Time for some fun!

i just had to share this;


for starters, notice the completely bizarre pics.


rather than put the bike on the floor, the seller has elected to hang it off the edge of a metal shelf that appears to be blocking a window.

there must be a good reason for this, but, i can't think of one.  and i mean BOTH hanging the bike upside down off this shelf, and blocking a window with said shelf.

and then there's the listing itself - all in caps of course;

THIS IS MY PERSONAL BIKE.

as opposed to your work bike?
I HAVE DONE TWO THINGS TO GIVE YOU THE MOST INFORMATION ABOUT THIS BIKE I CAN POSSIBLE WRITE ABOUT IT.

as it turns out, neither of those two things actually involve writing about it!

ONE, YOU CAN SEE HERE SOME PICTURES AND TWO, I AM PROVIDING YOU A LINK TO A VIDEO SHOWING THIS BIKE ON YOUTUBE.

but wait - of the two things he did, there are three things.
LASTLY I COMPILED THIRD PARTY INFO AND REVIEWS REGARDING THIS BIKE.

unfortunately, his youtube account has been closed, so no video.  but he has thoughtfully included a picture of a moving truck.

which you may need to pick up the bike as it weighs 32 POUNDS.

(if you're unsure, a good road bike weighs 20 lbs or less, and most good mountain bikes will come in under 30)

i love ebay.
