I convinced myself the Vent Noir was a better value... It was closer to home so i ended up with it. The seller is very nice and meticulous. The reason he is letting this one go is because he scored a Bridgestone XO-1. He showed it to me and it was a beauty. Dang, now on a quest to get a X0-1
I just looked at it again, I think I do not want to know what size it is. I would love to have the opportunity to actual see it, let alone ride it.

Beside from not having the dough, I'm holding out for a XO-1. The Vent Noir is quite special among all of my recent acquisitions i must say. Particularly, the seller gave me all of the original components. The upgrades he put on the bike are also very thoughtful. This is a bit pricey but I'm quite happy since you don't see these very often.

Yep, fully agree, this was a great score, good deal despite the spend. These are in a league with few equals, certain Raleigh SC's and Moto GJ's being some of the very few others. I have a frame only one of these with a couple of small issues but it is very cool to be sure.

Kind of a toss between "are you looking" and wacky-world. Nice part; but I wouldn't call it "rare" (maybe "hard to find"). That, and the focus-impaired and spooky-lighting photos, and no mention of size (other than "bring your bike..."), and there are several under $100 on the 'Bay. But it's eye candy anyway.

1975/76 "first generation" Fuji America. Bike was purchased new in June 1976 (from FB posting), which was just before the bicentennial. 25" frame with 27" wheels. In burgundy! If it were near me I'd buy it in a second. Nice!

Unsure if this real.....
Certainly the damage can be fixed

A rare 3(san)Rensho Super Record Aero frameset, 1984, hand made in Japan. Campagnolo dropouts, Shimano headset, and Shimano Dura Ace Aero shifters. The frame is an unusualy large size, 58cm center-to-center seat tube. The right rear dropout is cracked, so needs to be repaired or replaced before it is rideable. The top tube had some rust around the cable guides, the rust was treated with rust neutralizer and resprayed.
Wheelset not included
$520 cash, or PayPal
