Panasonic's approach to the tiny frame. Unremarkable but for that, and only $75 in MA.

Another weirdo, but this time seller admits it's not real. Having said that it's a nice frame set for $75! Bridgestone dropouts?

I'm not selling this as a Pinarello frameset. I don't know what company made this frame. It's had a professional repaint at some point in its history.
52 cm ctc Frameset
Comes with Campagnolo headset and down tube cable stops.
Internal cable routing for rear brake
Italian threaded bottom bracket
Takes a 27.0 mm seatpost
126mm rear spacing
Takes recessed brake bolts.
The fork tips are marked Bridgestone.
I'm open for trades. I'm looking for Brooks saddle; B67, Flyer, B17.
Please respond with a telephone number

the 27.0 seatpost is odd: you'd expect 26.8 if it's Aelle, 27.2 if SL, and it's too small a frame for an SP seat tube.

My take: not a Guerc nor an "homage".
With the Nervex Pro "whale-tail" head lugs, the long campy DOs and the "pointed" stay ends on those DOs, I would be guessing "Swiss" and specifically "Mondia" but without any detail pics of the seat cluster this can only be a guess.

Here's Another
It was VERY disconcerting to be sitting in front and not be able to move the handlebars. After we rode a couple blocks, Julio and I traded places, steering from the back was just as weird as sitting in front.

This is me riding a similar tandem at last year's Lake Pepin 3 Speed Tour. This one was an American built (1898?) That had a Sturmey quadrant shifter added later. It was FIXIE and the "lady" in front has contol of a front wheel hand brake! As one of the other riders looked at those features he commented "That has 'marriage breaker' written all over it!" It was owned a ridden by a fellow from the Twin Cities.

Kettler Alu-Rad. Probably overpriced but I always thought these were neat. Positron, all the good stuff, etc.

It's new bike day here in mid-Michigan. My T400 from the Spokane Goodwill showed up today.

Many thanks to our very own @Reco Very for facilitating, and to the downtown branch of "TheBikeHub" for doing an excellent packing job and shipping promptly.
Not to mention @lorica for alerting me to a great find.
Below is the reason I HAD to have this bike -- clearly, these were separated at birth. Mine has a lot more miles and it shows.. it also has no original parts left except the crank. Some nice upgrades on the WA bike -- crank, derailer, brakes -- XT in front, Ritchey in back -- a nice seat post ("RT"?? never heard), Nitto Technomic stem, wide no-name bars and Shimano 7sp bar-end shifters. The wheels are in need of service and will probably go to a lesser bike.
Anyway, I am excited about this. Not great cycling weather, as you can see, so now is the time to get my bikes ready for spring.
cheers -mathias

3 days left on this Faggin... $135 starting bid, $99 shipping from GB. Looks brand new. 55cm. Probably really early, before the engraved Fs in the lugs...
EDIT: I am guessing, but the tubing is probably Columbus Zeta which usually carries a 26.4 seatpost size, while Aelle is .1mm thicker giving a 26.6 post size.

Lotus Touring bike (Eclair, Challenger???) seller calls it a "Lotus Bicycle Pro"
Looking at the photos (which are terrible) it looks like the cranks take an oversize pedal (IIRC Shimano tried an oversized 1 inch pedal thread??), if so I'd ask seller about a reduction as those are probably hard to find
seller is clearly a flipper

I'm selling my old Miyata 512 Competition road bike that's in used condition. 50cm frame. No dents or damage on the frame, but the brakes, chain, and Shimano cassette could use some TLC.
Available for pickup in Lower East Side.

Here's one I like, another Dave Scott Ironman Centurion in nice shape, now with Mavic wheels, bar-ends, tall cogset and half-step w/granny triple.
It's got 25mm tires, and my guess is, that's the limit on this 23.5" frame.
Presented well. $230 ask.
