Cheap little blue LHTs

New blue LHTs in 26" wheel sizes advertised at aebike for $300. That's a lot less than their remaining green ones.

thanks for the heads up. It's a good price. I like AEbike. I've ordered from them before. Good price. Good service.

WOW! I hope that AEBike still has that price for the new LHTs when the 62cm frames are available again. I will not be holding my breath, but one can always dream. How far away is early March, again?

I think the prices are low because the frame sizes are small. In about 2 weeks, QBP will have thier 2006 catalog out and the prices will likely to be the same or a bit more than last year.

I suddenly realised that I haven't check this forum for such a long time, I didn't even know that they have it in blue now.

Dagnabbit !!

I'm all set to order up another Cross-Check to build into a comu-tourer and now I see this. The pricing is the same as I'm getting the CC frame for..............and ever since my blue Varsity was stolen I've had an affinity for blue bikes.
