I have the black version (aka "poor man's Black Lightning"...). It is a nicely made frame worthy of upgrade/modernizing

If you look past that tree you might just see a forrest.
That is an absolute top rate frame at an insanely great price. Have you ever ridden a Serrota? Seriously - you're looking at an an incredibly fantastic machine with solid parts at a great price and all you have to say is you don't like the paint? If it were near me I'd run.
The other difference is that Lester didn't feel the need to crap on it. People post bikes they think others might like - less commentary and more posts of CL and eBay bikes might be a good thing.

I said it was ugly, I didn't say it doesn't have great potential, sorry but I stay away from ugly bikes and could care less about their potential, besides its the rider that makes or breaks a bikes potential.
And yes I rode a Serrota Legend Titanium bike, and I like it a lot, but I didn't like it any more then my Lynskey which was significantly less expensive. One of my friends has the Legend and he's about the same size as me so we trade off to see what each other's opinion was, he was impressed with the Lynskey, of course he's using Dura Ace components and mine is 105 so he like the Dura Ace a bit better, but ride quality wise we both couldn't tell the difference in comfort, but he and I both felt the Lynskey was more responsive which may be due to my Enve 2.0 fork vs the Serrotta fork.

Nice vintage 23" frame includes the fork, bottom bracket / axle and head set. I'm the original owner. I have a 31" inseam and have about an inch to spare when straddling the top tube. The frame is in good condition with a little bit of typical for age paint loss / chipping, but no noticeable dents or dings.

At $400, this isn't a screaming deal, but might be worth a look if you are in the market. This is one of the local flippers.

Keener splendor
Let him keep on keeping on. He's the Mr. Blackwell of this thread and half the reason I come back to it. The other half is for a listing that says "Mountain Bike - $50" that turns out to be an Annapurna two blocks from my house. I'm still waiting on the listing half to happen.
