perfect for me. I'm 6'3.5 190lbs. I also have a 58cm Boone, and a 60cm custom Quiring CX. The Quiring also fits me perfect. Simply disappears under me, I can ride it for hours on end. I like the fit on the Raleigh, I just don't ride it enough. Also to be honest I forgot I listed the bike here. I also have it listed on eBay. Auction ends tomorrow. I've dropped the price to $650.00 US dollars. You could buy it through eBay if your interested. I'll lower the price on cyclocross mag if it doesn't sell on eBay.
Cheers
Jim
Really appreciate your time and response, Jim!
I'm a horrific "maintainer" of equipment, so that's why the ss, belt drive is beautiful to me :)
$650 will definitely go on Ebay -- I'll follow along!! Good luck and I'm very thankful for the thoughtful, detailed response! Josh
