    nerve rmind the bike that ad is a joke

    I like how no bike in the world will cover that commute quicker.... would love to bust out my P4 and put that to the test !

    Seems odd though, decent frame, decent wheels then a flatbar and Sora/2300 - and then asking more than it retails for. Bizzare.

    Putting sora/2300 on such a nice frame and wheelset is just a pure shame.

    he previously had the frame on sale for €860

    That leaves €1640

    Chain reactions has the wheels for €538.

    That's an expensive groupset, the same guy is selling his scott speedster for a reasonable price, he must have some idea of it's proper value.

    "..........so it is durable and crash-able."

    It would be funny to view the bike and speak to the seller in the same gibberish as the ad, asking that he substantiate every claim including the time to city centre and the crashability.

    I can only conclude that his missus mother told him that he had too many bits of bikes lying around and he had to sell some of them, so he put them all together into a BSO and is hoping that no-one will buy it, so he gets to keep it, but at least "he tried".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,278 ✭✭✭kenmc


    It won't take a rear carrier. Oh well, I'm out.

    Clearly English isn't his first language so I'll let him off for the silliness of the ad but he's dreaming at that price. Then again he is targeting triathletes :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,076 ✭✭✭gman2k


    I've bought stuff from the seller, and he is a very nice guy.
    He is not Irish, and I don't think English is his native language, but I reckon his English is better than anyone else's foreign language skills here.

    Back to the bike - he is obviously attached to it, and that is reflected in his valuation, so, it will remain unsold at that price!

    Ad has a serious amount of views after one day :D
