Classic TRIUMPH 3-speed Bicycle - $20 (Longfellow/South Minneapolis)
Yup, you read right: Here's a classic English-built TRIUMPH three-speed bicycle, as shown in the photos. No, it's not complete and yes, it needs a rear wheel and some cleaning up. These bicycles in good shape sell for $150 to $200 and more. This is a fine parts bike or the starting point for a restoration.
The frame's straight. The paint's nicely and evenly oxidized.
First $20 gets it.

Almost anything is worth $20. That's a good deal just for front wheel and fenders.

Weird one liner description on a $3,000 Sherrell Streamliner. And then they used a stock photo from 2008.

maybe it's a lens effect or something, but the seatstays also appear to be very slightly bowed.

It's English...sure. But it's okay, it's been owned by a former bike mechanic.

Creepy old guy sells bike on eBay, surrounded by children:
BMX Bike | eBay
Sure, it COULD just all be innocent fun, but the masked face, the Velcro tennis shoes with black socks, the garage-turned-playroom, it all smacks of a "free candy" van, or worse...

Gorgeous. Maybe worth $6K, I don't really know. But if it's a "Randonneur", why are there no braze-ons for a rear rack? Also, who's Mitch? ("Check out Mitch's web site and do the math.")
