You're all going to hate me, but I got this EG Bates yesterday for around $300. Campy Record high flange hubs, 531, engraved seat stays, Mavic GP4 Rims, Cinelli Pista bars. I so want to keep it, but I can turn such a profit on it that I can afford to finish my street fix conversion, buy a cheap track bike, get the work done on my roadie that I need, and STILL put money away...

Sure, it looks like a clown bike with the blue tires, but they were uber cheap.

I dunno which one.
It seems as if you've gotten many new bikes recently, since selling the DeBernardi to Earl.
I want to see them all!

The first thing I do when I get a bike is post a pic on bike forums.
just kidding, Pistas are a good ride. I still miss my '03.

longer to cut through the 2 metal rings attaching it to the frame. Or, they would
need a chainbreaker tool as well as an allen wrench.
basically, just trying to keep honest people honest. plus i think it looks neat.
