Nice parts, but I think the start price is as high as it will go.

If that was closer to Brisbane... I would have bought it already, chances of getting a mate to go that far to get it are slim...LugNut wrote:I'm practically foaming at the mouth at this deal but this bicycle isn't moving any closer to me, nor is it getting any larger.

Strange.... I had been messaging the seller to see if I could pick it up in a few weeks when im in Brisbane. After a few messages he said thanks for your interest but you have been beaten to it. Yet the listing is still activeim_no_pro wrote:If that was closer to Brisbane...

check their feedback before you purchase.

i bought some bars recently, and while the bars are as i expected, and the price was fair, it took over two weeks for the order to be processed.
if you're not in a hurry, that's fine, but if you expect your products to be sent shortly after you pay for them, perhaps reconsider who you're about to give your money to.

"Worth $400 if restored", OK I'll bite. Rang up yesterday it's on the way home so I went to see it. Thought it would be a bit rough and small but MIT have some decent parts. Turned out to be tiny and had the worst paint job I've seen for a long time. Fortunately it ws too small and that was the easiest excuse to leave it there. More like $20 for some of the parts, but even they weren't very exciting.

What Munga said. I only know that it looks exactly like that after watching it happen to one of my own frames The paint cracks and ripples right behind the head tube lugs (where the steel bends) usually on top and sometimes underneath too. The cracked paint then flakes away and two dirty great rust spots appear. Then you turn the frame into headset punch toolsmorini wrote:I was looking at that. What makes you think it's been in a buster? The rust near the steering tube would be from sweat I would have thought.
