Hi all,

I'm in the process of buying a CX bike and found this one for sale

the guy selling says it's a crossbow, but i never seen one with this paintjob, can anyone confirm it is a crossbow, or tell me how to check?

many thanks,
Jens

just because you cant find a picture of another crossbow does not mean that ^ frame is not a crossbow. I think it is.

I have Specialzed Langster and you will never find the same anywhere. But it is Specialized Langster. The guy worked in LBS and purchased as a frameset, with promotionol color.
My wife used to have bike with promotional color too... it was unique too...

It happens sometimes with colors of frames.
