This strikes me as a bit pricy for a frameset but I do love these...

More for the Miyata fans - a reasonably priced 912, for once (for some reason I've seen these poking into the 500+ range)
https://seattle.craigslist.org/est/b...280450461.html
versatile steel road bike, sought after lugged frame and fork made with Miyata spine tubing. (such a sharp looking seat cluster!)
this one has a triple crank and a suntour long cage XC sport derailleur for the hills. original avocet seat and fluted seatpost. Mavic 700c rims laced to what i think are specialized hubs. nearly new gatorskin tires. Nitto stem and bars. some light scratches but overall great shape
52 cm seat tube (c to c) and 53 cm top tube
can't hold, can't deliver
please check a size chart to know if this bike fits

I've been looking for a good deal on a Brooks for a build that I got from Madhonk. Most used Brooks out there are worn out/abused and when you find a good price on a good seat, some sellers won't ship, especially to Canada. Finally got a really nice Pro so never followed up on this.
https://denver.craigslist.org/bop/d/...279202756.html
I think $90 for a Swift that looks like this pretty fair. Denver sale
Per ad:
Virtually new Brooks Swift saddle including wrench and leather treatment. I used this saddle on two rides so approximately 2-3 hours of use but decided that I'm not interested in going through a break-in period.
$90
Only trade consideration would be for a Selle SMP saddle
Available if the ad is up

Tall Pro frame and the price is right, https://offerup.com/item/detail/1073518714/
The frame looks like it would clean-up with Campy bar ends to boot.

The right one will come along, just be patient.
Semi-seriously, I wish you hadn't posted this bike. Now my heart is filled with lust too.

A 1982 Serotta Club in 57cm and SunTour Superbe Pro just sold for $150 near me. Near pristine. I am heartbroken that I missed by 30 minutes...

A thousand bucks is a good deal for that 10th Anno Merckx, as the owner seems willing to negotiate...

Think of it as $40 for a groupset and wheels, and maybe, the forks can be straightened.
Leesburg, VA

Bike has bent frame. Selling for parts. 8 speed cassette is in pretty good condition. 2 speed crank is also in good condition.

I'll admit I have no idea who made these but for $65 you get a pretty nice looking road bike with a triple and what looks like brazeon shifters. Tire look miss-matched and it predates when cheaper bikes came with bottle braze-ons. I know they made lower end bikes but have seen some nicer ones, usually twelve speeds posted on here.

Maybe this has been posted already, but there's a smallish, Ultegra-equipped Tommasini up for bid in Colorado Springs closing soon: https://www.shopgoodwill.com/Item/115831336. Looks like it has mismatched rims.

Sometimes you can do really well with these sales and sometimes it's a crap shoot.
Description makes no sense (smirking gear) and "23 inch rear rims". Unknown what the rims are (26 in?) but currently at $2 and there are used SPD pedals and what look like new SPD cleats and two rear racks if someone needs such things.
Phoenix, Az - Auction ending est. 8:41pm tonight.
https://maxsold.maxsold.com/auction/...626.1613094618
Bike rims - 23 rear rims, Nordic Track parts, smirking gear, two rear bike racks. B

Same story but might be more here and bidding at $7. There's a Viscount frame on the wall, a Gitane, an Apollo frame, "Glenn's Complete Bicycle Manual" (that should cover your costs), forks and old wheels, a box marked "pedals, chains, brakes, headsets" and a box of unopened bar tape and a Brooks seat. Most of it look like junk but a few things might be fun to have.
Just be forewarned! You win, you have to remove everything you bought or pay a disposal fees.
Too bad it can't be inspected before hand.
