If you are interested in this bike frame and components, but wish to have different wheels, please ask. Wheels can be easily exchanged. Depending on the wheels in the description, you can go with cheaper or more expensive wheels – even no wheels at all. We will have to work out the price difference.

Shipping will be via BikeFlights. The bike will be properly packed to ensure safe arrival. It will be fully insured.
eBay now insists that the return policy that they had be inserted here:
Returns: All measurements may be a bit off. That said, great care is taken to ensure that the bike has been described EXACTLY and PRECISELY. As the bike is shipped insured, any damage from shipping will result in a claim. Please save all packing material to return the bike. In that situation – damage from shipping – you will be fully reimbursed – for purchase and shipping. Should you just have buyer’s remorse, you may return the bike at your own expense. In the case of remorse, a 20% restocking fee will be deducted from your total payment. This 20% restocking fee covers the packing and shipping costs of sending the bike to you. Given the care in writing the description and the quality of the pictures, any “item not as described” case is unwarranted. Please ask all questions before buying.
It has finally
come to this. You are buying a used
bike. There may be some new components,
but it is a used bike. All bikes are
ridden before shipping. The bike will be
disassembled for shipping. The
handlebars will be removed. The brifters
will be covered in bubblewrap. The ‘bars,
with cables attached, will be looped back over the top tube, which will be
covered with pipe foam or lots of bubblewrap, and attached to the top bar with
zip ties. Though this will help the
parts survive the shipping, the cables and housings will be stressed enough to
throw all adjustments off. Thus it is
likely that the brakes and derailleurs will need adjustment upon arrival and
reassembly. You will receive my phone
number to help with the reassembly and adjustment processes to ensure that the
bike works as it should.
The seat, seat
tube, and pedals (if included) will be removed.
They will be wrapped in bubble wrap so that they will not damage the
frame when they bounce around. The frame
and fork blades will be wrapped to prevent damage. The chain will be wrapped with the chain on
the inmost gearing. Note that to get the
chain there, the right brifter had to be working.
The front wheel
will be removed. The quick release will
be used to help protect the fork ends during shipping. The front wheel axle ends will be protected
with bubble wrap or foam which will be taped in place. The front wheel will go into its own cardboard
box next to the left side of the frame which is the the bike box. The right side of the frame will have three
layers of cardboard between it and the outside to prevent damage to the frame
and the drivetrain.
Bike boxes are
reused for shipping. There may be holes
in the box from a previous shipper’s poor packing.
To reiterate –
you are buying a used bike with a collection of used, and possibly new,
components. It has been ridden. It has been disassembled for shipment. It will need to be reassembled and probably
need adjustment before it will work as intended. You will receive my phone number to help
achieve this end.
If you expect
perfection, please buy a new bike from your Local Bike Shop (LBS). The premium price that you pay will help them
stay in business. Buying a new bike from
the LBS will allow you to have the perfection that you expect.
With dozens of
bikes for sale, it makes no sense to mislead, upset, or tee off any
customer. Please ask all questions
before buying. I’ll do my best to
answer.
Again, it’s too
bad that it has come to this, but that’s how things are. Ride Strong and Stay Safe!
