Now heading into its 3rd year of being listed on Chicago CL, the price on this Kalkoff has gone up! I'm pretty sure it was listed at $450 for the last 2 years.

This Gardin has been listed and re-listed for close to 3 years now too and always in the $800 range. He puts it up once a week or so.

This guy is so freaking brutal, i don't want to see his ad ever again, i wish craiglist had a filter or block option where you don't have to see someone's posts over and over.

Fixed/Free Artist Bike
Custom powder coated schwinn world sport 56cm frame, this bike was maticuliously painted this way mind you this is not spray paint. It was baked with a white base then sprayed with different colors then baked again. Everything on the bike is new except the stem. The wheels,tires,tubes,bottom bracket, bars,grips,chain, and crank are all new. I'm asking $300 great bike ready to ride please call or text
