Ok big spenders, some guy's tricked out magnesium Paketa, ~medium, is on ebay, buy it now for $8500 which still looks like a screaming deal considering the package. Its fun for me to dream, but maybe someone else on the forum is ready to pull the trigger on that bad boy.

You either like it or dislike it and I don't like it. Very low rear triangle so you end up sitting on a looong seat post.... unless you are 8 years old. The calfee's seem to have good/more traditional geometry for a light weight lateral free frame.

My guess is that it will not reach 6K.... wonder what the reserve price is?

The buy-it now offer w/roof rack system makes this one hell of a deal for anyone in the market for this type of a tandem. The average consumer is looking at between $3k - $4k in components on top of frame and wheels to replicate depending on what kind of discounts or deals you can find.

If it fits . . . grab it. One heck of a price, one heck of a lightweight Magnesium tandem!
