No one here would likely buy from BBC.

Drop it to $420, and I'll have my brother pick it up, with gritted teeth.

Welcome to the forum. No offense, BBC has a "history," shall we say. You just came in late on the sarcasm.

The only way to lose weight with the type of bikes on this forum is to spend your food money on one and only one bike and you ride it from dumpster to dumpster, looking for something to eat. Really.

Once you get caught up in this N+1 culture, you'll gain great wrenching skills and wish you rode more.

That being said, it's been done, so good luck and glad to have you.

One of our members is a fine art shipper. She also sent me a frame, packed like art.
