This one been on ebay for months. Bonus laughs for how he lists a bicycle blue book entry that shows the bike at about one tenth the starting price.

Also "current driver licence details will be recorded prior to inspection". Fair enough, you never know when you're going to get rolled for all those sweet sweet 20 year old used entry level mtb components.

Kind of cool, but I wouldn't pay $50 for it tbh.

Hayfever is a killer. I've been so close to putting my bike into storage over mine (luckily Telfast seems to stop it....). Except I'd want to build a vacuum chamber in my livingroom first so I could evacuate all the air out of it first before I put my bike in. Do you think the threadcount is important when selecting a cotton cover?

Prick rejected my offer of $7.55 plus $23.35 and a box of Zirtec for the 100% cotton cover.

I don't dispute it i'm developing it myself lately, I'm laughing because the word contracting is normally paired with a contagious disease/illness not an allergy such as hayfever. Higher thread count would trap more spores.

Is this a repost from the douchebag of the day thread?

edit: Love the detail about getting a service...12 years ago.

Fucking typical, i was going to offer him a great deal on his Aluminium alloy workstand!..pity its not for sale, must be too expensive-as its constructed from the official material that the TDF mechanics use for their workstands!
he also quite rightly pointed out the the marzocchi shock/fork were made in Italy, albiet poorly! but the rest of the bike components were probably made in Taiwan to a much higher standard
