Hey guys

 

Keen to hear what you think of my ads.

Would appreciate an honest opinion as I would like to improve my sales.

If you don't mind just look them up under my profile.

 

Thanks!

Sorry, but what exactly makes that bike so fast? 72kph? Wow! It doesn't seem particularly aero.. And if it's not a genuine Pina, will it be as stiff for power transfer? Or as light with the old Ultegra?

 

Rant over

 

Amazing comments though :P

 

Hillarious

 

:w00t:

Is it just my imagination or are a lot of ads (not all) on the classifieds just epic failures...

For one, some sellers extremely overvalue their items. Am I wrong to assume a bicycle drops in value by around 50% within a year of use?

Also the descriptions are totally useless. Lets keep factual with specs...e.g. weight of a frameset in kgs, instead of comments like "super lightweight"...the funniest to me is when a seller describes a bike as "fast"....bikes are only as fast as they are pedalled by the rider by way...or am I mistaken?

Please excuse the absence of links as I'm typing from my phone...but if you guys look around I'm sure you can plenty of silly ads...how about posting our favourite thehubsa classifieds failures for a laugh???

 

The best description of a fast bike was for the new Scott 650B: "it might not make you as fast as Nino but it surely won't slow you down"

 

Now there you have it, I might be slow but don't you dare blame my bike!

almost made me vomit.

looks like he's been cooking chicken-livers in those.

If those are "Nearly New" that makes my two year old MTB Shoes "Brand Spanking New"

If he calls that nearly new then damn, the man can ride his shoes into a dismal state rather quickly.

 

On another note, they looks so siff, who would consider putting their feet into those crusted things.

 

I actually know this guy... Haha its super fun reading all the comments on this ad! Shame, I don't even have he heart to alert him to it!
