New Frame was a Steal
So I was struggling sleeping at 1 in the morning last night and I found a recently posted ad for a Fuji Finest-le frame. Now I know it's an entry level bike but it came with carbon fiber forks, rpm crankset, bars, stem, carbon fiber seat post, and velo fuji seat. It was a little scratched up but I got all of it for 125. It fits me perfectly and was on the way home from a meeting I had to go to. Anyways, I couldn't pass up buying it. I had wheels cages and bar tape. I cleaned up the mess a little bit on the decal.

He sold it because he put a chain on it, and realized vertical dropout conversions don't work. Then he took the chain off so you wouldn't notice.
Great buy.

haha. I'm not accusing you of anything. I'm just skeptical of a lot of bikes on CL that are really good deals. One my my coworkers bought a bike with carbon fork and wheels and a repainted frame off CL...but he got a really good deal
