Nicely equipped Super Vitus tubed Ron Kitching with lot of a Superbe Pro group intact. Dunno what's up with the ask price, I think the start price is probably fair, but the BIN may be a bit overboard considering the current state. Looks to be in magnificent shape. Craptastic pics again, who posts 500px pics?!

If you're in the market for a Coppi, one mid-range and one low-end, the seller dropped their price on these by $100 and $200 respectively.

Surfer,
Looks like a full Suntour high end set of components. Not sure of price, but worth a look. Smiles, MH

OK I'm totally confused again!
The bike I was confused about: Red CIOCC in NC which seemed still up for grabs... Reading one of the posts (too quickly, I guess, it seemed like it might be a BF member's post... So I asked, and then said if not his, would he be willing to facilitate. but then I saw you had dibs, and I bowwed out no longer confused, until your most recent post which re-confused me...
To add weirdness to a different situation, - maybe it's time to get out of Denver... there's ANOTHER Gangl for sale there... but this one is smaller and $6000, not $650.
Go figure.

I just hope whoever gets it, it will be well-loved.

Weird. Anyone else notice the huge gap of invisible posts between reply #53900 and #53926 ?
Seems like it happened around the time Last ride 76 deleted a reply in that range.

Not until you pointed it out. I rarely look at the post number.

I had a string of back-to-back posts and it's the only reason I noticed. You can see those if you hit the previous page here

I have had times when a post I made did not show up in the thread. When I went to my posts to see if I did actually post it, there it was. I click on it, go back to the thread, and there it is.

I am an admirer of Ron Cooper bicycles, not an expert on them, but this does not look like any Ron Cooper I've ever seen. The Font is also not one that I've seen on another Ron Cooper. Perhaps this was built by another Cooper.
See this thread for some beautiful Ron Cooper bikes.
