" These are not/This is not* the droids/Masi* we are looking for, move along now" >>>>>>>

(If the price stays low worth it for the Dura Ace if your the type to buy a bike because of the parts and not the frame.)

Does that mean you bid on the SIDIs?

yes

Seriously though I'm around UK 11.5 and in the market for some shoes, handy they come with SPDs.

Me too.

Why didn't you BIN?

How about you let me buy them and I'll give you the SPDs?

To get them for <£BIN, sorry I don't need the cleats unless I get the shoes.
You seem to reallly want them I feel bad now :(

It's a re although if it stays at £99 it'd be an incredible bargain

Fair enough, I thought the BIN was pretty reasonable though. Don't feel bad, it's a dog-eat-dog world out there. But if I get them I could sell you my ones of these:

But this is close to me and will definitely be sticking some bids in. Anyone else?

Haha I own these exact shoes, these are great for commuting etc but not really stiff enough for fast riding.
Tbf if it approaches the BIN price I wouldn't be able to justify so game on man!

The bike has been sold (seller told me this), but the auction still runs..
Do i see those Mavic rims laced on sheriff stars?

It was on here for a similar amount, but the seller had been smoking his socks and wanted a unrealistic figure. We're not stupid - those fuckers fall to bits because they were glued together.

Actually, they were "bonded". Not sure what the difference is, but the seller will inform you that bonding is stronger than glueing.

Thanks for your amazing speech.
I'm just trying to improve myself that no body needs this frame and i would be happy to keep this frame.

Made using EXACTLY the same method...

I had a Comete when I was about 15.

I knew that it had been "bonded" and wasn't surprised that there was some creaking after I'd had it for a while. I didn't think anything of it when the mysterious creaking ceased whilst out on a ride one afternoon.

A couple of weeks later, whilst I was tail-gating a bus, the downtube decided to part company from the bottom bracket shell and the whole thing fell in half. It was at this point I was forced to use my knees as brakes. As I walked in through the front door at Wankworth Manor (my parents gaff) with blood pissing out of my knees, elbows and chin my mother was rather aghast at the fact that I was really pissed off because my bike was in two pieces.

So, whilst I would recommend owning one if you want to hang it on a wall, riding something that age would require a concrete sphincter.

what a bargain! why i just saw it now! :-(

Your experience with your COMET makes me feel sorry for you.
But another thing that makes me sorry for you is that you think that your COMET has any resemblance with a track purposed frame.
This was built for track riders with legs bigger than two of your bleeding legs and face combined.
I agree it's not built for cobblestone streets and jumping off things, but what track frame is?
