😢 - why so soon!

Why so pricey?!

... yeah I was thinking that slightly, still very nice but you could get something custom for that?

Whoa... Good luck, some yuppie will pull the trigger no doubt.

Is this a joke? It’s a joke, right? I don’t get it...

Great looking build!

Excellent bike, very cool! Unless the eBay listing is a troll it's overpriced by about £3,500.

Oof. Missed a trick, there.

Haaa... yeah about that.

Very optimistic. Had a moment where I was like, well, if someone might be willing to pay that for it, then I'd let them.

In absolutely no rush to sell.

Coronatax, though. ;)

I'll bite - too much personal attachment / monetary expense to part ways with it for anywhere close to £700.

Why sell it in the first place?

Well... I'm toying with the idea of moving to Portugal before (actual) Brexit. It's unlikely I'd be able to take everything with me.

Haha LFGSS is watching better be careful!

yeah but take this, leave something else!

fuck it, ride there.

I admire the cheek - Its a very lovely build - I recon you'd be able to shift it for 800 with the nice pics - I've been waiting for a similar frame in my size to pop up so I can do exactly the same thing.

Thanks - I do like it, and I'm actually kind of surprised how nicely it rides. Feared it being a bit of a lump.

Obviously had a moment of exaggerated egoism with pie-in-the-sky pricing

Very nice! What DT cable stops are you using? Never seen ones like that before.

They're just the ones that were on it - can't see a manufacturer's mark on there.

Got round to putting some guards on... just in time for summer.
