Columbus 2009 sl

Ben acknowledged and answered all my questions in a timely manner. I was given quality courteous service throughout the entire process of purchasing my truck.

Highly recommended! Hasan helped me out a ton. Had all the paper work ready when I got there and I had the car within an hour. Strongly recommended. Thanks will be back. Working with David was a very transparent, informational and pleasant experience.

Not much to rate, dealer said vehicle was sold, but it is still showing on your link. They did not answer any of my questions.

All I received was a hurried standard email reply indicating I should contact their dealership by phone. No mention of the vehicle I was interested in. Piss poor of them in my opinion. It looks as if they don't want my business. I was ready to buy the vehicle at their sales price. I am sure another seller will be happy to make the sale. Transmission: 7-Speed Automatic Overdrive. I bought my first Raptor from them.

No pressure sales approach from day one. Awesome customer service. I would definitely buy from them again. Thanks guys. Nivacrom Steel - Weight: Here is a brief description of the technicalities involved in this amazing tubing:"It is how and where the steel is put in the tubeset that gives a tubeset its particular feel. By making the tubes oversize or standard, thick-wall or thin; these are what make the difference.

Higher tensile strengths give the maker the versatility to put the steel where he wants, in the quantity he wants. A bike made of it has a superb ride because its excellent specifications allow Columbus the freedom to make tubes that were impossible a few years ago.

In the 's and 's when Columbus' SL and SLX tubing were the state of the art, the top tube was 25mm in diameter and the downtube was 28mm in diameter. The tubing wall was 0. This is what is meant by "double butted". The internal diameter of the tube varies so that the tube is thicker at the joints, where the stress is greatest. In the early 's, steel tubes underwent a small revolution.

The top tube changed from 25mm diameter to 28mm. The down tube went from 28mm to 32mm. This increase in diameter allowed the tubing makers to make the walls thinner and still get a stiffer, lighter frame. An additional bonus was the profound improvement in the feel of the bike. The new bikes became more stable mostly because of the bigger top tube and gained a fluid, beautiful feel that is impossible to describe, but wonderful to experience.

With these bigger diameter tubes, the wall thickness at the thinnest part of the tubes went from 0. People loved the feel of Brain OS bikes, especially since the price was so reasonable. EL-OS was 0. That's always nice. The biggest bonus was in how the bike felt. Anyone who has ridden an EL-OS bike built by a good builder understands what a supple, beautiful, wonderful bike really is. The problem was that getting a 0. Even now, almost a decade later, there are tubing companies that do not even have the technology to draw a 0.

Even though Columbus can now draw 0. Courtesy of Smartcycles. TSX: Tube set for professional use, coupling maximum performance with reduced weight. It is particularly suitable for stage races of more than Km over mixed terrain. In addition to butted walls, this set has five helicoidal internal reinforcements, thus giving greater rigidity against tube flexing and torsion.

Cyclex Steel - Weight: g. SLX: "Superbutted" tube set specially designed for professional cyclists, featuring five spirals for greater rigidity in the joint area or the bottom bracket. Double-butted tube ends. SPX: "Superbutted" tube set with increased thickness for professional cyclists. Ideal for larqe frames.

MS: Multishape, special tube set developed in collaboration with Gilco Design. Each tube profile is shaped to withstand specific stresses. Designed for competition use, it requires a precise riding style, and improves frame response to sudden shocks.

SL: All-purpose, high-performance tube set for road races over even terrain. Double-butted tubes. Cold-rolled fork blades. SP: Heavy-duty, high-performance set, especially recommended for large frames.

Double-butted tubing. CROMOR: Built of cold-drawn, chrome-moly butted tubing, this set is for the more demanding riders who favour versatile, high-performance light frames, but can also be used for larger frames. GARA: Road set especially suited for amateur and touring cyclists who demand stout,lightweight racing frames.

Cr Mo Steel - Weight: g. AELLE: Set for amateur and touring cyclists, built of cold-drawn, microalloyed-steel thin-wall tubing which makes it especially lightweight. CMn Steel - Weight: The oversized oriented elliptical cross-sections have thicknessesof as little as 0. The oversized unicrown fork blades are cold-rolled for greater elastic strength and resilience.

It combines the excellent performance of Nivacrom' steel with the traditional diameters. These features, and in particular the oversized tube cross-sections, ensure excellent rigidityand good handling over rugged terrain, making this set idea for competitions.

CROMOR OR: Set for off-road experts who want to take on any terrain, regardless of difficulty,enjoying the maximum safety and dependability of an indestructible vehicle. The cold-drawn, chrome-moly tubing has butted ends. The butted unicrown fork blades have increased thickness in the weld areas. Oversized tube diameters give the frame excellent rigidity and stability,offering both pro and amateur cyclists a good measure of safety coupledwith the characteristic lightness of Columbus butted tubing.

CrMo Steel - Weight: g. CrMo Steel — Weight: g. It dates from the early 's. The intial version used a teardrop shaped down tube, seat tube and seat stays in conjunction with an oval top tube and chain stays, and a round head tube. Later versions had teardrop shaped chain stays. The tubeset was designed primarily for time trials and aerodymanic efficiency and therefore it is not practical to compare it directly to other round, Columbus tubesets.

However, based on tube thickness, the seat stays were equivalent to KL and the chainstays, seat tube and top tube were equivalent to SL, while the down tube was equivalent to SP. Due to the teardrop shapes the resulting frames weighed more than SL, but had less strength. The rear triangles in particular had a reputation for being whippy, due to the thin seat stays. However, this was considered acceptable given the intended TT use and aerodynamic advantages. Of particular note, the seat tube came in two versions.

One with a standard round top end, to accept a normal seat post and another which carried the teardrop section right to the top, requiring a teardrop section seatpost. If you have the latter, you may have some difficulty finding a seatpost, unless it is being provided with the frame. Campagnolo did not have an aero group at the time and the Italian farme builders did not want to miss out on the aero bandwagon, in the event it turned out to be the latest craze. It comes in a different shape on different places on the tubes.

A wide selection of tube thicknesses and diameters allowed GENIUS tubing to be used in many different types of frame types.

The MAX seat tube is also ovalized and shaped from a The 37mm axis was oriented with the long axis of the BB shell. The chainstays are 36mm tall and When you consider these are steel, they're monsters! The real MAX top tube is based on a Engine cc. Transmission Description Manual.
