Re: TheFlyingDingo's Fresh bikes-New bike(s)-6/22

Man...i really need to sell some bikes

im on a roll with this buying thing though
Won another President Jet Star, like the one i bought in saline
but this one should be near perfect...and bought it for alot less than the last one i bought
($70 for the one in saline, $30 for the new one)
As soon as the epay transaction clears, i want to pick it up

probably just another freakin "Investment"

Dude, can you save some for the rest of us in MI? Glad someone is finding something, not much over here, but I am always looking.

Re: TheFlyingDingo's Fresh bikes-New bike(s)-7/11-HELP ME

I knew it! I had a feeling one has to have a Brooks saddle. Awesome scores man. I'd flip them all after a good cleaning, but I'd be tempted to keep the one with the Brooks. I'd say you did excellent for $40. No, wait, I'll give you $50. :mrgreen:

I dont know, the one with the brooks does nothing for me...When i look at it i just think Cha-Ching, But whats it worth?
 
Re: TheFlyingDingo's Fresh bikes-New bike(s)-7/11-HELP ME

Wow...now that Raleigh is pretty awesome.

It looks like it has that nice layer of grunge that I was talking about.

Get some Simple Green and soak it all down and then blast it off....stay away from the decals though.

You need to contact Rik (FastbackManiac)....he's our resident English road bike expert.

Any bike with Campy parts is going to be hot.
