  • Yep, seller said he had a 'minor spill' but the fork cracked

    Er. Yeah. Of course. Or a head on impact in to a blunt object. What could go wrong?

    Sounds like a total waste of time. And where's the original headset?!

    I'm just pissed that you'd burn time on something like this when it could be better spent writing satirical internet funnies

  • Dunno man, not the most comprehensive pics but looks clean enough? That's a mighty fillet where the headtube meets the downtube too and I've seen forks crack from someone falling over at the lights when they've not clipped out. Headset was lost when he stripped the bike apparently, he's got about 800 feedback so don't think he's a total chancer but you never know. Nothing ventured nothing gained anyway-I got the frame and cranks for a bargainous £225 and firing it back for a refund will be easy if it's fucked.

    And I hear you with the blog-best intentions and all that but I'm trying to find work atm and it's sucking the life out of me :(

  • he's got about 800 feedback so don't think he's a total chancer but you never know.

    Insurance write off or possibly stolen I'd imagine. But then I don't know what other stuff he's been selling. Those aren't the original cranks that came with that frame, so at some point someone would have known what they were doing with that bike, but someone who fits old SLs isn't the kind of person who loses headsets.
