ATALA - Where's Waldo?
 

Can anyone spot anything wrong with this bike before I make trip out to see it?

The CL poster has a bunch of photos up.

Thanks

"Extra Special Guaranteed Tullio Tubing!" I would normally expect just the regular "Special Guaranteed Tullio Tubing" at that price point.

I don't see anything at first glance, but I'd definitely try to talk the guy down.

How can you argue with Extra Special Guaranteed? :-)

I would pay that in a heart beat, and I am careful with how I spend my bicycle money. Better hurry!

I think that's a Gran Prix model, and the Tullio tubing is very likely Hi-Ten. Doesn't do anything for me personally, but that's what makes the world such a diverse and interesting place.
It is cool that it appears to have forged dropouts and alloy wheels.

The price is right. If it's light, fits you, and rides well, is in good condition, buy it. The condition looks good from here.

It's a mid-level frankenbike. Definitely a useful bike, and probably an enjoyable one. Looks nice, too.

You could talk him down at least for the cost of a new freewheel/chain. Yuck!

Thanks for the feedback

The ad is gone. Did you get the bike?

Nope, someone beat me to it. I hope it was someone on here.
