Olmo Frame
I'm curious about this frame on eBay that is in it's last day and has yet to be bid on. Any comments?

Olmo makes a nice bike. Starting the bidding at $250 is what is holding people back though. I sold a rusty and damaged Olmo frame and fork on ebay for over $100 last year so really this guy should be able to sell this.

I've got an Olmo of a slightly earlier vintage. It rides really nicely. Comfortable and stable geometry.
For $250 - $350 it is a good buy.

I find ebay on the expensive side and enjoy picking up bargins on sunday morning sales or 'thift' stores. But if I was really after an 80's olmo frame of that size then buying one on the expensive side from ebay is justifiable
