Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Weird... cheap cervelo 49cm frame on craigslist?

Seems suspiciously cheap, I'm tempted to buy it just to hang on my wall... maybe some time in the future I will find a very short person who would fit it.

I might get it... unless somebody else reading craigslist has been faster than me. Sent an email to the seller offering to pick it up anywhere convenient to them tomorrow afternoon/evening.

CL is the sh*t! I've bought 2 bikes (total MSRP > $4k) for 1400$. . . and they're not stolen either!

The reason could be that the Eyre frame is an older model that has not been in production for quite some time?
