Well... I found a s-works stumpjumper and the gentleman wanted to trade for a cyclocross bike. It worked out and I got an amazing bike AND got to keep the fixed.

I also searched for a few years for a car part and found the exact ($1,200) unit, for $100 and made it to the seller before everyone else (a plethora)

I think that a simple, "Wow, nice score bud, glad to see that it makes you happy" would have been much classier, but you took the high road. Nose up!
That is a great bike! And for the money, you probably could not have done better. BTW, I noticed it has GEAX tires. What model? Anything by GEAX are among my favorite tires.
