It was on Poconos CL, wasn't it? Nothing is ever on Poconos CL. And it was on ebay briefly. I knew I should have bought it to flip to you for double!

But that's not a real touring bike. It just has long-ass chainstays.

I didn't see it on Poconos CL, and don't know what his asking price was, but I did quite well
He had it on ebay, he pulled it off because he liked the local sale idea.

It's a Sports Tourer I'd say...has caliper brakes...28c tires on there now and room for larger and a weird rack, forget the brand. I have a full tourer...this slot has been open since the International sold. Actually - I think it;s a lot like some of the Rivendell models.

If you need to make room in there just send that Cyclops over this way.
Honestly though I'm more excited for the Triplet.

Is the sale complete, because the ad is still on CL. Maybe I'll email telling him he could easily get 3K on ebay for it.

Yeah - me too. The triplet is totally unique...this is a really cool bike, but it's not the triplet.
Something has to give...I'll be selling at least one bike soon. Maybe two. The Miyata is small for me - so probably that.

So do several of my bikes. I like DT shifters fine, I'm just realistic enough to know Ergos are far more convenient and easy to use.
