Stolen... right?

Probably.

To be fair, if he is telling the truth the thieves did really fucking well!

if he was the thief then he probably was at work doing the stripping...

Since I'm at home sick and bored on a friday night I texted him and he replied (from a different number)

"hello mate u txt me on my ather fone i stil gt the langster frame"

Wasn't someone else mentioning a Langster being stripped on another thread?

oh yeah... just found the thread... they reckoned the frame had been locked up outside getting slowly stripped for over 6 weeks!

Nice price too. WTF!?

well these are quite rare, especially the early ones. $7 k is maybe a bit pricy but i guess with the current track bike craze you won't get one much cheaper at least not on the bay

Ripe for an Aerospoke too!

indeed and ditch the ugly bars and put some forking risers on

this ones nicer btw.

the dude's got quite a few of these old shitty things

Brilliant! What plans do you have for that?

48h hubs.
Deep Vs
2x risers.....
he jokes.

except about the 48h hubs.

or just a hilarious going for jaunts bike, for me and the gf, with brakes and shit, which will have to live in the garden...
and critical mass and stuff.
and when I'm bored I'll donate it to VCL to boost the disabled cycling programme- or something like that.

I doubt you'd ever get bored of it, it'll be a hoot! We should lobby the VCL to allow tandem track sprinting at HH so you can use it there too.
