carbon vitus. looks pretty old. didn't they fall apart all the time? they weren't screwed and glued like alan's were they? maybe mustang snapped it up. i know hes in love with his hetchins right now, but it's not like him to knock back a little vitus.

Not me. I looked pretty hard at the one in Byron Bay but held back. I'm trying to only own Columbus and I'm not doing too well at it.

Disclaimer: I do know the seller, and have no vested interest in seeing him make/lose money on this. Either price is pretty hopeful I think. Quality frames are getting rarer, but not this rare yet. I do look forward to seeing his Zeus come up, even though it will be too small for me.

I'm sure a few Brisvegas members have seen this. Check out the free frame he's giving away with the Peugeot.

Relist it. Someone will buy it. Have fun getting around his yard. It's like a demilitarized zone.

I noticed he has a Mongoose NX 7.1 for sale atm as well, i've got one of those in the shed i'm eventually going to rebuild, but in a sickly bright yellow.

I'd definitely like to know what people make of this one. I'm in the market for a bike to commute on and I'm loving the look of the vintages!

Dam_n, you guys are like the Sirens on the Rocks of Lorelei. I'm just over explaining the Ricardo Elite. But I haven't dismissed possibilities.

So, before i junk it, is there any demand for old cotter pin cranks? And by demand i mean anyone who might use it actually on a bicycle rather than the steel recyclers.
