Yup that's about it, purely cosmetic but I'm in no rush to drop a ton of money on them, they pop up on eBay for $20-35 every so often but for the past few months there haven't been any that aren't crazy expensive. If anything I'll get Rb021s but it's not the sameee. I'm pretty much content with my risers for now though

You sound like you know what you want so this is not meant to dissuade you in any way, but while we're on topic, the RB021 is the most uncomfortable handlebar to ever sit atop any of my bikes! Switched to an RB002 (after much experimentation in between) and couldn't be happier.

Can I place a request in this thread? I'd love it if someone could let me know if they find a set of the old Mavic pursuits with the logo on them

If he won't, send me the money to buy and ship them, and I will. I work in shipping, and get cheaper rates for stuff than the general public.

Can someone explain to me the pricing of this 3Rensho?
1992 3RENSHO 56 cm Track Frameset NJS Stamped Blue Sparkle | eBay They're asking almost 3K for a bike with scratched up paint, multiple chips, rust spots, etc.. I could possibly expect that price if they found a brand new NOS frame in the back of some shop...but this is just your run of the mill condition used track bike. Go on NJS-Export and you'll find 3Rensho's in the same condition going for a 1/3rd of that price. What am I missing? |

What am I missing? $profit$ is the answer; he flips them and has a buyer in Japan buying them for him on the cheap from keirin swaps It's only worth what somebody is willing to pay for it. |
it'd be cool if this thread worked out more how [MENTION=380748]thedapperest[/MENTION] was able to use it just now. people post things they might be looking for and those of us who scour CL for stuff when we are bored can help them out if we find something locally. The fact that we almost have a built in friendly shipping system, as [MENTION=419600]AndjaVXC[/MENTION] just offered, is even cooler.
We have active members all along the west coast, east coast, and in many major cities in the midwest, I for one just think it'd be cool to have a thread that can help people find parts and frames via CL across the nation. might help some of us sell some stuff as well. |

also when [MENTION=367865]leegf[/MENTION] showed me how to set up alerts for searches in CL/ebay that blew my mind.

Bikes are meant to be ridden, not become show pieces. Hope someone buys it and rides the hell out of it.

Frame is just meh, but this is still a bargain (and a sweet, simple build for the money), IMO.

+1 on 650b fixed gear with fenders in Portland. it literally makes too much sense.
+2 if rear hub is double sided for freewheel |

Why must this be in my size and nearby.

That exact Bianchi Pista frameset came up on eBay last month. No dents, but a little rusted and needed a respray. I emailed the owner for more complete specs as I couldn't find anything on it other than ""early 90's."
He was of little help, listing ended unsold. I was already shopping for columbus Cromor and Bianchi decals; he was asking $450 shipped, frameset only. |
Why are BMW frames so sought-after?
