Two lovely colnagos in a week Mr Zieleman? You are spoiling us rotten sir. Thank you :)

Mega dint, surely worth getting it repaired though

Do you really think so considering the following:
A: It's possible that it can't be repaired (no-one knows for sure)
B:Tho OP hasn't had it repaired already
C:The price
D:The competition (see fillet brazed Roberts above)
E: Pretty much all of the sound comments above.

I wish you luck my friend

that frame is fucked son.
I offer a £5

Proper fucked..

The top tube has been hit so hard from underneath it has bent the whole top tube upwards. You can see the curvature with your eye in the last but one picture - put a straight edge on it.

I'm not bothered who buys it but whoever does, please sell me the pedals. Go on,you now you want to :)

Just as I was thinking I could do with a prime slice of Italian steel up pops this beauty.
I don't suppose you're doing a "buy now, pay in 2012" offer on it by any chance?? ;)

All the best with the sale, but I don't think you'll need any luck with this one mate.

Btw, I'm totally loving the TVT.

Fair do's - so much good comes from this place that it really pisses me off to see it abused

However, trying to put a positive spin on all this whole situation, look how quickly everyone has rallied round to flush this little fucker out AND give him plenty of opprtunities to right his wrongs before involving the cops. That's a healthy community in my book, and one that I'm proud to be a part of.

I hope for those he's shafted that there's a resolution very soon.

Did you tackle the seller about this? What kind of response did you get?
Ok, so you trusted the seller which is no bad thing, but just because you didn't ask specific questions doesn't really give them the right to sell you a knackered frame. At least, not in the spirit of things any way.
I guess it does serve to remind us all that there will always be chancers out there happy to screw good people over.

Harsh, but good advice and lesson learned I guess...

Honesty is always the best policy- especially amongst LFG folk. I hope you get some pleasure from the frame but go careful!

that is well expensive for a frame with so many problems but good luck with the sale

I can appreciate that you got ripped off with a poor frame, that sucks, but I think it's a bit much to expect to others to help you recoup even some of what you have lost. What you have here is an unusable/dangerous frame until the cracked seat tube/lug joint is fixed at the very least. Until then it's scrap.

Like a classic car, a shiny coat of paint does not guarantee that underneath it's not a death trap.

Your honesty is appreciated though, good luck.

The pinnacle of modern crank aesthetics.

Thoroughbred steel bargain. I need more money. :)

lucky guy...

Yes I am!
Thanks Zieleman

Dibs innit, PM on it's way later this evening sir

Genius design!

I mean, now you can cycle AND get fit at the same time. Who would have ever thought that was possible?

Must go, I have a cross-trainer to put some wheels on...

It's worth noting that a lot of companies running vans have trackers installed in them these days for insurance purposes. If they do, the driver concerned will be nailed with sattelite precision. That's if kharma hasn't already made his vehicle spontaneously flip over and violently burst into flames... ;)

Hope you feel better soon mate.

This would look ace with my Wonder Woman outfit

sorry they have been sold aswell as the pedals (even thought im still waiting for the dude to tell me his address)

You can have my address to send them if you like? ;)

If it wasn't for a simple cashflow issue I would have taken this beauty off your hands by now. I have a lovely set of Dura Ace 7402 that I think this frame would wear rather nicely. If it's still about when I've managed to shift some of my own stuff, I can promise you I'll be in touch.

Now, I must stop looking at this thread until I can buy. I am only torturing myself :(
PS Are you in a desperate hurry to sell?

well 'hey you guys' can all suck my dick im not some fucking bike anorach that sits on their computer wanking over this website and the bikes on it, fucking 'bike porn' why dont you fucking wasters grow up and buy something with an engine fucking.

Is that Jeremy Clarkson?
