that's why you'll never see a cervelo T3 get NJS certification.

The main reason some frames are so expensive is to discourage noobs from converting them to ss/fg.

Many bicycle frames are similarly shaped, often made of metal or something like metal. Many have paint. Its all very difficult you see...

thats pretty cool. i swmoke allot of weed so the rasta is much more my thing. i hope murray is not an extra ****ty brand but i guess that was covered under the all old 70-80 steel frames are about the same. its what im counting on.im going to sink about 10x what the frame is worth into it haha.

He WAS asking for $1500. He realized no one was buying it so he dropped it to $950. Still alittle to steep. I'd gladly buy the frame for $400~ though.
