Excellent condition! This was named Outdoor Magazine's coveted "Road Bike Gear of the Year" in 2007 (https://offerup.co/faYXKzQFnY?$deeplink_path=/redirect/).  Barely used and very low mileage (~600 miles) - only ridden twice in the last 3 years. Upgraded in 2018 with Dura-Ace compact crank and carbon aerobars. Bicycle Blue Book lists value with my upgrades approximately $1,400. I'll even throw in a stationary bike trainer for indoor training. Here is a review link on the RT700: https://offerup.co/faYXKzQFnY?$deeplink_path=/redirect/ Great starter racing bike, training bike or 2nd bike for triathletes.  Very stiff and light (bike is less than17 pounds) makes this a super fast and responsive ride!  All original Shimano Dura Ace components.  Kestrel Carbon frame, Kestrel Carbon aero seat post, FSA K Force Carbon handle bars, Ritchey WCS Carbon stem, FSA SLK Carbon crank set, Shimano Dura-Ace shifters, breaks, cassette, front and rear derailleur, Carbon Stryke Ironman aero bars, Selle Italia saddle, and Dura-Ace wheels. Manufacturers Description: "Built with Kestrel's 20 years of carbon knowledge, the RT 700 is a blazing fast road rocket with speed to spare. Its aerodynamic monocoque carbon frame features internal cable routing, wind-cheating tube shapes, and a reinforced bottom bracket and chainstays so all your effort rockets you forward. Up front, Kestrel's carbon fork was co-engineered with the frame for a perfectly balanced ride. Plus, Shimano's world-class Dura-Ace components and wheels provide pro-level function, and the carbon bars, seatpost and Selle Italia saddle mean you'll ride all day in comfort."
