This one's just pure gold all around. He starts right off the bat by informing you that a 52cm bike will fit riders who are 6 ft tall. Next is my favorite part of the ad, "This bike was to costly to build so it was opted out for the carbon plastic cheap to make type." He then states that the "Technuim" frame is "much like the armor plates on a M1A1 Tank", which is especially fun because the Technium road bikes were not exactly known for their longevity or durability. Then you have the "over 300 bucks each" "marva" rims, and the cheap twelve dollar Kendas that "cost well over $60 bucks". Finally, after making your way through the whole wall of barely comprehensible babble, you get to the end and realize that this guy actually runs a business. Unbelievable.

Same guy is trying to sell a LeTour with a bent fork for $300.
