I guess I could go look at it and tap the powdered tubes with a wrench, and see if they chip? Powder coat baking surely would have burned off the lug paint, so it's certainly badly masked paint. That was one those bikes where I emailed the seller and told them I'd have happily given them $100 more if it had been left alone. For jebus sake, if you don't like celeste green, sell the bike and get something else.,,,,BD

I've never seen an all white Sirrus. 1989 Sirrus with 7-speed Uniglide cassette - last year for UG. It might be priced slightly high, depending on the condition of the components and the local market, but the frame appears to be in good shape. Not a bad bike really.

And I'm all for supporting ESL posters, but come on, Google Translate could do a MUCH better job.

Thankfully he will never build another one like it. Lets hope that was a promise! I especially like the bit about it being from the "70's" with mid 80's 501 tubing.,,,,BD

This weekend on CL there was an ad saying, "Two old bikes" for $100 because the seller was moving. One was a Fuji Palisade with the seat slammed down, the other a mountain bike. Today, a Fuji Palisade with the seat slammed down has been listed for $240. I can't say for sure it's the same one.
