Is that a colnago?

Gonna say no. Don't quote me on it though.

I say tactic. I think I meant 'deal', or something. Typing on my phone and not concentrating!

fair enough, whats that frame worth? its just road geo with track ends + gear hanger? The paint it well battered as well.

Probably about right with the price, it's a TT frame, innit.
He does have some cheap stuff, not much of it's nice, but some cheap parts occasionally. I think he's shooting himself in the foot by not posting, is all!

He keeps popping up in saved searches on eBay and filling me with hope, which is then dashed.

Ray was bemused that, after 2 weeks of Gumtree tumbleweed, he recently had 3+ people call within hours kind of offering to buy it unseen.
Helps to spell names correctly, isn't it?

Caller One tonight got a bargain, I'll be bound. Come rub in some salt, haha!

I'd second that, although there are no shots of the seat stays or the bottom bracket: which means they don't have a clue, or they do and are concealing the proof it's a fake.

And what the fuck does "All the bikes are fully serviced and test ride by our professional machine before display for sale. " mean?

There's something about those lugs that doesn't look right. Nice frame probably, but nothing screams 'nag.

Ask for a shot of the BB shell, I guess.

Apart from anything else, I wouldn't splash £500 on an outfit whose main outlet is Gumtree.

I'm sure he's a nice guy, I'm just annoyed that I can't get any of his bargains.
Seems silly to sell stuff that would sell for lots more if he'd post. I'm sure someone who has that many bikes and parts could source a bike box.
It's also less time consuming to pop to the post office than have someone round your house, isn't it?

I'm pretty sure this chap is on here...cant quite recall the username (maybe search his ebay username on the forum search)

mad crazy track frame

I don't agree! £50 can get you a lot more than that!

"Gets a lot of looks". No shit.
Chuckling to myself imagining this being ridden on the road, with the rider thinking 'woah, these people are all staring! Their laughter tells me they're jealous! I am AWESOME'.

Probably rescuable.

Lighter than my late 70's Peugeot ,

Located in Mulhouse, France

Been there a few times; the pricing doesn't surprise me.

£350 with 3 hours to go and no bidders

Looks like its built for 27" wheels. Still a nice find.

that ambrosio x logos wheel itself is fixed/free, worth half of the total price at least.

I don't know, but a good start would be not bringing it to others attention in the Ebay finds thread.
