    Hi Guys- I noticed this post this at the velocipede salon, and thought it might interest some gals here, so suggested he post it here. I was tempted by it myself, but its a tad too small, even for me. But since bikes in this size are hard to come by, I wanted to bring it to everyones attention. -e

    Disclaimer, I do not know the poster personally, so exercise the usual care one exercises when negotiating with a stranger in cyberspace. He seems like a nice man from the little email correspondance we had. But, if I were going to proceed with a sale from a stranger like this, I would start by asking for the bike's serial number and verfiy the info. with the manufacturer, maybe get some ebay feedback that is linked to his paypal account, etc. You know the drill.....

    She's a beauty! I'm so glad it's a tad too small. Gorgeous! I hope you sell her quickly (don't know why I deemed it a "her").

    I tell you, I'm tempted because that bike would fit me. That said, I would like another titanium bike and I really don't want to spend that much right now (will be having my baby spayed in late Sept/early Oct...)

    And I thought my bikes had it good. I don't let mine on the furniture.

    Thanks for all the PM's. Just responding to to a few questions for everyone.

    Bike is still avaliable.

    Top Tube is straight, not sloping.

    Standover is 28.25 inches, measured at center.

    Nice! I'm pretty sure I could make this work for me...if only it had fender mounts! I don't need two road bikes without fender capability in the PNW.

    I hope you find a home for it soon. Beautiful bike!

    Just found out that I will not be needing the 650's for another bike. Will now include them if buyer wants for $150.

    Frame and fork are steel, not ti.

    As always, just PM me with any questions.
