looks crashed to me... wait for a few opinions though.
While you wait, feast your eyes on this ancient freddie grubb tandem with an immense asking price;

just moved to sydney so looking for a beater until my bike is shipped over.. was looking at this, but do people think that the fork has been crashed?
I was thinking so, but couldn't tell.. Let me know what you reckon, cheers
That bikes rubbish even if it isn't crashed. Steel wheels, stem, bars, cranks etc. It'll be really heavy, the brakes will barely work, and its obviously prone to bending.
Try and find something better.

Hi there, I am a cycling newbie and fell into this site thanks to my wheel search. Basically, some scrote decided to steal my Raleigh Misty's wheels (I think they are a 27"). Cut through my locks and everything. Very annoying. But that's London for you. I noticed that this is an Ebay finds area, and assume you must all be bike part collectors. So I must ask you, does anyone know where I can get a pair of 27" alloys for said Misty. Preferably with tyres and cheaper than the £80 I was quoted. I only bought her for £100 and am a poor student who is missing her vital, and beautiful transport. mourns She used to get so many compliments too. If this is in the wrong thread I wholly apologise, if you could point me in the right direction that would be amazing.

Bad luck about your wheels.
The Classified section here is excellent for second hand bargains. At the moment hilarystone has some 27" wheels for sale here;

They might fit the bill. Do you run the bike with gears or is it a singlespeed?

Depending on the brakes you've got (need long / extra long reach calipers) you can run 700c wheels on that (I've done this on two frames). A cheap pair of those + new brakes (sjs sell some very long reach calipers) may even be less than £80 if money is a big issue.
I have some long reach shimano calipers (59mm I think) which I used to do this and which worked for the first frame. The second needed the extra long reach ones from SJS.
I'll try to remember how much I paid for them but they can probably go for cheap if you need them (PM me).

This looks TOO cheap...
check his feedback, he seem to be selling good and genuine stuff.

^I wanted one of those.. Contacted the seller on saturday if he had on in my size, he had one, just another batch arrived.. I expressed my interest, as he stated I should've if I wanted it.. After that, total silence.. He listed them, I wanted to buy it, but couldn't because apparently he only shipped to the UK (I'm in the Netherlands).. Asked a question, again, and again.. No response whatsoever.. My size has now sold and I am disappoint.. Just a reply with a simple "No" would've sufficed, now he just is a dick in my book..

That seller really is stupid.. With fork it sold for 190 , relisted, 210, relisted, yesterday 165, takes out the forks and BIN it 120.. He must've lost a lot of cash buying all those people off..
Have to say I'd be all over it if the TT was a wee bit shorter..
i dont think its the same frame. look at his history he has sold and got feedback from person that received the frame. he has access to lots of pinarello frames.
he sold 2 for £110 on monday.
the guy that paid £204 with fork left him this comment:
Nice, fast shipping, Thanks A++++++++++++ :) !
Thought the same 2 pages back, but loafheads pointed me out to the feedback.. They're different sizes, so hardly the same frame! ;) The seller said to me had a batch arriving, he listed about 6 frames sunday afternoon, including the 55 cm -my size- one.. I'm still a bit sad tbh..
