Here in our local CL market there are a fair number of what I would consider 'Classic and Vintage' bikes that show up,
but they're usually cannibalized into Fixies or SS bikes. The other bikes that are called 'vintage' are usually older DS
branded bikes.
Personally, I think there's a misconception of what one person considers 'C & V' as opposed to what another thinks.
I just see a dearth of smaller frame vintage road bikes in the general marketplace; that's what attracts me because
I'm vertically challenged and am always on the lookout for a 50cm frame or smaller, if it was made.
Spam and garbage replies are part of CL; the key is to be judicious, and use your common sense. If you're suspicious
about an ad, then delete it!
