I don't think that $500 Alien is priced realistically haha. Maybe could get $200 since it was their top MTB? I presume you were kidding anyway

It's an optimistic price for the Alien, but of all the ECS bikes it's the most collectible.

Bridgestone MB-0 Zip - $800 - Lincoln, NE
https://www.facebook.com/groups/1327...02452633111965

Seller says it's a 1990. Not all original but replacement parts are "era-correct".

I don't know what the 1k overhaul the seller said these bikes had is, but I don't think it was a $1000 overhaul or else those bars wouldn't be like that.

It might be a Kinesis or some similar ALU fork, but for $90 I would sure look into this if it was my size! And prepare for another search for a steel fork..

Echelon Oddesy $125
Sacramento, CA
Somebody should probably save this bike. Local pick up only.


Original owner. Echelon Odyssey sport touring road bicycle built up from the frame in the early 1980s with now-vintage Campagnolo downtube shifters, vintage Suntour Superbe caliper brakes, and vintage Campagnolo double crankset and hubs. Some other parts of the bike were updated over the years, including PDW Whiskey leather ergo grips. Original Mavic wheelset with the Campy hubs. Newer 6-speed cassette. Medium-size frame will probably fit most people between about 5’6” and 5’10”. Cash & local pick up only.

a steal if original, I can't tell for sure, and worth the work to make it somewhat more "correct".

I don't know much about ECS bikes, what makes the Alien the most collectable?

Agreed, not sure what the stock group would have been on these but for a mixed build Superbe and Campy isn't a bad way to find a bike at this price. I'd love to hear if there was a Campy option for these bike or if the owner swapped out stock parts for them. Seems like a Suntour or Shimano group would have been more likely. Shared this to my local vintage group as it was local pick up only, at least one person has an email out to the seller. Hopefully I'll hear more about it and see it on a ride sometime in the future.

Anyone still rockin' 700x20? The Turbo S tires appear to be NOS, and basically make everything else free. I'd be willing to facilitate.
