Real listing Awesome Bike

Also, you must read the reviews. Priceless
|
no sloping toptubes in the 60s, but hey.
I'd bargain it down if few hundred thou just for that. |
I wonder if he'll take a check?
|
At least the shipping is reasonable.
|
At that price, it must be a good bike.

suppose now a $5000 co-motion would be considered cheap junk. |

well, it certainly raises the bar for what must be considered high-end.

They did not make fork crowns like that in the 1960s, the stated vintage is clearly not authentic. You should be able to bargain it down to maybe a tenth of the asking price ... or maybe even less.

I would have bought it but the $4.49 shipping takes it over the top. No thanks.

Too bad he only has one. You could probably buy a dozen at that price.
Can you imagine trying to insure that thing? |
I want to know if the water bottles come with the bike. If they are extra then no deal!
|
I just put in a bid for $20. I wonder if I'll get it.

Do a search
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_st_p...rice-desc-rank $148.5K for a saddle? $14K for a trunk lock? I wonder if they will sell a lock for that trunk lock and what it would cost? $14K for a basket. $14K for a windbreaker. Guess if you are buying a $75M bicycle, you will want a $14K windbreaker. |

Hey Squeeze, remember what you said, you get what you pay for, and if that's true, then this must be the ultimate, finest touring bike ever made.
any bike bought for under $2000, even a co-motion on close out, by definition MUST be inferior garbage. ****************** http://co-motion.com/catalog/closeout-bikes http://www.bikegallery.com/product/c...-blue-8260.htm **************** |

any bike bought for under $2000, even a co-motion on close out, by definition MUST be inferior garbage. I never said $$= quality in and of itself. Your stupid assumption not mine. Co-motion never goes on close out. Enough with the insults. |
