Trek OCLV Carbon Road Bikes

Good day all, 

 

I am new to this site so I am hoping my message will reach the correct crowd. From 2000 to 2004 I was big into the road cycling scene... 

 

I had a couple of road bikes during this period but there were two that stand out for me. Due to me being a nostalgic person I was wondering if someone might still have some old Trek road bike frames gathering dust in a garage somewhere. 

 

I am specifically looking for the 2000 and 2002 Trek OCLV 5200 Postal Service frames. I will attach some pictures of them as well. If anyone has these bikes/frames available or know of someone who has please let me know. 

 

Thank you, Dewald.

Check the classifieds. They're right there:

Maybe not the postal colourway, but the frame is the same.

And Cliff at Cycle Art can make it look like that

20 years later and still a damn fine looking frame. No wonder Lance was so good.

It is, it's just heavy. Even for the time it was heavy. A couple of my teammates had them back then.

geez you must have had some light bikes back in the day

 

I rode this dressed in Campy and it weighed 7.7kgs - not particularly light wheels, steel bottle cages etc

 

I just sold it last week in its original guise weighing 8.8 

 

This was a 58 frame built in 1999

 

This was very difficult to let go but quite nicely went off to 2 good homes - one hubber wanted the groupset as he already had the frame and the other guy wanted the frame

 

Such a comfortable bike

These honestly looks so much nicer than modern Treks for me.

This does look good. For me, not long after this, TREK went a bit boring(may have been the whole Lance fan phase) but then when they bought out the new Madone and the supercaliber I starting drooling again.

Man I miss my Rolf Vector Pro wheels!  They were just the best wheels that were ever made in my opinion.  That was before I got fat and started mountain biking...

Good old days when different brands had their own flair and charm. Nowadays every aero bike looks the same regardless of brand. Such a shame!
