add a nice front wheel from roberto and you'll have a cool machine

mmm nice .. would fit me too .. don't know if I can deal with having *two* yellow bikes though.
Apparently *some* people, (I'm looking in your cyberdirection, Buffalo Bill) have an issue with yellow bikes...

This guy obviously doesn't realise what a nice thing he has there. He could probably get $500 for the frame if he took all the crap off it.

who else is watching this?!

would a dent like that on the top tube affect the alignment of the frame?

geez, how short are you?? nice bike though, even if it went for $USD200 it would be a good buy.

Puma Fixed Gear 101

The same item for free courtesy of Google search
http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=puma+fixed+gear+101

I emailed the seller to ask him if it could be downloaded from one of those various sites for free. His response:

It can. How do you think I got it? This is america after all. A hipster and his money are soon parted...

wanker

Why is he a wanker? If someone buys it without doing their research then that's their problem. It's the same as people who pay above retail for secondhand stuff on ebay (which happens quite often). He's not lying to anyone about where he got it and he's not misrepresenting the book.

sorry, fair do's

lol, don't hate the player, hate the game.

he's not disclosing where he got it, either.

caveat emptor - yes.

but i generally find this kind of blatant exploitation of others' naivete rather distasteful. working as a financial journalist, i spend most of my days trying to simplify things which are largely intended to exploit others' naivete, so it's rather an ingrained sentiment of mine.

ruined by incorrect use of the word "retro"

agreed.

and would you buy something off a seller named 'funkyponce'?? Not too much offence intended funkyp :P

and what's the the 'rare head tube sticker'? wtf? it's a sticker and it's been stuck!

Wait a minute! No fscking way.. I 'raced' this guy out along Uxbridge rd one night. Even told him about the forum. Wtf was his name? He flatted as I continued home.

how did you find those gems? I've been looking all day :(
Also the first one i'm particularly partial too.
But i must stop. At least until i'm in japan. yay!

liking the lugs on the armstrong, Gonna have to get myself something vintage like that. Is is me or is it harder to get anything old in the 52cm range all seem a bit bigger

i spent a lot of time trawling ;)

there are small older frames, the ones above are my size. although, people tended to ride larger frames than now. so a 52 is like a 48-49 today.

here ya go
