That guy's at it again? It's been posted for sale on ebay before. I think someone figured out the dude is trying to get even with Guru by selling it on ebay. Not sure how that works but not my problem.

It's a rant, a novel one, at Guru bound to attract attention and stimulate discussions. Like this one.

How much are listing fees on a $5000 reserve?

Wait! Isn't this the bike that crashed into the jumping deer?! If so, its now famous and probably worth much more! :banana::eek::butt::bike:

Good Luck!

I struggle with finding frames with tall enough seat and head tubes, and short enough top tubes. It looks like it would be easy to 'adjust' the top tube on this frame to be shorter before I glued it back together. Gorilla Glue is miracle stuff, right?

It's a good idea really.

I've seen this before, but man, that's crazy. It literally just fell apart while riding...what the heck?

Well, you don't know what the bike went thru before it fell apart.

otoh, it didn't break in a place where you would expect it to break if there was a crash involved. Clean breaks at the joints == manufacturing defect in my book

Should have done this with my Trek 2000, when the shift levers fell off. Epoxy failed & left me shiftless in the mountains.
Of course, that was a bit before Ebay. Or the internet, for that matter. ;-)

Har! I looked at this bike & now it's showing up on my FB page in an Ebay ad that asks "Still interested?".
Gotta love the 'net.
