I'd like to get $1000 USD for this fine machine that was well maintained. Buyer does pay pal and will pay for a bike flight.
Scrod installed the BB and even sprayed the inside of the frame with frame saver himself which I'm sure adds to the value of the bike.
Selling because I ride this bike maybe a handful of times a year which is a total bummer and I want to get into CX racing so I need to make space / get the funds for another bike.

Howd you get the Sugino 75 to fit? I tried it on mine with a 115 ISO Campy bb and the DS crank arm would hit the chainstay every rotation. Same goes with the DA 7600 crank arm

Also I'm gonna assume that part of your problem could be using a Japanese crank which probably should use a JIS axle and you're using an Italian ISO axle. Can't confirm, I'm not a mechanic
All that said, buy mine

Sugino 75 uses an ISO spindle. The ProType is 109mm ISO.
I've seen a few Wabi frames with crank arm clearance issues. Wilson's is not one of them.

Just my luck. I tried a DA 7600 with 109 ISO protype before and the arms hit the chainstay. His probably fit cause the frame size is bigger, mine is 49. That or Scrod used some kind of magic

BUMP. I'm open to REASONABLE offers, parting out and even interesting trades...

There's a for sale on ebay right now. Understanding that it's not an apples-to-apples comparison, you may want to watch to see what used Wabis are going for.
Edit: I don't know why it's putting that gigantic picture in the post. That's new for me, and I can't figure out how to make it go away.

That's a terrible comparison considering the components on the eBay bike are nowhere near as good as the on the one being offered here.
Wilson's crankset and wheels are worth nearly $500 on their own.

I know what the crankset and wheels are worth. Just trying to be helpful. One data point is better than none, and the bike is not getting a lot of love, not even parted out.

I'm in Portland Maine. I could also be willing to travel to the Boston area or NH for serious buyers.
Luckily I'm not in a rush.
