Was working on tweaking out some scraping tools tonight and found some interesting stuff out there... some of these should be long gone! Wouldn't mind having the Miyata and a few others myself

Somebody please buy this so I don't have to convince myself to drive all the way up there.

I'm really fighting the N+1 urges on this one.

No contact information.....do you think it is legit?
Been down that road before.

I am on the search for an Raleigh Team or Carlton track frame (57cm) if anyone happens to see one pop up. I just missed one this morning sadly.

Thanks!

Any tall fellas out there looking for a C'dale? I'm really too far from UVA to make a trip for a frame that won't fit, but cheap price! at 6'2 this guy must have had an odd preference for bike fit.

Anyone able to faciilitate this one for me? I have a 56cm Le Champ that I'm concerned is a bit small. Pretty please.

My one area of concern if you choose to facilitate is that Greenfield-style-chainstay-crusher kickstand. Would be something for your facilitator to check before forking out the cash, making sure the chainstays aren't ovular and there's not too much paint loss. Unless squashed chainstays don't bother you

I have a soft spot for Competitions and Huret Jubilee drivetrains - Campy hubs too. This one looks like it could have potential. Best offer in play too, could be worth it if it's your kind of thing but you takes your chances with a zero-ratings seller. If it were me I'd want to see left-side pics, I've been bitten by that once.

Nice (except for the mismatched wheels and that awful stem). I'd pay half...

Appreciate the offer, bot my style or brand on the Miyata, had hopes someone might want it at that price.

On the other hand, I've spent the last 6 days trying to find a facilitator near Northampton, MASS or anywhere on the west side to facilitate this Italvega, but I've come up short, so I'm posting it now with hopes that a fellow BF'er gets it.

https://westernmass.craigslist.org/bik/6154668331.html

Chances of another coming up this decade and this neat are pretty much nil.... I'm just wondering how bad the rust spot since it's not pictured.

That's a beauty. Used to live out that way, if we hadn't moved I would help you out. I spy a rust patch above the FD, that could be what the seller is referring to?

This one has been around for a while. I'm tempted, but I really shouldn't buy another bike and I don't even know what it is.
