For Sale: HP Velotechnik Grasshopper with underseat steering

Model is illustrated here. HP Velotechnik Grasshopper Description

Bike is the non-folding Grasshopper model. It has underseat steering (which I love and recommend), but has potential to be converted to overseat steering. It has the upgraded airflow seat cushion (good for summer) on the BodyLink seat, a very smooth Shimano 14 speed derailer (2 front, 7 rear). The rear suspension and shock absorbing Meks carbon fiber forks make for a very comfortable ride.

It comes with extra front stalk for mounting speedometer/odometer/lights. Includes rear equipment rack. Includes Velotechnik front/rear fenders, but they have never been mounted on the bike (not shown in picture.) Color is steel blue. I rode this bike for about 2 months of commuting, 10 miles/day (for total of perhaps 500 miles?) Bike is in excellent condition.

$1800 or best offer. Call (503) 249-2000 (home phone) or e-mail me at the address shown in the photograph.
