Proceed with caution, but have some fun
Recently a thread on this group provided some very helpful information
for identifying scam bike ads. That made it easy to spot a brand new one on roadbikereview.com classifieds, for a $1200 Trek 5200 whose size was listed as "120oclv." When I asked the seller what size the bike REALLY is, I received this reply: Dear sir The bike it's brand new told my how much you want too pay and want size you need.We are a Company and we have all size for sell. Regards I responded that I was looking for a Trek Psoriasis with solid titanium saddle bearings, in a 75cm, and where could I pick it up? Unfortunately, he replied, they only have that bike in a 60cm. I am truly disappointed. Mike |

Dang, I've been looking for a 60cm Psoriasis. What color? They're available in either Slime Green or Pepto-Bismol Pink. -- "Bicycling is a healthy and manly pursuit with much to recommend it, and, unlike other foolish crazes, it has not died out." -- The Daily Telegraph (1877) |
