So the main point is... if it looks good + is in good condition + it fits you + is priced cheap = then grab it fast. There is nothing anyone on the forums is going to tell you that trumps that equation!
BTW: It is usually a bad idea to post the actual URL to a bike you are considering. If it is a good bike at a great price, then someone reading the forum can just yank it out from under you while you wait for replies. Better to just copy a bit of the description and a photo or two from the craigs ad and repost that to the forum. I tend to slip in a fake city and state also to delay the snippers for a while.
Why so suspicious?
Actually for $60 it is a good deal. My first roadbike was a LeTour. A damned good bike!
