^ Looks like he got going a little too fast one time and the brakes couldn't slow him down before he bumped into something.

Not exotic and it could be a little cheaper, but this is a nice little survivor from the bike boom.

Is that a chain ring or a saw blade? Bet that thing would cut some wood!

1986 Peter Mooney Hand Made Steel Bike - Set up as Single Speed - $650 (Watertown)
I am the original owner of this Peter Mooney. I purchased the bike from Belmont Wheelworks in 1986. The frame is a Columbus tube set that was custom painted in a three color fade by CycleArt in California. It does have my initials on the top tube. It is a 56 cm frame, crank center to top tube center line. It was all Dura Ace originally and it still has the Dura Ace crank and brakes. It has a Mavic Ksyrium front wheel and an Alexrims B450 single speed rear. It has a pair of Scott cage pedals, Modolo bar and stem, Campagnolo seat post, Alias 143 seat. It could be converted back to a multi-speed if one desired to do so. It is local pickup only or I will take it to a local shop for packing and shipping but I would ask the buyer to deal with the shop directly concerning their services.
This is a classic steel frame and I did ride it consistently for 10 years or so. It has not really been ridden at all since and hung in dry storage until I converted it to a single speed. It's a member of the family but it needs to find a new home.

The fork does look bent a bit but that could be straightened by the right bike shop. What I really want to know is if the guy that owned it could turn that 90 tooth chainring and how fast could he go???

Yeah, motorpacing a train and the train slammed on the brakes. Hate it when that happens.

If anyone can check out the bike for dents/bends/cracks and has facilitation experience, I'll take care of you. If you can pack profesionally and drop off at a FedEx outlet, I'll send you a shipping label and cover your time/resources. Just let me know dimensions and weight on the box. Feel free to drop a PM.
EDIT: Actually... after looking at the pics on a larger screen, I'm on the fence on this one. If the seller got down around $130 and no higher than $150, I'd do it. At $200, it's just not worth the cost of facilitation and shipping.

^ Yeah, for NYC, Seattle, Portland, Toronto, I'd say it's priced about right, but no super deal. In my town it would sit forever on CL.
