He gets most of his bikes as LBS giveaways and from scrappers. I don't think he'd paint them. It just might be a ghost bike being reincarnated.

This one bothers me.
Either seller got took when he bought it and now thinks he's just passing on a legitimate saddle at a fair price or he's a straight forward con.

Finally! Pedals for the Abarimon
These are just what they need to join in our races!
This won't work the way you think it will...
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Shimano-105...d/223803801994
About the Abarimon
The pedals otherwise look good. It's always the cages that are impossible to find. Loss leader, perhaps?

^^^^ Maybe it's his solution to the unicorn cages thing. Just swap the spindles, and you're GTG.

That's actually creative! I have the 600EX versions at home that that would work for. I don't know how the 105's work, unless they're like modern SPD's with a retaining nut at the spindle to keep it in place.
