crazyface:Keirin frames are so last season in SF.
Has to be custom or NOS italian for those frisco kids.
Word. Hipsters are a fickle bunch...
is 30 a fair price for a deep v rim?
edit: used
Rims have a limited life. They can only be trued so many times before they're dead, and only braked upon so many times before the surface is worn. Besides any possible aesthetic scratches and chips, a rim that has been knocked out of true / retrued so many times that it is approaching death looks the same unbuilt as one with life left. I'd be wary of anyone selling a used rim whom you don't know personally.
But yeah, good condition, $30 is a decent prise.

Yea but you guys have some of the best Custom Builders in the nation. If you want cheap NJS frames wait a month or two and theyll be "flowing like the salmon of Capistrano"
Eh. I doubt that. Look at Pistas - owners selling them barely below retail with a year's use. I don't see keirin bikes dipping down in price much at all when there's a next big thing because people will try to compensate for all the money they put into it and sell it for what they paid.
That's what I did. With some upgrades I sold my Pista for more than I paid for it when stock. Track bikes depreciate slowly.
I think some roadies operate on the paradigm that if something is more than a few years old, it's obsolete, hence the rapid depreciation vs. track bike stuff.
I'm hoping that thanks to that paradigm, I can snag up a real cheap front Ksyrium SL SSC from 5 or 6 years ago at bottom dollar...

Look at the vivalos, they flooded here in the states as soon as the NJS was out the window.
Come winter around here, all the track frames will be on the market.

"Sunshine Professional high flange hubs(identical to early Suntour Superbe,Sanshin/Sunshine made the Suntours) flip flop laced 3x to Araya boxed section double eyelet rims, these are clinchers. "

AND IN MY SIZE!
And will probably go for close to a grand.
may or may not be explody, i'm no expert. but canada ebay = chance for good deal.
blah.
Jennx:vivalo 52 cm buy it now for $320
i should get this but probably wont.
vivalo lost NJS certification, hence meny bein on e-bay.
Jennx:haha damn...it'll fit me though. keep the frame, fork and front wheel.
That is a great bike and very under valued at $400 even if it is a decade old. Keep in mind it is a TT bike with vertical drop outs, so not a good fixie canidate. But if you want a stiff aero frame with vert drops, itd be killer.
white folks:vivalo lost NJS certification, hence meny bein on e-bay.
Yeah, its too bad its not NJS. That could put a damper on Jeezy becoming the first person to win a Japanese Keirin and doing a bar spin through the finish line.
convert to front = spins for days
or there's that one
Hey dudes,
I was thinking about getting this Brooks Swallow. What is a fair price?? What should I offer?
I don't know maybe you can try to ask for 10 or 20 lower.
http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/bik/746375030.html
intriguing. I like how tarck it is, despite the diminutive stature and foldability.

Anyone know any more about the shoes or pedals from the picture?
Ah I see.. "Lance II". Ethical question - is a great deal worth wearing the Texas state flag on your right foot?
kilo tt's buy it now for $307 complete haha
6 sizes

just more options, you can have threads cut into threadless, but you cant add steer tube.

some phil woods. think they're a good deal? $250
everywhere I've looked they're about $325 or so for the pair.
can i get some feedback...pricewise that is, i know their good. they're high flange. is low flange better? what's the difference, that's one thing I really don't know.

thebikebiz has the lowest prices on philwoods and the pair costs 280. the difference between high and low flange is weight for one. low flange also puts more stress on the spokes than a high flange would meaning the high flange is ultimately stronger and more durable
ok cool that's what i thought just wasn't sure.
they're not slotted, which oh well 14grams isn't going to kill me haha.
but those ones i linked to aren't bad, they say they're new but don't look it. unless those are justs fingerprints all over them.
nah they arnt new. but they are in perfect condition none the less. I would never buy a silver track hub set though. especially when they arnt cheap. save another hundred bucks and get the powdercoated phils =)

yah i think I'm going to get some black ones. the next build is going to be all blacked out with some silver accents. logo, headset, bars.
we call all black bikes "murdered out" in teh south they call them "niggered out" what a country huh?
