Too busy hijacking to pay too much attention to stuff like this?

Knob even advertised falsely in header, stating Complete Groupset, but not actually...

Its the internet, everyone can do what they want, the onus is on the reader to see BS, one of the last bastions where the stupid still get punished, lol. Pretty much like those SMS's I get, saying I won $$$

My favourite is the bikes that have only done 80 km! Who on earth buys a bike, rides it for 80km and then decides to sell it? 80km is one Saturday morning ride. There is no way on earth that you can buy a bike, ride it 80km and then decide that its not for you. Unless you got shnaaid by a bike shop and the bike is way too big or way too small. Dunno, dont make sense to me.

 

And then the okes that want to sell their 26" because they are UPGRADING to a 29er. Wear you flame proof suit if you say this. Riding a 26" or a 650b

or a 29er is personal choice, its not an upgrade.

BTW, I ride a 29er and love it, my training partner rides a 26" bike and loves it. Personal choice, one is not better than another.

OMG someone have hit that one ON the nail. I sometimes get the feeling the twenty niner is more a fashion accessory then anything else.

It can happen, a mate bought a Silverback, did one ride of about 20km with me, he did another 10km ride on his own, did the 40km Magalies Monster, thought it was all a bad idea and I took it off his hands for the princely sum of R1500, stripped the bike down, sold the frame, bought the wife another frame and used all the parts!

For complete bikes / frames, please put the size in the heading!

 

Or Mods, please include a size field that must be completed by the seller so that we can search / filter by size....

 

I hate going through hundreds of adds, having to open each to find that its not the right size fo me anyway (if the size is even listed by the seller to begin with)

Heaven help these folks if you game them an old fashioned 26" inch bike to ride

Exactly, like force the seller to complete a template. How many ads without basic stuff, like size.

 

Also, check your frame, Cannondale is probably spelt correctly on the frame, so if your ad states Canondale, I'm thinking cheap chinese knock-off.

 

And on cue... https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/61817-canondale-supersix-105/
