    If this kid paid over $3000 grand for this bike....I have some ocean front property in AZ for him....

    Well, I was undecided until I saw the close up of the seatpost, that sold me. $500 sure is a steal for a $3000 bike and 31.6 post.

    Those water bottle clamps are actually pretty rare...especially for a 31.6 post

    Old Fisher Sugar for 2300!  Wow, get real.  This would not sell for 1,000.

    But pedals are included. Maybe you missed that selling point ;)

    Tonights entry. A 14 year old gem. For the low price of $500.

    My son outgrew it before he ever road it.  Great for a kid who is a little more advanced

    Seems to me this is a bogus claim, if indeed his son never road it ;D

    What makes me sad is how incredible it was to have bikes like that back in the day and how cruel the passage of time is in demonstrating really bad taste.

    I think the same when I look back at pictures of High School and college. And I am not talking about the bikes :D

    I'm confident that time will be as cruel to the fat bike craze.  8)

    Saw your rig again this morning...lookin' sweet.

    I think people will look back and wonder why anyone except the racers and weight weenies ever rode any of those silly skinny tired bikes ;)
