Litespeed Tachyon bike review

Litespeed produced the Tachyon bike in 2005 and can be classified as a Road bicycle.
Tachyon bike is available in many sizes such as 51cm (centimeters), 53cm (centimeters), 55cm (centimeters), 57cm (centimeters) and 59cm (centimeters).
Litespeed Road Tachyon can be found in one single color which is Polished.
This bike is equiped with 700 x 23c Vittoria Rubino Pro tires while the rims are manufactured by FSA RD 80. Litespeed equiped this exact model with Shimano 105 Dual Pivot brakes, Dia-Compe 188 levers braking system and Front: FSA RD-80, Rear: FSA RD-80 hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Litespeed used 3Al/2.5V titanium material for the frame. Vision high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Tachyon to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Vision Size More.
For the smoothest biking experience FSA Energy, 39/53 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-HG73 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Litespeed, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Dura-Ace bar-end gear shift levers.
