made me smile anyway

😆

not specialized, not kona, not giant

No s***!

What could you do to make that look worse?

With that swing arm I thought it was a prototype Orange Five?

At least the lawn looks healthy.
And the wall is in good condition.

What are you guys on about, its easy a £200+ bike. Its DH extreme to the max!!! 8) Especially with the mud guard or is that a water bottle. 😕

Found the same frame for sale too: http://www.pinkbike.com/buysell/1050239/

Love the Q&A at the bottom.

I feel a bit sorry for him. Lad at work bought a bike a bit like this as he “really wanted to get in DH racing” and its what all the pro’s ride. Sometimes I don’t know what to say to people!

Brilliant! I think he got it from that well known Valleys outlet W.E.Soryewcomin. 😆

haha thats brilliant. BTW, the frame on pinkbike isnt anything like that frame on ebay?!?

no its an orange 222!

A real kick in the teeth. At least the advert title is accurate of sorts, its not specialized, not kona, not giant not gt. No its not.

if the answer to the q is real then he has my sympathy, tbh.

Poor chap. I love the fact that a DH bike has bar ends.

He seems innocent, I feel slightly sorry for him.

Neither her nor me knew anything about cycling and it turns out it was a downhill bike?

🙂

those ebay sellers with there lovely ladies are at it again…

Ebay rockhopper (another one)

Yeah thats pretty good.

I admire this guys tenacity. He has been posting up the same 2nd hand Blur 4X for about a year and hasn’t thought theat the reason its not selling maybe has something to do with the price!

”The ONE for all bike”

That does read like a genuine clueless biker (in the nicest possible way). You get them all the time in shops asking questions like “why’s this one £4000 when that one I saw in Halfords was £180?”.

It’s entirely possible that his wife bought it at some department store or off some unscrupulous type and he’s basically been had. If it’s true, I feel quite sorry for him.

2009 bikes go for that much 😯

If it’s true, I feel quite sorry for him

This too, but expecting trading standards to do anything because he has paid over the odds (see Q & A in listing) is telling
