Hi there! I'm pretty new to this, although I've ridden a few bikes in my life. I just missed an ebay auction what seemed to be a ridiculously cheap deal.

I just wanted to ask someone who's got some experience whether this was a deal of a lifetime or I really didn't miss anything? Take a look at this Holdsworth Cyclone 1950s bike, that was repainted and had new aftermarket parts fitted on to it - Holdsworth Cyclone 1950s [link]: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Holdsworth-Retro-Vintage-1950s-Road-Bicycle-Fixie-Single-Speed-/121117304509?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEDWX%3AIT&nma=true&si=XunwcPubCJysLP3f3Q5d2FNlCsQ%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

I did some math and the parts(certainly not the best out there) accounted for maybe half or more of the price it was sold for (£275).

Thanks for your help!

Best,

Kris

Seems about the money I would expect something like that to go for really!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
