Stiff harsh ride IMHO. I actually bought one in the ADK for $15 in 2014. BB cups were tough, but time and PB Blaster prevailed.

Gone! I hope somebody here got it.

And a real nice frame holding the parts. That's not a close call; get it for sure!

Lots of cycling gear - $75 (Raleigh





"Fuji time trial
cycle ops trainer w / block
Cat eye heart rate monitor
Size 12 cycling shoes with lock in pedals.

Has been sitting for a while. I could not get the rear tire to seal and take air. Possibly it will need new tire
Cycle computer will need batteries.

First $75 takes all."

I have to stop putting crazy low bids on bikes. How could I have won at this price? Am I missing something?

KonAaron Snake 

You're not missing anything...the auction had a few things working against it:

Large size. Larger bikes usually go lower in auction format.
Thanksgiving/holiday auction end.
No photos...video not very good
High shipping

Perfect storm. Congrats!

PilotFishBob 

Very nice score indeed. Looking forward to seeing your posts after you get it in your possession.

jetboy 

yeah nice score! sometimes ebay still comes through. two of my favorites came from this thread pointing to deals on ebay that I was happy to follow through on. .

camelopardalis

Thank you, Aaron. I was beginning to get worried. Now storage is getting to be an issue. I gotta sell some bikes.

camelopardalis

Thank you guys. This is the second time that I put in a low bid and actually won. First one was the Merckx Professional from July that I also mentioned in this forum. That one was $500 shipped.

Maybe I can get the seller of this Colnago to ship via BikeFlights. That shipping quote in the auction is excessive.

The unfortunate part is that I also picked up two other bikes locally yesterday.

merziac

Nice score, sorry for your unfortunate situation.

PilotFishBob 

If I hadn't acquired a PX-10 and a Bottecchia Professional in the last month I might have been in on the bid - but with those I'm already treading into 'crazy cat lady' territory on bikes so you were in the clear from my end.

camelopardalis

You'd think. I sound like a regular member of this forum.

I'm treading in that territory too right now. Maybe we'd run into each other.

KonAaron Snake 

Note, I'm worse than most here...but I'd try to narrow your focus. Maybe only bikes pre-1975, or only one of these 10 brands..

Try to limit things where you only keep the tippy top and you sell the good deals you aren't that in love with.

camelopardalis

Maybe I can ask you to go thru my Flickr albums and pick a few that I should sell soon.

KonAaron Snake 

I'm happy to give advice, but what you're talking about is personal. What do you most like? What most moves you? I like rarer, weirder stuff that's top quality.

if i had read this before i signed up for these forums, you can bet my username would be "crazy bike lady"

Yay! I'm officially a bad influence!

Bicycles (road) - $50





"One Centurion Iron Man road bicycle (circa 2010)

One Motobecane road bicycle (circa 1980)

$50 for each, good condition; see photos"

https://richmond.craigslist.org/bik/...402067098.html

(Ugh. Were they my size, I'd see about shipping or long road tripping. If they were nearer, I'd be all over them already. Grrr. Moto appears to be a Super Mirage.)

thumpism 

For those of you who may not know, this is a nice little bike. I built and sold a bunch of these in the '80s, and may have done so with this one. Has the Shimano Front Freewheel System (FFS) with Positron that is easy and user-friendly for new riders and the best steel rims ever on a bike; straight and tough with good chrome. This one does not have the original saddle. I built one of these with a baby seat on it and gave it to my sister when her kid was born.

I have no idea what this is worth, and it's O/T, but it's sort of cool.

Italian bike - $100 (Carrboro/Chapel Hill)







"Original Italian steel lugged frame bycicle."

https://raleigh.craigslist.org/bik/d...402790677.html

(If the child seat hasn't destroyed the seat tube, it might be a nice "bycicle"(sp)?)

TimmyT 

It is called a tadpole, I think. @rhm had one for a while. I rode his once, maybe all of 100 feet. It was squirrelly as hell.

KonAaron Snake 

So you're saying you want me to help you facilitate

I'll let him know!
