Not for me! I've been perusing shipping options, but they cost more than the frame unfortunately.geoff_tewierik wrote:That would be nice.

It may not be a Colnago, but it is a decent frame. Look at the lugs & dropouts.rangersac wrote:At least they're honest about this but do they seriously reckon they'll get that much coin for it?

PMSL - they've shown the full address of that one, and it's a flat I lived in for a year in 1997Rob74 wrote:to ensure a lasting impression......Takes photos with bike on soon to be ex girlfriends couch
Assuming that block hasn't been bulldozed and re-built since then, it's a dump, and the soon-to-be-ex GF is probably not worth missing anyway

there is one born any minute....I thought the key point was that you had to have something to start with before spending any coin...obviously people polishing "sdrut" and trying to on sell them is not a dying art!

If they 'want' $500 then they'd also need to have a far far better wheelset on that thing than two of Star's very own wheel shaped objects.
