2013 Best Looking Bike FUJI MOUNTAIN BIKE - TOP OF THE LINE & NEW RIMS
2013 Best Looking Bike FUJI MOUNTAIN BIKE - TOP OF THE LINE & NEW RIMS
FUJI 19" BRAND NEW 2013
THIS IS THE BEST OF THE BEST. I Know what look great on a bike and this is the very mountain bike out there. I have alloy red hand grip and "Loaded Rims"
The is a "disc brakes" mountain bike and its the best looking bike out there. I get a lot of looks on the bike and I take care of my product (TLC as they say)
Brand New:
Serfas Gel Seat: Cost of that $50
Brand New (Loaded Rims Tubeless ) Cost $200
Alloy Hand Grips $50
Lights: $75
Brand New Tires $75
I put alot of extra into this bike.
Note: You would have to see it to appreciate it. This bike will go fast no doubt for a mountain bike. This pictures speaks for itself
Please call for a appointment so that I can show it.
I will take best offer but no low balling, but that's about it, because the rims are too expensive that was order from San Diego (Loaded Manufacturing) and the labor that was put into it.
If you want to see the rim its Candy Apples Red here is the website.

From the local turd-polisher:
Gorgous Touring bike 10 sp 5'6" up
[h=2]Gorgous Touring bike 10 sp 5'6" up - $215 (Long Beach)[/h]
condition: excellent size / dimensions: Full size 27
Here's a wonderful "Step Thru" Touring Bike. It's a 1974 Murray "Leisure Tour" department store bike. Although its a 40 year old bike the presentation is excellent with a clean elegant look. Sold without mechanical issues. Lubed, adjusted and thoroughly tested. Terrific bike. All quality classic Japanese Shimano "Lark"derailleurs and Dia Compe brake components. Tire hugging CHROME fenders give a Euro-continental look. Classic Troxel sprung saddle. Union pedals. Great chrome on wheels, handlebars and stem. New black wall tires with puncture resistant tubes. 54cm. For a rider 5'6" up. Looks straight out of the New England countryside 35 years ago. Why buy an ordinary bike when you can buy this elegant classic tourist cycle. Outstanding!

Bicycle looking for new home - $20 (Dallas Oregon)

Knowing what it is... that's beyond my understanding.
Bicycle looking for new home - $20 (Dallas Oregon)
I received this in a trade and do not know what it is. I would like to find it a new home that would appreciate it and/or use it.
Has some markings but very hard to see, fenders and seat seem to be off another bike but not sure.
Good little town rider that has many years of use ahead

Either this guy is clueless or he's betting somebody else is. Didn't WalMart sell these cheesy knockoffs 2 or 3 years ago?

There's original realio trulio "Jim Blackburn" racks, and there's the currently operating "Blackburn" company that makes racks and probably some related things. I believe there is some relation. You can poke around in C&V and might find some more info.

Nah it's a tri conversion post, I can't see it very well, but I think I even have one of these exact posts somewhere. The funny thing is if he just left it as a road bike he'd probably have ridden it more.,,,,BD

"Jim" Blackburn racks are alright, but they don't get more than $20-40 on eBay, where you get the highest possible price. Which is why I haven't bothered trying to sell any of the ones I have. At that price, they're just a nice, quality rack, not some special collectors item.
