eBay and Craigslist finds

want to sell yours?

I could, if the price was right, but since I'm not in UK, high shipping charges make it not worth it really.

NOS virginity?

repped, fucking LOLOLOL

track ends look like campag ones. And no

Do people know how ROUGH Campag Pista dropouts actually look like?
Pieces of shit. Frame builders have to bend, stamp, cut, file them down before building the frame or afterwards. That's whay they always look different.

18H Suntour hub, only a tenner, seller has quite a few

I sent this listing to a friend as an example of the style of bike she should get (I'm trying to get my hot female friends into cycling because there aren't enough hot girls on bikes IMO)

Now she wants to get that exact bike from that seller...but I'm wondering if a custom made Raleigh in any colour scheme you like for £280 is pretty suspicious?

Is this a scam? Will it be shoddily made with crap parts? The listing title doesn't exactly fill me with confidence, although it is aimed at fashion-conscious girls rather than bike people.

For those of tiny size - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GRAHAM-WEIGH-SLX-FRAME-FORK-18-RUBY-RED-CHROME-/190518175189?pt=UK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR&hash=item2c5bc4a5d5#ht_500wt_1156

^^ she will barely jump any curbs on that, so as long as it's put together well (nothing foffa-stylah) it should be alrigh

Maybe see if they'd take £250 inc. postage. Pay with Paypal to get some sort of cover in case it goes wrong at all.

Bikes shown look nice, but I'd prefer a better front caliper than that.

Scoot, the seller does have a facebook page -

There's a gallery there of other work done.

Oh that facebook page is filled with niceness! Seems pretty legit then. I just wanted to be sure as ebay is full of crooks and it seemed too good to be true.

Flat pedals, 1 brake... Just sayin'

;-)

What was that?

hoser

Anyone have any thoughts on this wheelset? Seem to good to be true.

those wheels are available everywhere. Heavy, shit and ugly, but cheap.

I'll make sure she asks for two brakes :) I'll probably give her my old clips too, just because it's nicer to ride with them even on a single speed. She'll be a pro in no time.

Yes, more hot girls on bikes! It is coming up to summer after all.
