"Merlin- Extralight road bike - $3200 (Bigfork MT)

20"top tube. Design by founder Rob Vandermark. This bike is mint, very little use. Time composite forks. Wraps, tires are like new. Rims, 2 sets. On the bike Mavic Reflex SUP. The second set is a high end racing/composite rim (the name escapes me). Flight (like new) seat. Avocet 35 timer/speedo. Shimano 600 components. Profile arrowbars.
This bike cost $5500 new. This is the Mercedes Benz of road bikes in the Ti world."

This Craigslist post just reminds me that life is so unfair - how do such brain donors manage to own nice rides like this (while I am still on a 22YO Cannondale)? He doesn't even know the size of the thing, can't even manage to figure out the make of the second set of wheels, can't spell "aero" or "Flite", and confuses tortillas and bar tape. Sigh... God is so cruel.
