Yes it's a high price for an early-model ALAN that takes 24" wheels (unless that's just the needle in a haystack you've been looking for).

??? Columbus frame - $120 - North Hollywood, CA
https://offerup.com/item/detail/1629163962
can't crack the code on this one? even with name and signature! If it was closer, I would have bought it and figured it out from there.
Can someone please identify this bike? it is hurting my brain

a Hella great price for such a bike, assuming nothing's damaged
EDIT: looks like he does more restorations/repaints than custom builds, but my advice: BUY IT and then contact him for more info:

Nice detective work! I knew it was something nice. Very long drive ( tmnguuyen & I have discussed getting a "choppa") and not my size (need to stop with that) shared here so another BF'er can score!
Somebody local better go get it!

My guess it is worth a careful look-see if you're near Houston!

Agreed! I should have read the ad more thoroughly before my reply to Rob. I did NOT realize the bikes are in LA I thought he and the bikes were Oceanside. I am definitely not interested in making the 4-5 hour drive RT from here to look at some wankers bike boxes in a storage closet. Sorry I have to rescind my offer Rob.
he got back to me and lowered the price to $4000
I said, "not one penny until I know the sizes."

I went and grabbed it yesterday around lunch about an hour after she listed it. Initially she only had 2 far away pictures so I asked for the closer shots so I could get a better look.
Turned out to have a Reynolds531 Zeus2000 fork with Campy drops, Rear Columbus stamped brake bridge, Suntour Superbe Pro cranks & seat post, Dura Ace brake calipers & levers,Shimano600 parts. Really interesting geo, kinda mountain bike-ish but very tight rear seat stays.

Not sure how high up the foodchain is this Nishiki but look like it has custom-stamped DOs and features that point to something from the ONP (Kawamura's high zoot shop) plus a lot of Suntour Superbe and Sprint!
My guess it is worth a careful look-see if you're near Houston!

Just a smal correction, it use dura ace 7700 9 speeds because of the typical shifter, rear derailleur and crankset form and the gilco design is the same steel used by Colnago

I don't think it is Gilco. The frame sticker says it is Columbus "MS"
