has been trying to sell his 520 here for that insane price for several months now, he's come down maybe $50 since he first posted it. He seems to think his ad copy will sell the bike, several CL price police have called him out but he's pretty oblivious. You can see the clamp-ons on his bike:
With fenders, rack, panniers and trainer included, I don't think that is that outrageous of a price. I paid $200 for my 1988 520, 2 years ago. By the time I got through putting on fenders, rack, Brooks saddle, mtb crankset, new tires and cables, I spent more than $700. Throw in a trainer and my cost was around $1000. 2 years ago, this would have sold in a day around Austin.
