What a wonderful, beautiful thing! I think it belongs in a museum, but maybe they have a bunch of these over there...? This is the kind of bicycle I try to replicate with some of my builds. Not necessarily the same hardware, but certainly the same design ethic. If I were to buy it, I would hang it from the wall in my shop for inspiration. Thanks for posting this, crank_addict!

When I saw this I thought immediately of the aesthetic presented by most of your bikes. This one is so cool, and the price seems low compared to other "constructeur" bikes, particularly that $6000 opening-bid Dujardin camping bike. I personally like the details of this one better

Beautiful bike. Perfect for the next gravel ride with those 650b wheels? Or maybe be the cool kid a the Dairyland Dare with the oldest bike to show up at the starting line? This sounds like something iab might do but it's not Italian so there's that.

^^^^^ Appears to have rolled off the set of this movie.

Probably already gone, nothing more underrated than a nice, comfy early 90s steel hybrid.

I wish everyone could take one of these cv bikes out for an extended ride...it’s not what you might’ve imagined! They will put a smile on your face!

^^^^ The Blackburns and panniers make this a pretty good deal. Nice build with the barcons and aeros, exactly what someone would do with an '83 sport tourer in, say, '87.

Someone had a 1993 55cm XO-4 brand new in box here in ATL for $300 and it's still listed over here.

On a totally different subject, in 2 hours, it looks like this Follis on-base at Dover in DE will go for $65 if someone actually bids: https://www.ebay.com/itm/143530659598?ul_noapp=true

Granted, this would only be a good deal if local pickup were an option. @crank_addict has one he's working on over here, it's quite similar (I think his may be a 172, though, his is definitely a bit better)

bikemig 

$65 local sale, yeah that would be a fun bike to turn into a town bike. The seller gets points for figuring out the model.

RandomlyWest

Both have been stored indoors for 20+ years, the seller says. Remarkable condition. Woodland Hills/West Hills area (San Fernando Valley), CA.

Note the kickstand clamp damage to the chainstays. May be a turnoff for some folks.

I wouldn't touch this with a 10-foot pole, but do any of you think this is worth the asking price? Why?

madpogue 

No, not the way it's being presented.

Unca_Sam

The market dictates the price, and this could be for a very small market. Like these guys.
You'd have to be a collector to pay that, but is the bike in collectible quality shape?
Put simply, a person looking for a cheap used carbon mountain bike will not pay that price, which gets you a respectable lighter new bike, all in.

sheddle

Vintage MTBs are getting more popular but $2000 is a bit much for even vintage road bikes which aren't like pristine pre-Columbus-family Cinellis or something.
