Yea, when I say trade, I mean trade with some other random dude selling a bicycle on CL. I typically don't deal with bike shops unless it's Smoopys in Murfreesboro. I was talking with someone earlier about trading for a nice Cannondale (not exactly a vintage one), and he was going to give me 150 dollars of credit for trading the Sekine. Extremely nice deal there, but I'm not sure I need to jump on that just yet.
