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

Need bike bad- deal or no deal?

I've been watching ebay like a hawk, and keep going back to this one. Will use it for swift group rides and low level road races if I feel frisky next year. Assuming the bid does not go much more than a grand (includes shipping) do you think this is a good deal/bike? The lack of info in the listing worried me, but it appears to be 100% stock for that year model. It is definitely an ebay store selling it, so I'm not sure how it will be shipped...

ebay title is: FELT BIKE CARBON FRAMED 60- CM

Thanks for your input.

Those last minute bidders can really ruin your day.

Yup. I'd be very surprised if it closes any where close to $1000

Yeah, bidding takes all the fun out of auctions.

If the frame is not compromised, it is a good deal, meaning you can resell it for more on CL.
