Hi,
I removed it because I'll upgrade it. I was looking at the VO Neutrino but the price is high. The Lombardo will do 90% of what I want. Also, the Fuji M1 is not getting much interest. It's sale would have covered some of the cost of the Neutrino.

I think that internal shipping rates for the USA are very low. The moment you ship international, things are different. American buyers can be shocked to see rates from other countries. In this case us$ 180 is reasonable using Fedex. The post office would be $30 less.
The total cost of a Mini velo when you factor in shipped to the US is therefore $650. They remain hard to find new. You can t compare the Fuji with the Bikes direct offering. The quality level is different.

Shipping in the USA isn't low, and that why it's difficult for people to buy or sell bulky items. Also, unfortunately, mini velos aren't in big demand in our market, especially since the ebike area has taken off.

Indeed, shipping bulky items is expensive everywhere. The good news is that I’m getting the Lombardo converted to a commuter with an internal gear hub, new wheels and tires.
As for the Fuji, l’m sure someone will be interested enough to buy it.
