This frame set had about 1,500 miles on it prior to being signed by Lance.  It was diligently maintained while in use, was never crashed or dropped, and remains in excellent condition.  The opportunity to have it signed was all too rare, so once signed, the frame set was retired from use and carefully boxed for safekeeping.     Included in sale: ·         2008 Trek Madone 6.9 54cm Frame Signed by Lance Armstrong ·         Race XXX Fork ·         Race XXX Lite 90mm Stem ·         Seat Mast This frame alone without the signature is valued at $5,000.
