FS : Bike Friday New World Tourist

[Duck on Wheels]

Okeeeiii. LA. That's not too far away from the Bay Area. So shipping shouldn't be prohibitive. If it's in its suitcase, storage in my Mom's garage (Sonoma) shouldn't be a problem. I should give her a call first though to clear that, which I won't be able to do until I get home Saturday night (I'm at a 3-day meeting in Oslo now). Also, I'd have to make an electronic transfer from my bank here to my Wells Fargo account, after which I could send you a check. That can be done. There are instructions on the respective bank web sites, though I've never had to do that before. Always just topped up the WF account with my Skandinaviabank visa card when I was in the States. But I know where to look up the codes, so it should be no prob. Final trepidation: being based in Norway with next CA visit scheduled for end of June I wouldn't be able to give it a test ride. I'd just have to cross my fingers about the fit and feel. Hmmmm. At 800 I'm sorely tempted. How much would a new set of bars cost, I wonder? And everything else is in good shape, you say?

Duck-

DH put some H bars on his old commuter and ISTR they were in the $40 range (for the special, split H bars). They're awesome for in town riding especially, but they give you lots of hand positions for longer distances.

CA

Yep - just looked. They're $45 plus shipping. http://store.bikefriday.com/index.ph...4e3c&cPath=155

Duck - if it doesn't fit you (like if it's too small, specifically) there is always the Knot Kneed. I can be your back-up second purchaser.

And Trek can't complain about it, CUZ IT FOLDS UP ALL SMALL AND CUTE-LIKE!

duck and knot,
as far as I know the handlebars are it!
it has about 1600 miles.
Yes, I'll break it down in the suitcase
but wait, I've also got a spare tire!
Seriously, It just sitting here and I need the money(bald car tires)

[Duck on Wheels]

Arright. Let's go for this. Can't have you driving around on bald tires. That's just not safe! I'll do the bank transfer thing on Sunday, then write you a check. Meanwhile, could you find out your end what shipping will cost? Let me know and I'll add that on. PM me your address and I'll PM you my mom's or Trek's, depending on where we decide the suitcase gets parked until June. I'll call them on the weekend for a D-side.
