Anybody know who carries Deda bar tape? I know Sporting Life does, but I don't want to go all the way up there.

Hahaha.. I just showed the missus my Arnold Palmer drink (half iced tea, half lemonade.. courtesy of Exhibit-X) and I said, if I was famous enough to have my own drink like this, what would it be? She says "espresso mixed with beer".

i'm sure you're thinking of dropping a shot of espresso in beer, boilermaker style. |

Interesting read, thanks. Pretty much everytime I have sold a bike on CL the person asks me "Is this bike stolen?" and I am kinda like "Uhm, you are in my house, if it is stolen, clearly I am the dumbest thief ever." but I just say "No, it isn't". Heh.

last time i sold a whole bike, the guy wanted a test ride so i just went with him...

Yep, I insist that a person takes a test ride, that way both partys will be happy with the deal. I just get a piece of I.D. or ask them to leave their bag or something with me. It has never really been a problem and most folks offer to leave something, it just seems natural. You get a ton of emails usually and I always talk to the person on the phone first to be sure they are interested (and to get a phone number from them in case there is some drama).

What's the usual process for selling a bike via CL anyway? Test rides seem like a bad idea, but I can't imagine buying a bike WITHOUT test riding it either. I'm gonna be selling a couple bikes soon, so it's valuable information. :)
