Lemond Poprad
https://easternshore.craigslist.org/...976712221.html
I am driving to Chestertown Md tomorrow morning, Sunday, to take a look at this bike. This looks to be the best all around match, for what I have been looking for, that I have seen so far. I talked to the seller today and he is an avid cyclist, close to my age, and we had a really good conversation. I have been close to buying a couple of different bikes that were close, but not quite what I want. Surprisingly, I have been showing some patience, not a normal thing for me. Any knowledge, experience, thoughts or comments on the bike are much apprecitated.

I'm riding a Poprad today. If I had to thin my herd from (approximately) 10 bikes to one, this is the bike I would keep.
Outstanding do-it all bike.
I would however replace the canti brakes with mini-Vs, particularly the TRP 8.4 Vs. Best rim braking I've ever experienced, except possibly for Magura hydro rim brakes.
