It can be hard to understand how two expensive technicolour MTB's came into this gentlemans hands.

I was over the black matte everything period, but this is not a good alternative.

The harsh world of the used MTB prices has yet to be understood by our intrepid blinglemeister.

The FB SC groups seem to be full of these wankerish matching sticker kits, co-ordinated bolts, matching kashima forks with the dropper etc plus shots of people holding them up on top of any nearby landmark. It makes me want to look and wonder why but also cringe and not look at the same time.

Listing $50k ‘worth’ of bikes with an exact address? I think not.

I was |_| this close to messaging him and seeing if I could work out the scam.

I think that may be the scam

I said 2015 was the year for crazy fugly complementary colour schemes pink + green , orange and grey, fluoro and blue .
These virtual bikes take kitsch to a whole new level.

I've definitely seen that Nomad somewhere? It's not one that would be easily forgotten

Wasn't someone on here looking at buying it and someone did an IP search and the address came out of Indo? or just Choppy moved to the ACT?

Interesting that if you google the Xianyu@tb378579350 you end up at a bicycle shop in China......

 

[FigBo0T]

If you spent an hour in a small room with those bikes around you, you'd be tripping balls for fucking days.

We need a new thread for super dodgy bargain buys where we all encourage some poor sod to take a risk on these so called bargains.
