Rossin track bike NOS 1984 Columbus steel 55cm

lol. it gets better.

WTF?

Sorry but you have had a new arsehole torn out of your wallet.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

£320 for the Ambrosio rims, Phil Wood hubs and DT Swiss spokes

that's pretty much a normal price for a wheelset, whether the frame, they tend to be a bit of a mark-up since there's a lots of people who are willing to pay that much for an old frame.

Excuse me, I'm gonna hurl up.

Spent £1700 all in.

ooof.... the bike you could've got for half that....

WABOC!

This

Go back to BLB and demand your money back.

Show them this thread and the damage it will do to their reputation if they do not address the issue.

Start a thread mentioning this and there are some other BLB horror stories that wil come out.

is good advice.

One tiny saving grace; it was part paid for by 'Cyclescheme'.

fucking hell!
shit!
thats absolutely ridiculous.

/sniff sniff

Just keep it and enjoy it, you'll never recoup 1/6th of what you laid out.

Look at the terms of the cyclescheme

You have to pay more at the end to keep it.

you can't spend over a grand by using the voucher and adding the rest as cash on cyclescheme, at least the taxman doesn't let you, something isn't right here, I smell troll too I think

Jesus fucking christ.

This cannot be for real, you are seriously retarded if you dropped £1700 on that build

supportive stuff

^ bras?

To be fair, are we really that surprised? are we actually shocked that BLB sell second hand/NOS frame for that much?

Are we again, surprised by how many people are willing to pay that much for a bicycle?

my tax is partly subsidising the cost of that bike.
i don't mind a bit.
