yes the previous owner clearly showed that on the CL ad.

Ohh ya the frame is bent, like I said it is a beater however I would expect that to happen anyways after some heated bike polo games. We don't plan on taking our polo fixed gears out to ride around for leisure, we do that with geared road bikes. Otherwise there is nothing for $50 unless one waits a long time for some special moment, or settle making a mountain bike fixed or something.

to cycleheimer, yes her bike is fine however it had to be taken in to the LBS to be put together and tuned because they come terribly assembled and anything that is assembled must be taken apart and reassembled and tightened. Oh and it came with a Deore rear derailleur which always goes out of whack after a two months or so of her riding which for some of you is easily a week.
