Hey RRB people, I just met a cool bike guy from Ohio over Craigslist. Well we met up here and did some bike swapping. Ended up with my first Robinson and a nice eye candy black and red Haro pro XL race bike with sinz cranks and it is light! I can pick it up with one finger. He said it weighed in at 18lbs.

Now I know what I'm gonna do with those ACS Z Rims :wink: Cost me my Ross Piranha and a Dyno frame in trade but he drove 140 miles each way to get here. Major props there.
The plan: Black ACS Z Rims, blue tires, paint the chain ring black, red Viscount Aero seat, new decals in the correct locations, and an over all clean and rebuild.

And how can you say no to a red and black bike? It cost me my diamondback, the $5 Hoffman I re-painted, and a mystery frame I had laying around in the way.

Then sold him a frame and some parts! All around great day of trading.

Sounds like you done good, and have a plan. Nice Score!
I had this build planned before I even got the bike. Only thing I got to order is the decals for the frame and the decals for the wheels. In the mean time I been breaking down the wheels and restoring the acs hoops. I'll lace the wheels tomorrow.
