goddammit

i don't need any more fixed gears. I have the continuum which is good for like all my ridng, i have the peloton which is completely unusable but I'm too sentimentally attached to it, and i just bought a goddamned track pro.

Hoarders: Buried Alive (in fixies)

Wth. I saw that price and was 100% ready to pull the trigger in a matter of 3 seconds, but they are OOS of my size! FFFFFFUUUUUUUUU.

What's with the 44T max chainring ?

Not as bad as me. I saw it, took 10 seconds to open a new window and check my account to make sure I had enough money. I go back, add it to my cart and its OOS in my size too.

All-City Big Block complete bike in 52cm or 55cm for $575.28 shipped thru 5/30 >>> http://www.greentirebikes.com/bk4702.html IDK if this is legit, but I put it in the cart with the 20% off coupon code and it showed in stock at that price. FWIW, I tried buying one at another outlet, and they lied about it being in stock so beware.

there's another 50 off the ftp when you put it in the cart, you can have it shipped for 170, someone please buy all the 61s before i buy a frame i don't need

wow two insane deals on this page. I'm especially intrigued by that all-city. I've never heard of GTB... legit?

All City Big Block vs Jamis Sputnik? I can't ignore both of them, I feel like one is coming home with me today.

IDK anything about them, and based on my recent experience with another online store that lied about availability, you might want to email them first before placing an order. They have a physical address in St. Paul, MN, which is close to All-City, but do not appear on the All-City list of dealers.

so after after adding to the cart the fuji track pro is $150. that seems to be bordering on buy just to throw on ebay territory, but since city-grounds sells it with the fork for $450 it's not quite worth the effort probably

how much are the forks?

ugh i wish they had my size

figure a fork to be around a hundred dollars, after ebay fees you might make around 50-100 dollars.

but we all got crazy parts bins right? only thing i dont have spares of is a crankset/bb and an integrated headset

If only I was hardcore, my size is one of the few available :P I just can't picture myself riding a drop like that

Nashbar actually has a pretty nice sale in general going on. This girl I know is a super cheapskate and wants something pretty, so won't buy a windsor or something off BD and likes the lager, may end up getting it for $200 today which isn't terrible if you're okay with a 30lb tank

edit: oh I also forgot that nashbar has excessive shipping charges *and* charges state tax despite being located in NC (i think). Either way everyone seems to be giving them tax. So consider the price of the Fuji Track pro closer to $180 before you think you're ready to pull the trigger. Great deal if you're going to use it, but reducing your already slim profits even moreso if you planned on relisting

I also couldn't get their coupon to take during their last sale, so I ordered anyway and shot over an e-mail asking the coupon be applied. They shipped my order without applying the coupon and never got back to me. It was only $5-10 off or something but still :)

i would hardly call $20 for shipping a frame excessive. and the coupon code 20625 excludes bikes and certain brands. i think fuji is one of the restricted brands (the coupon is mostly meant for selling accessories)

I didn't mean $20 for shipping a frame was excessive, I meant nashbar in general.

# 44T max front chainring

??

huh? so its a "track pro" but i was under the assumption track racing required much larger chainrings....44 is kind of wimpy.

see post #1304. I hope it's a typo and they meant 54T.

omg

I probably should not do what I think I'm about to do....

oh man sooooo close to buying one. and another bike frame/build/project is the LAST thing i need to be spending money on lol

i know seriously. my roommate and girlfriend would give me sooooo much sh1!t if i pull the trigger lol.....i already have 5 bikes.
i would hide it in the basement and not tell either i got it hahaha then slowly build it up down there like the closet bike fiend that i am.

i mean... it is payday.
its not like im trying to make huge payments on a wedding ring for my wife to be LOL

someone talk me out of this or i will just continue to make excuses
