Brooklyn Machine Works

I can almost guarantee that it went to a good home.

The point is that I'd have happily covered ALL fees, but wasn't even given that as an option.

Still, the new owner will adore it almost as much as I would've.

@bodieanddoyle: I'm registering that clown as a bad trader...

I waited for this. Let's take a closer, but brief look at the drama. No one likes to be called a clown. It is just rude.

User bodieanddoyle offered me money via bank transfer. Not PayPal what I asked and what I prefer, because it is usually quicker. The reason why I wanted money as quick as possible is that I had another frame on my sight and wanted to buy it. Why would I sell my Gangsta? To have money? No, the sale was for the new bike, of course.

bodieanddoyle also said that I shouldn't send the bike where (s)he is, because it's not safe somehow. After this I asked where I should send the bike instead. This information gave me a feeling that the whole process could turn more complicated than I wanted.

On this point I said that bank transfer is ok (since bodieanddoyle was the only buyer and quickest possible way to sell this bike). I can't remember if I asked about the posting on this point or not. Six minutes after this another user from here offered me money via PayPal and was ready to pay immediately and also paid immediately. I saw money on my PayPal account after 5 minutes and bought new frame in 30 minutes.

I understand how pissed of bodieanddoyle is. Gangsta Tracks are great, wanted and beloved frames and it eats you inside if the possibility of owning it slips out of your hands. I'm sorry that this made you feel bad. As a seller I just decided to act this way and made decision that was best for me.

Fair enough. What frame did you get to replace the Gangsta?

exactly, bit much

Soooo, when do we get to find out who this lucky new owner is..??

^^ also this..?

I'll offer my v1 size 50 (largest size) to the forum for £650. If no interest it's going on the bay. To avoid any confusion cash and london collection is king!

This would be ideal size for @swedeee

dom just text me, but im out the country for another 2 weeks and i would need to shift my vivalo ASAP! gutted :-(

Shame swedeee.

@bodieanddoyle, can you make this fit? I'd be happy to collect and ship it to you.

@jv, what size track frame do you normally ride?

So because I asked you to send it to send it somewhere else other than where I live, I'm not trustworthy?

Ask anyone here whether or not I'm trustworthy - seriously.

A 56 but I like 'em small. I am 6'2" with a 32" inseam if thats any help. It's the biggest one they made, bigger than the V2 long. I would direct you to the online geo chart but it's up the creek and was wrong anyway if I remember right. I'll put some pics up later

It's cool @Dom - don't worry about it. These just aren't meant for me.

It's the biggest one they made, bigger than the V2 long.

Yeah, I remember them measurements being big!

Peace, I didn't say you wouldn't be trustworthy. I said with you, things would have been slower (and more complicated). It wasn't personal and I didn't mean to insult you any way. If you ever come to Helsinki, I'll buy you a beer.

I bought Ono, but started immediately think it could be too short for me. So let's see.. Nothing like Gangsta, but that's ok. It's nice to try different bikes.

Fair play - sometimes the heat and humidity gets to me I guess.

Good luck with your new build and if you manage to get yourself over to Dubai then I'll buy you a jar or five.

I'll be happy to help if need be man, not sure how, but I'm in town atm etc. so if you need...

you da best. maybe. tryna work some shit out. probably easier if i come back and someone buys my bb17 and/or vivalo

Swedee neede brooklynn
