I'd take a really close look at where that kick stand pinched the chain stays...

>> Probably close enough. I don't buy 25"/64cm anymore but if that Cannondale has a 33" SOH I'd give it a try.

I've got one of those and it's nearer 35 standover (700x32c) than 33.
I'm 6' and can juuuust straddle it. Never bothered me in real life, though.
PBH 89 cm, measured the Riv way.
Sweet bikes!

What appears from the photos to be in superb condition is this Airborne Zeppelin Titanium bike size 56, no mention of the components. It's located in Waynedale Indiana, which is small suburb of Fort Wayne Indiana. Ebay had a similar bike selling for $1,999, this one is $1,239 which I bet that's negotiable. I would be sure to do a coin tap all along each fork blade to make sure it's not cracked inside.

Anyone want to venture a guess as to whether the first one is a 24" or 25"? If it's 25", I might be a definite yes...

It's at least 25". Both bikes have Brooks Pro saddles btw.

Tommasini Sintesi: $650 OBO + Shipping

A 54x55cm (C-C) Tommasini Sintesi showed up. It's a little dirty, but I reckon it'd clean up quite well. The lug work is immaculate. Seems to be in decent shape overall. $650 OBO + Shipping is the current listing. https://www.ebay.com/itm/16592128224...mis&media=COPY

Aaaaand it's gone. Assuming it cleans up nice and the buyer can flip the Ultegra, I reckon that was a heck of a deal. Didn't seem to be any real damage to that frame.

A picture is always how it really looks like in real life, but that gray blue bike appears to have some frosting going on in the paint on the down tube and the seat tube about 4 inches from the BB; it could be they didn't clean the bike well, though it is wet so maybe they did? or it could be rust just under the paint, which is close to the BB, which could mean that BB inside could be toast. This bike is located up in the state of Washington, so rust isn't out of the question.

Again pics can be misleading but it looks like a 25, but I suggest you call the person and get the measurement, or they can measure from the ground up to the top of the top tube to get the inseam and see if you have room; or course you can do the official way and measure from the center of the crank to the top of seat tube, but then that relies more on the seller to do it correctly. I would try to get both measurements.

Anyway I'm a bit suspicious of the one bike.

That's true!

I kind of thought that bike would be gone fast.
