I think you meant "more money than sense". That price qualifies for the other "NOT good deals/hot mess" postings

Trek 760 14 Speed Bicycle USA Made 58cm Frame - Reynolds - $650

I am selling a USA Made hand-built Trek 14 speed road / touring bicycle. It has just been serviced/refurbished and does not need any work to ride. All cables/components were serviced as required and all serviceable bearings have been removed, cleaned, and repacked with fresh grease. All necessary adjustments are made. Mechanically everything works properly; it shifts through all gears cleanly and quickly; the brakes are tight and firm; and it rides great.

Cosmetically it is in good condition. The paint is free of any major damage but has some minor chips/scuffs/signs of use. The aluminum/chrome surfaces are corrosion free and bright. The original decals are present but with some fading/peeling. The frame appears to be in good condition overall with no cracks or dents. Please see the additional photos below for more information regarding condition.

This is a nice vintage bike - I believe it to be a 1984 Trek 760. It features a frame constructed of Reynolds 531 manganese–molybdenum butted tubing with investment cast lugs and Campagnolo dropouts for high strength, light weight, and a responsive ride. It has sealed bearing hubs and hard coated tubular rims. Suntour Superbe Pro derailleurs, and a Shimano Dura Ace crankset form up the drivetrain. Brakes are Dia-Compe "Grande Compe" with new brake hoods. The seat is in good overall condition with a couple shallow/light scuffs, and the handlebar tape is new.

The frame is a 58cm in size and has a ~32.5" standover height.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Thanks.

Waterford Full Dura Ace -56cm $1,900
Selling this custom Waterford 2200, built out with Shimano Dura Ace 7700 STI 2x9 full group. The frame is sized as a tall-ish 56cm: the top tube and reach are sized like a 56, but the seat tube and head tube are extended a bit to allow a more comfortable bar position. The fit closely matches modern ‘endurance geometry’ for someone in the 5’10” - 6’1” range. Original custom paint: a beautiful dusty blue metallic. 18 lbs, as pictured. Lightly used, well-maintained, never crashed, excellent+ condition.

Second that emotion as Bonnie Tyler once sang. This guy has had this frame posted for a couple weeks now. I’d be willing to overpay by a bit given that it’s NOS but seriously? 4K+? Madness.

For real. Would buy that in a heartbeat if I were in the valley. Probably too small for me though now that I see it on my computer instead of phone..

If you were willing to facilitate and ride it for a bit before sending it my way, let's work something out!
