I saw that too. I knew it wouldnt be cheap but I didnt think anyone would go that far (I believe the bids are fake). Ive seen a few slip past people and go for really cheap.

I dunno. The winning bidder has positive feedback for paying $230 for a stem, along with a whole bunch of other bike stuff.

That bike is ungodly clean and rides like a dream. You should have seen the heads turning when it was locked up with the noni. One dude almost tripped over his pedals while walking his bike.

Chris has officially redeemed himself for getting rid of the Raleigh that I wanted so badly.

hey, i got me an old colnago too... and the frame did cost about half that, but that was 20 years ago. actually its a Sarroni, one of colnago's lower end numbers they experimented with in the 1980s with heavy columbus Aelle tube. but the geometry and the lugs and the dropouts are all colnago...
