Real talk tho. Who is this respected seller?
-
• #83
Is this still available?

I will take this frame. I have some Paul brakes to hand which I will get brazed on as an after market improvement. Winston will build this.

Well none of them were beating a path to my door when I was selling a jaw droppingly beautiful Ron Cooper frame that was very well described and photographed! Perhaps they instinctively knew I am a Marxist and buying from me would contaminate their neoliberal bourgeois capitalist so called souls!

That's the thing, you should have thrown some road grit at it, uploaded the pictures in 400x300px sizes, mumbled something about someone famous possibly having looked at it once, and then asked for 8.5k.
Btw I was personally tempted by that frame, but it was both the wrong size, and the tyre clearance really is an issue for me. (That's the one you meant, right?)

LOL!
£150,000 for a cycling collab shirt. Unbelievable.....

• #90
Before the last relisting, it was actually a, uh, totally reasonable £10k...

yep I saw that frame, nice, just not a big enough brand. I recently listed Trevor Jarvis and Steve Goff lo pro frames on there, £175 each, Columbus Max forks etc, real quality, and they got no attention at all for weeks. English frames just don’t cut it financially, unless you have a Hetchins, and they all go to men in their 60s reliving their youth. That age group that have kept the English market alive have now stopped buying as retirement looms, next year will see another year of price drops for 70s Italian too, younger buyers want younger frames,groupsets and big brands

Who is this collector that we didn't recognise? What's his name?

If you wrote poetry you would have found out by now and tell us rather then knock your head against the wall with inanities.

you did say ‘no one really cares though ‘ at the beginning of this post ?
-
• #98
Ooooh you rotten cocktease.
Nobody cares whether he is or isn't "respected", but if you tell me his name, maybe I can Google the bloke to find out myself.

I can only assume he was trying to reach the City Boy market , as so bankers frequent this site from behind their trading desks
To be fair I have worked on a trading floor, but it was a while ago, so steel may have gone up from $300 per tonne?

he’s just a nice bloke, not too good with a Camera, or seemingly advertising stuff. The user name ? , here’s a clue; in the 90s a certain authority banned the use of lo pro frames, 26” and 24” front wheels, lumbare saddles etc and it changed the face of Pro cycling. Collectors of these bikes are members of a forum called ........., as the bike has been advertised on numerable sites, it shouldn’t be that difficult . Like I said, itsall in the chase. By the way, here’s another for those shocked by his starting price

wow, I believe this was ridden by eddy merckx when he was 1.5 years old? based purely on the fact I just pulled that fact out my arse. so I would like to start bidding at $82,000 UGD
