He wouldn't go lower than $150. I passed. Actually it was a sweet, smooth ride and I might've bit if it had looked as good as the pictures. But it wasn't as clean as the photos - a bit scuffed up. I hated the saddle too - I like 'em hard, especially on a road bike. By the time I'd have had it painted, applied the decals, swapped the saddle and rims and probably the brakes...no. There'll be another day for my dream vintage Italian road bike.
