Someone offered me one of these in my size for $150, with a few parts on it. The only bad thing is that the paint scheme does absolutely nothing for me. It's dark purple and lavender with pinkish graphics. It's in really good shape, so I would hate to paint it. Am I being too picky?,,,,BD



He also has a Trek 750 which would probably be more my speed(no pun intended, lol)

Haha, but seriously, I am always on the look out to upgrade my and my girlfriend's lugged touring frames. I am currently on a mission for a 50cm frame for her. My point is that I am not picky about colour, if I were you I'd take it because it's a sweet frame and your size.

61 cm. Well, trying to build my le tour frame at the moment, which is going to be a custom color, custom rear hub, the whole deal. $150 for a frame and a couple of parts, is more than I have in that project so far, including the frame, lol. Plus I would feel like an a$$ repainting the Koga.,,,,BD
