I know you're all Merckx nuts, so:
Somebody has been pissing about with it to fit a triple, but you simply can't argue with Chorus 8sp Ergo levers and a panto stem. You simply can't.
Too bad oiy 'int a midget, sorry, little person..

This guy continues to annoy the hell out of me.
Last week purchased on Markplaats, a week later on Ebay for close to 4 times as much:
He does this every time, already sold around 50 bikes this way...

Got to ask yourself why they're not fetching more in the first place.
Hard to blame somebody for making a living off eBay.
Of course not, but making a killing is another matter.
They're fetching quite ok in the first place, but not everyone in Holland is capable to sell through Ebay (and reach people who're willing to pay top (or crazy) money - like a lot of wealthy Americans, it seems.)
A lot of these bikes are bought from older people who sell their classical bike, their pride and joy, not fully knowing how much it can command. And often they assume it will go to a fellow enthousiast, not a reseller who makes a quick & big buck.
I'd rather see it go that route. Or through someone who's passionate about bikes, like the resellers on this forum.

That's clever.
Stupid MP sellers.
Stupid Ebay buyers.Still better than e.g. AvR from Heeswijk-Dinther and " Frank van Limpt, R. Munsters or C.L.M. van Berlo"

dodgy?
The seller is Hong Kong based and has zero feedback.
I'd probably give it a miss.

its going to take some work to straighten out those chainstays unless its just the angle of the picture but they look a bit bent.
different flavour
ideal for a belt drive conversion? stays are bolt on, bent or not.

I'm tempted to buy this for it's comedy value alone. Note the front suspension.

I think the guy's a total dick for covering up that nice paint job.
fify.imho, over painting classic paint with hipster colour puke is only ok if the paint is fucked, and even then its not ok. see above. ^
