Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Schwinn Fastback on eBay

Am I missing something?

MSRP is $549, they sell on eBay new for $340 .

Legit? Anyone have any experience with these?

The seller has good feedback and according to his history, he most likely sells bikes and bike parts.

I'd say it's pretty safe. If you like the bike, go for it.

Those are closeout base Fastbacks from last year. They don't have the carbon forks or carbon stays, but they're still good for beginners or those who are looking for a basic training bike.

MSRP is meaningless anyway.
