haha uhoh. was this a bad deal?

barba 04-29-08 04:47 PM

I think I would at least want cranks for that price. I am not sure what SR model the frame is (was), but you may have basically bought some used deep Vs.

ChristianJames1 04-29-08 05:02 PM

mannn...the frame is in really good condition aside from some scratches...no dings or bends. the wheel set has basically been ridden for 1 month, but yeah i guess i jumped the gun a little. i already have an extra set of peddles, so i guess im not out too much...

Bah. Doesn't come with the bars. Someone should ask if the spokecards are included though.

trons 04-29-08 09:03 PM

oh ****, didn't see that. a shame

delicious 04-29-08 10:16 PM

surprised that's still up - isn't that a pretty damn good price?

vincev 04-29-08 10:48 PM

are these worth it
 
http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/bik/661695140.html should i drive to chicago and pay $2 or go to ace and pay $1.79?

volucrix 04-30-08 03:09 AM

go to ace and insist on paying 2 dollars
then claim it's because craigslist is reputable than any store

johnnyraja 04-30-08 05:00 AM

Those handlebars are Tim Burtonrific

If that's your size, then I think that's a perfect frame for conversion, and the price is certainly fair.

I can't quite read the name off the bike, but it looks like its decent quality (judging by the welding in the frame). But i could be totally wrong. What would be a reasonable offer, and would this be a worth while fixed gear conversion?

Thanks!

Igneous Faction 04-30-08 01:12 PM

I believe that says Benotto on the side. It's a good looking bike; probably nicer componentry and bar-end shifters!

http://nashville.craigslist.org/bik/662251814.html

I know this isn't a SS or FG but was wondering if anyone thought this was a good deal. It's a 1990. I wouldn't mind having a geared bike.

Thanks

wow this auction is.... interesting!

You are correct, i just got an e-mail back from him, going to go check out the bike tonight, do you think $100 is reasonable? or should i be offering more? less?

lostmykeys 04-30-08 03:55 PM

Well i missed out on that deal, but someone is selling a
55cm Lemond Maillot Jaune frameset for $250
http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/bik/662644067.html

Is this a good deal? would it be a good frame to use for a fixed gear conversion?

Thanks!

[edit] wait a minute, why does that frame look nothing at all like: http://asheville.craigslist.org/bik/608345769.html
or any other pictures i can find of Lemond Maillot Jaune bikes from that era.
Something smells fishy.

Is this a worthy frame of a conversion?

I believe the one in Asheville is the European aluminum version, while the Vancouver bike is North American steel. The LeMond would make a very poor fixed gear conversion, but a very find road bike.

Glad i didn't buy it then. gonna try and win this auction instead, although, i might be making it harder for myself by posting it here.
