Wheels are maybe OK. Everything else kind of sucks. Just to be clear, I am not saying that Ourys and riser bars suck, but given how cheap they are, there is no way they should determine if you should buy a particular bike. |
specifically that frame is really marginal for that price. but it looks like they're trying to recoup some of the "new" component costs. it ain't worth anything close to 250.00 even in LA. IMO. also BTW that frames probably more like a 54cm not a 50cm. for 250.00 go buy one of these and do a conversion:

IMO a used broken-in by someone elses butt Brooks saddle is absolutely worthless. |
i think the fact that bar spins is part of the title would prevent me from buying it regardless of price.

Because it's a rip off. Offer $100 and go from there.

Isn't a "true conversion" some kind of weird oxymoron? I don't get it.
i retract the word true in my previous post. |
