700C wheels with Mavic T207 rims, 36 spokes; sealed bearings.
Shimano Deore XT power train: Chainwheel: SGX 46-36-22 cogs ; Rear: 9 sprockets, 11 to 32 cogs; bar-end shifters.
Cantilever brakes.
Pedals with toe clips, 2 sets; also Shimano PD-M515 clipless pedals.
Avocet gel saddle.
Plus: Blackburn racks, front and rear; fenders; water-bottle cages & bottles; Zefal HP frame-mount pump; 2 sets of Jandd Mountaineering bags (small); seat bag; wrenches; cable lock; chain and spoke tools, etc. (The whole junk box of a long-time cyclist.)

I'm not really much of a fixie aficionado, and this would not do for me as I live on a steep hill and as a result, I need climbing gears, but this looks to be a well executed fixie for not a lot of money:
MASI Speciale Fixed with reversible hub
BTW, that Waterford touring bike in Lexington looks to be a sweet deal on a sweet purpose-built bike.

This Holdsworth Special frameset in Miami would make a nice sports tourer for someone and the price is reasonable at $145

Still learning
That DKO flipper comes up with a lot of inventory, but it is buyer beware. He doesn't so much as clean nor lube them, so always budget a full overhaul. Also, he doesn't point out damage, like the questionable fork on that superior. I bought a mixte off him years ago and haven't been tempted since.

SR touring. Rough looking but the arabesque and front rack are worth the purchase price. My size it looks, but Golden is far away.

[h=2]56cm 1985 Cannondale Racing Bike - $400 (Allston) hide this posting[/h]
condition: excellent
make / manufacturer: Cannondale
size / dimensions: 56 cm
Selling a 1985 Cannondale racing bike, very lightweight aluminum frame, made in the USA. The frame is marked 56cm, but back in the 80's they measured frames differently - this is more like a 54cm modern frame. I bought this thing, got it fixed up & ready to ride, and discovered I'm way too tall for it. It should be suitable for someone 5'6"-5'8" tall, with narrow shoulders.
Features:
• Suntour downtube shifters
• Shimano Dura-Ace front derailleur
• Shimano SIS 600 rear derailleur
• Shimano 600 headset
• Modolo brake calipers
• EDCO competition crankset
• Custom wheelset with Campagnolo Record hubs & Wolber TX Profil rims
• Fresh set of Continental Grand Prix 4000 tires
• Cinelli stem & handle bars
12 speed (2x6), not ridden since its last tune-up, with new brake pads, cables, housings, and bar tape. This bike is in excellent condition, I'm just way too big for it.
$500 obo.

[h=2]Seven Cycles CX Frame/Wound Up fork - $900 (West Medford) hide this posting[/h]







For sale: 55cm steel Seven frame with 1" Wound Up fork, Chris King headset, Easton seat post & ITM stem. Canti or mini V-brake ready.
Black paint with a few expected paint chips but no dents. The Wound Up fork has the usual weirdness in the clear coat but those are cool looking forks so it never bothered me.
I bought this on craigslist a couple of years ago and rode it off road for around 500 miles but it is too big for me and it's time to switch to a better fit.
I have a few more parts for a build for additional $$.
