Its also on efbay now for $740 obo so....

If you get it, you get, if not, well.....

Understood I definitely agree these deserve special attention now but I still feel like $520 is on the high side. I have seen two fully refurbished frames on Offer Up in the 6 - $800 range in the last 6 months. I currently own 3 and looking for #4 in the Pista version. I knew Yoshi when I lived and raced in Japan and he had agreed to build me a bike when I was there but I was in Osaka and his shop was outside of Tokyo. A very expensive ride on the Shinkansen or a flight which as a starving bike racer I couldnt afford then sadly. Yes I have huge regrets now that I didnt somehow make it work but living there was a struggle for me at that time. Anyway if someone from the Forum buys it at least they will have a better idea of the repair costs before the purchase.
