I got a 2nd written estimate yesterday, and the Service Manager basically said that there is really no way to tell if the frame was NOT compromised. He said that due to the brittle nature of...

Does anyone remember any threads about aluminum bike frame integrity after an accident? Even if they don't see some obvious cracks, is it possible to be sure the frame is not bent somehow?

oooh - this looks fun. can others join? I am getting married in 6 weeks so this would be a lofty goal.

I heard the old lady say that she was given a ticket, so maybe the police thought she was too close even if it was the other guy who hit her. These situations (car accidents) are always packed full...

FH and I both just said, "the chance of this happening with the rear rack never would've occurred to me before this happened". We both have tall cars, which make roof racks difficult. I am 5'5 1/2"...

Holy crap - this happened to me a couple days ago. I am glad it wasn't from something I did. I salvaged my contacts from the sent email that was SPAM in the first place, then I got a new email...

I am glad that to hear that others would think that.

Actually, it was a little old lady who hit us, after being rear-ended by the guy behind her. 3 car accident. Fun fun fun. The guy who hit the little old lady is Asian and is here visiting for 5...

Hi everyone -
Some of you may recall that I was very excited to have recently won a new Mountain Bike off Ebay. Actually, I will have had it for 2 weeks tomorrow. I rode it on the Saturday of the...

Ok - so I've never written one of these - seen them, but was never so inspired to write...until today. Something in the planets must've been off - cause it was strange out there. I guess when you...

malkin - how did you see that he had tried selling it 2 times before? Gosh I am such an Ebay rookie.

I hope it gets to me really really fast too! :p (but safely of course)

Ouch! They cost more than the mountain bike I just won on ebay:D

Hmm - well, maybe I will try loosening the gloves first - then maybe go in for a fitting. This is my 3rd season riding, and I have finally rehabilitated my back well enough to go down to a 180...

:D

Guess what? I won the bike - for less than the original Buy Now Price, and way under my max bid. Yippee!!!

Now..UPS Insurance or NO UPS Insurance...That is the question. Isn't there UPS...

7rider - do the help with hand numbness or wrist pain?

Hi -
I was in a bike shop recently, and mentioned my long problem of numb hands on any ride over 15 miles. The guy mentioned that the bars that have a flat part near the stem that is flat instead...

No - you can't out bid yourself. esnipe goes in, acting as me, and with 6 sec to go - just puts in the high bid I gave them. Ebay acts as a proxy, only upping your bid enough to beat the last bid. ...

Bidding is down to just over 2 hours now, and no action in a day. The # counter at the bottom is at 217 though - so people are watching it. The bid is at $519.11 with me highest. I had placed my...

Cheating Shmeating....:mad: I want this bike. Can you tell I was a tantrum throwing child?:D

I signed up for esnipe. I am still a little baffled about how it works, but I think I get it enough...

WOW - it's like Ebay for Dummies (meaning me) :p:rolleyes:

Thanks for all the tips. If I don't win this one, at least I will be more ready for the next one.

I have been bidding on this since the start, and while my initial bid was up (the starting bid that he set) the "Buy it now" was still there. If I wasn't meeting the reserve price with my initial...

My bidding war is not looking good. Overnight some random person started bidding weird #'s. Who places a bid of $509.11? Anyway - it now appears that the guy has removed the "Buy it now" price...

Thanks Wave. I was worried that my small hands would not like the SRAM's, so I am glad to hear that you like them.

My feeling about this purchase (my justification) is that it is a 2008 model - I...

You bet!! Thanks TE ladies for the reassurance I've needed. :p

He responded. Yea!! :) Feeling better now. He has a "Buy Now" price, and starting bid was $150 less than that. I placed my starting bid, with my max bid being the "Buy Now" price. I am willing to...
