HeyYou

Sorry if I'm a bit doff, but are cyclists really meant to ride in the road? edit: outside of the yellow line.

Hi Gongmech Lovely bikes and in great condition. I had a late 80s Trek (can't remember the model), with carbon tubes and ali lugs. She was a very, very nice ride. I don't really know what value to attach to these two, it's sort of out of the ordinary and a little too recent. Most of us collect steel bikes, or perhaps ali, depending on the age etc. I've just had a quick glance at eBay and looks like they go for between £130 and £300, depending on components. So, overseas you might get up to R5k, but with Shimano 105, you're more likely to look at between R2000 and R3500. My guess would be about the same here. The 105 STI 8 speed groupo sells for about £100 tops. I hope this helps. Have a look on eBay and some of the other bike auction sites.

Apologise, was not wanting to hijack a great thread. I think my reply to Modern Vintage explains my concerns.

No problem. fully explained. My concern was over the removed negative comment only, if you read the post, it states quite clearly I don't have a hassle with selling. Edit: Looking forward to seeing the Cobaltos

Sh........ I missed the 444 posts. My lucky numbers, can't believe I was so UNanal that I missed it.

Hi Modern VIntage I'm a bit concerned about WHO YOU ARE!!!! I know I've corresponded with you before and you seem to be a dealer that finds stuff and sells it. Which is cool, no problem there. But, what concerns me is that Morpheus made a comment on one of your adds about the stuff you sell being bought from Gumtree, but you saying it's from 'MY PRIVATE COLLECTION'. Morpheus's comment was removed. That I don't like. Come clean, make some money, or stay away.

All I can say is GOOD LUCK. Not very easy to come by. I know of someone who got one today, but he'll probably want 8 to 10k for it, with delta brakes (generation 2, I think). If you interested I can ask. Send me a pm

'Methinks something smells rotten in the state of Denmark' I posted earlier that we should be in possession of all the facts before we make pronouncements. Without listening to the other side of this story and weighing up established facts, I, for one, am not willing to pronounce judgement. PS: I know CS sold fakes, illegal. I know they wiggled and squirmed and have acted guilty as hell.

Fake is like when HARRY MET SALLY in a restaurant! Grey/Gray has many, many shades!

+1 Not been able to find a stream for MNet yet!!! If anyone knows one, please share.

Edit, edit, edit!!!! Pinna certainly not the first choice for many. Nice, to be sure, but C59, yes, of course. Tommo, another probably better buy. An actually made in Italy frame, Battaglin too. can't get a Chinasini, or Chinaglin, too bloody difficult! Edit: I suppose Pinna victims of their own EXTENSIVE marketing!

Everything you want to know is in the thread. I know it's a pain in the buttocks to have to read the whole thread, but everything you ask has been asked and answered before!

LC, meant to send you a message. Thank's, I got the stuff.

Happy Birthday AA 50 is young, so enjoy. Thanks for outing this and keeping us all entertained for the last couple of days. I must admit I thought it was an April Fools joke at first. Or perhaps I should have said April's Fool (before the grammar police nab me)

Be nice girls!

Fake wheels!

Always good to ask questions. Always bad to make assumptions. Always wise to wait for all the facts before pronouncing.

Not sure who you are, but I can guess. Perhaps it would help your cause if you asked your council to answer some of the allegations, at least it would set some minds (probably some of your exiting customers) at rest, at least a little easier!

Assuming AA tells the truth and does not lie (and why would we suspect otherwise), his original post answers much of the last two pages of negativity!

Repeat after me: The Hub is wise. The Hub is good. and many hubbers are misunderstood!

And if you do, don't post it on the H. Wish you luck Andrew. Hope next time you come around, you're on the top!

I love the white tyres, mind you, I love everything about your work.

+1 That would be my estimate. Complete bike, Nago Dream, or other, with Record 10spd will go for between 7 and 10k

Yeah right!!!! $3000 is almost R33k, I didn't have that many $, nowhere near, I managed to find the FD and the Cobaltos for $418. So still expensive, but I have a friend who's coming out soon and he'll bring them with him.

The last of my US$ Now broke for a couple of months!
