Fuso on CL!

I hate being late to the party! Already sold..... likely to someone who doesn't realize what they bought

Bikes: Are several.

Somebody in Seattle is riding in style (and many somebodies have always gotta lose out).

I do feel your pain, though...reminds me of the all Dura-Ace Concorde on Vancouver craigslist a week ago. $200. I cried a little when when I heard back that it was sold, "but we have another Devinci bike advertised."

Bikes: Yes

There is a homeless man in town who rides a mid-late 70's Paramount. One chrome fender, bars flopped upside down, full Campy record, Pletscher rack held on with metal hose clamps, Brooks saddle, mis-matched platform pedals. He rides it all year long (in Anchorage). Probabaly got it at the Salvation Army and has no idea what it is, but it is his baby.

It sort of makes me think twice about having a garage full of bikes when I really only need one. I try not to think about it much.

Early 70's Cinelli with nuevo record sold on CL today. Listed $300. made a move 10 min after posting and got no reply.

After reading up on the Fuso i realize the cinelli does not compare. let alone for $125 lol!

I love and very much hate our CL.

Definitely wasn't Seattle, I'm in another city for work and I censored the city to avoid people emailing the person to see if they could get the buyer's information (annoying her). It was listed in this particular city for a week before I contacted her and it just sold. Talk about rubbing salt in...

Nuevo is Spanish. Nuovo is Italian.

The Fuso is very nice indeed, but I wonder if many people regard it as superior to a Cinelli? I don't know the answer to that, but I'm curious because I recently had an opportunity to grab a Fuso.
