No clue on seller's claims and link they provided did not work for me
Gunnar Street Dog - $500 - Redlands,CA
https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/bik/7572636304.html
"This is Sheldon’s bike, the real deal. You can read more on his old website: https://www.sheldonbrown.com/org/gunnar-index.html. The saddle is different from the on the website, but it's still a nice Brooks. Sheldon's gain ratio chart is still taped to the top tube. The S/A shifter is a little janky, but the 3-speed fixed gear S/A ASC hub works beautifully and is a trip to ride. The rotor is missing from the bottle generator, so I don't know if the light works. There just aren't a lot of left-drive fixed-gear 3-speeds out there, let alone one that was built by the patron saint of fixie riders and garage bike mechanics. Own a piece of fixie/frankenbike history! Local pick-up is best, but I'll box and ship in CONUS for $100."

$900 is pretty ambitious for a 105 bike.
https://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/bik/7572517666.html
Rare Bottecchia replica of the ADR team bicycle used in their Greg Lemond led win of the 1989 Tour de France.
Bike has been in storage for 27 years.
Frame features the ADR team's striking Yellow/Violet scheme in vibrant DuPont Centari paint.
The overall condition of the bike frame is 8 out of 10. Some paint chips, but no dents or rust. Normal wear for the age and presents itself very well.
Beautiful chromed forks are definitely an attention getter!
Size 49 Columbus SL (higher quality) frame tubing, Cinelli handlebars, Shimano 105 groupset, and Wolber 700c rims. Pedals are not included.
Some background information:

Bianchi Piaggio Super frameset 60 cm $30
Lansing, Michigan
I'd like it better if it had eyelets but that looks like a nice frame...vertical dropouts make me think ~1990.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...6300820082498/
>> This listing is for a vintage Bianchi Piaggio Super Frameset from the early 1980s. My cursory research shows that this is probably a 1981 in color Burgundy. I was told by the original owner that this frame was Made in Japan and it is probably Ishiwata tubing. The frame is perfectly aligned. Includes the LaPrade fluted seatpost. The size of this frame is 60cm from the center of the bottom bracket to the center of the top tube and 60cm from the center of the seat tube to the center of the head tube. The rear dropout spacing is 126mm and the intended wheel size is 700c. This frame is in decent condition but does have some scratching/scuffing and some discoloration of the paint. There is some scuffing on the downtube from a U-lock and the scratches are mainly on the seat stays/chain stays and fork legs. Could use a new headset.
