Not spokes, nipples. I've seen that on a few olde aluminium-nippled wheels. Try to turn one and they just break in two.

The point was the sellers spelling.

My point was the poster's incorrect part mention

By the way, that's seller's.

1983 Fuji Touring Series IV, ... 61cm?

https://newyork.craigslist.org/brx/b...553196714.html

$350 seems steep to me, but seems like it still has original everything on it...

Clean Premis

Schwinn Premis - VG 58CM - $220









"Please give this classic Schwinn Premis a good home. It is in very good condition and will provide a very smooth ride. She is in B+ condition and ready to ride or add to your classic collection.

- Upgraded Seat
- Upgraded Tires
- Almost new Tape

She might need a bit of a tune up. There is a little chain rattle while switching gears. This is to be expected for a bike that is well over 20yrs old."

Centurion Racing Bicycle - $150 (Cary)



"1987 Centurion Racing bike. Ironman Dave Scott model. Good condition. Always kept in garage."

https://raleigh.craigslist.org/bik/d...553710101.html

(58 cm (?), desirable colour scheme, and too far away by half for me.)

Rowletts was a pretty nice shop BITD. They sold Colnago and I believe Pinarello too.

I actually built that $200 Tempo for the owner maybe seven years ago. Nice bike, and he's selling it for a fraction of what he paid at the time...
