What on earth is that!?:eek: Anybody recognize the kit? Since that looks a bit to polished to be backyard engineering.:confused:
 
Looks like a bike bug type deal. if I had the money I'd ask @OddJob to pick that up for me. Dang craigslist in my area never has stuff like that.

I can't understand how people are so ignorant about bikes that they don't know that is backwards. Have they only ever seen the one bicycle? Wierd.:crazy:

Oh, I totally understand that.
A little bit ago, I fixed up and sold an older GT Outpost Mtn Bike. I did have to paint it, cuz the paint was a bit rough. so I masked all of the decals and gave it a new coat of red. repacked all bearings, adjust brakes..blah blah. It looked sharp, rode nice.
The girl that bought it came over and rode it around the block..she loved it...but, she asked me " What are these 'shifty thingies' on the handlebars for.?"
Uh..I just told her nevermind, just keep them in the middle. lol
I decided there was probably no use in telling her how I took apart the Bottom bracket, cleaned it...regreased it...adjusted the derailleurs etc. why?
When I was helping her load it in her car I asked,
"So, what did you really like about this bike?"
"Well, it's red and shiny" she said
And so it goes......... :happy:
 

first off, I'm glad some of you are posting screenshots of these ads...it sure is not a good day when all you do is click on expired CL links...cuz they don't last long, everyone knows that.
But, this one, which got a lot of conversation going on here 'expired', which if I'm not mistaken, runs out every CL ad after 45 days.
So HEY...maybe it's still available.....:happy:
 
Cumbersome bikes - $1000
I have two cumbersome bikes, one male, one female. Bought for 1200.00 each in 2011. Would like 1000.00 for both. Both are in good condition.

Hey, I'm not arguin'...I think recumbent bikes can be cumbersome...it's possible. :bigsmile:

Also, it's that EBAY syndrome kickin ' in. Might be a diff. model, more valuable year, condition...but hey, lets find the highest $$ on EeBay and go with that.
That's a no sale bike, cuz ratters & wrenchers know what they're worth,
and Mr. or Mrs j. Public just want a nice shiny bike to ride for about 60-80 bucks. they don't know a Rollfast from a Next from a Magna.
