I know there are some Klein lovers in NorCal BF.

I just saw this one on Craigslist. I am not the seller. The paint job is pretty cool.

That's really cool.

Not sure what the deal with the dropouts is, but hey, it's different. :)

Sort of off subject here but does anyone know where you can buy the Klein inner cable sleeves ?

That's what I thought, but then I thought "Good thing it's not my size, or I'd be out $500" :lol:

That was up a few weeks ago too, I don't remember if he lowered the price since then.

The "inner cable" sleeves are only for routing the cables - once you got them in, you take the sleeves back out.

On the Klein Attitudes and Adroit pre-Trek, the sleeves stays in and is used to route the cable after exiting the frame, for both the brake and FD/RD cables. Not sure about other models.

If only the bike for sale was was a pre-Trek model (before 1996).

I apologize for not explicitly saying I only know about the road bikes.

I LOVE Klein road bikes, I personally have a Quantum myself. I actually had it up for sale on both sacramento and sf craigslist, had a few contacts for it but was just too stubborn to give it to someone who just wanted a bike and didn't care if it was a Klein.
Now I think I'll keep it, I mean the serial number is 0007 and all, maybe it'll be a collectors item in the future.

DiabloScott, I ran across your site awhile back...helped me out a lot! thanks!
