Hope it is as good as advertised!! :D

I'm surprised that Prep Stand can hold it.

krustyone 11-18-11 10:13 PM

I know, the thing is a tank! I knocked 10 pounds off it by going fixed but it's still a tank, I love my tank!

Scrodzilla 11-18-11 10:15 PM

Really, though...that's a good deal on that Masi. :thumb:

If I remember correctly, MSRP for the Fixed Ultimate was somewhere around $1200.

krustyone 11-18-11 10:17 PM

Thanks! I didn't think I'd get it for that bid but, YEAH!!!

Scrodzilla 11-18-11 10:20 PM

Oh yeah...derp...you mention the $1200 right in your first post. It's been a long day. :lol:

Nice man....I have a '10 Masi and it is a killer bike. Enjoy it....

krustyone 11-18-11 10:24 PM

Yep, $650 :beer:

GRR! This thing is beautiful! I would definitely have snagged something that in my size for that price!!!

GMJ 11-19-11 04:28 PM

Nice grab.

Bikedued 11-19-11 06:19 PM

Man, what is your inseam measurement? That saddle is WAY up there, and that is NOT a small frame by any means!,,,,BD

krustyone 11-19-11 06:36 PM

30", to which bike are you referring?

Scrodzilla 11-19-11 06:51 PM

I'm 99% certain Bikedued is asking about your actual inseam, not your jeans inseam.

krustyone 11-19-11 06:56 PM

Ha, good point, I don't know how to officially do that but from my crotch to the bottom of my foot is 32"...

Bikedued 11-19-11 07:04 PM

Then there's no possible way you ride that 25 inch Schwinn, not with that saddle height anyway?,,,,BD

krustyone 11-19-11 07:10 PM

This is it finished, does the saddle look lower?

Bikedued 11-19-11 08:19 PM

So what gives? You have got a 32 inseam, correct? I know for a fact that size frame measures 25 inches along the seat tube. That leaves 7 inches of inseam left over. the cranks are at least that long by themselves from the pedal to the center of the crank. Then you have your four inches of seatpost +/-, then another two inches of saddle +/-. The numbers don't add up, unless you're seriously tiptoed while riding it? Not to mention it is grossly misadjusted with the nose of the saddle that high. I am not saying it's not a cool bike, but?,,,,BD

For reference, a properly adjusted Concor saddle.....

krustyone 11-19-11 09:06 PM

I don't know, it rides comfortably. Here is a different angle of the stable, do the rest look off?

As for the seat, you can see they are all like that, it feels best that way. The only possible explanation I have come up with is the nut I lost a few years back...:roflmao:

Bikedued 11-19-11 09:31 PM

Yeah, it would be safe to say that I would be going numb on any of those bikes within about 5 minutes of riding.:twitchy::twitchy:,,,,BD

krustyone 11-19-11 09:45 PM

I made 130 miles, my longest ride so far, on the CrossCheck and it was all good.
Apologies if it bugs you but it works for me. As far as your math, I get it but I never really measured everything and just adjusted everything from my fit.

fixedgear80 11-22-11 04:02 PM

Yea dude in 5'-7.5" MY inseam is 31" I ride a 54cm bike. No way in Hell I could even stand over that TT

aaronpass 11-22-11 06:17 PM

Nice find! I like the gold for sure.

krustyone 11-23-11 10:23 AM

Got it!!

It was missing some stem bolts so I can't ride it until I get those, not complaining since I got a good deal and it came in less than a week!
