"Basically a Specialized Rockhopper"
This is the same fork bend I gave my Novara... too many wheelies. If I'd known in 1998 about REI's old return policy I probably could have rolled it into the store and come out with a new bike.

The guy is asking ten large for this thing so he provides a measly three pix, primarily of the POS Hypercycle that is not mentioned in the ad, and also provides no details of this costly item.

How much is shipping on those things?
The base price for the Strada DF Velomobile is $8150 Euros, or about $9191, custom built NEW.

A bit early for Chanukka, but what the heck, Mazel Tov!
CL
bellingham >
for sale >
bicycle parts - by owner
I made this pro level menorah a couple years ago out of only the lightest weight, race grade, bike parts. I don't mean to toot my own shofar, but it turned out pretty awesome.
It has served me well for a couple of Hanukkahs...but now I think it's ready for a new Jew to enjoy...or a Gentile that wants two burn up to 9 candles at the same time.
I will except Gelt, Guilt, or Gornisht as payment.
(This is real, come check it out.)

It must be a pretty small subset of bike riders who have a trike and want to use it with rollers. This may not be wacky, I'm trying to figure it out. Why would rollers be trike-specific?

I'm guessing it's a trike with a single rear drive wheel and two front wheels and the rollers cradle the drive wheel while the front wheels just sit out in front of rollers.
