Klein adroit 1992 gator frameset size 19" with paul, Campy and powerarms | eBay

Campagnolo O.R. was manufactured between 1992 and 1994 so are very rare to find, specially shifters, as opposed to Shimano XT. The deal is with PAUL rear derailleur (1200 eur), and with Campagnolo O.R. front derailleur and shifters (400 eur).

Perfect for the crypto-billionaire in your life.

An awful lot of people seem to be assuming there's a lot of lotto winners desperate to buy old bikes out there.

Oh yes! Beware ...hes regularly on eBay Kleinanzeigen (Germany) as well for some months now. His location is "Bremen" - a northern City of Germany. But actually he is in the Barcelona Spain Area. Big scammer (A small group it was of 2 or 3 people) as we know from the KLEIN Facebook groups. John Rock is correct.

Avoid at all cost this scammer.

Pardon my ignorance; I'm not too familiar with Kleins, but other than
- the outrageous price,
- and the pickup in Barcelona "area" (What area? Where? From the back of a car? Sounds like a drug deal),
- and the lack of a linear fade,
- and the 66.7% feedback rating,
- and the fact that his eBay history spans a mere 6 months (he didn't waste much time getting a bad reputation),
Other than all that, it looks every bit a Klein. Perhaps a different Klein model repainted with Adroit decals?

All those red flags aside, am I missing something or is it just that the guy is a known scammer and nothing he sells even exists?

No, I'm not a lottery winner, although I keep playing, hoping that I'll win someday.
Someone's got to be a Winner, right? ...although in my case in particular, I suspect I know what that big "L" stands for...

There's nothing wrong with the Klein Adroit Frank, it's beautiful and highly sought-after. People have tried to buy it several times though, paid for it too, but this A*****e has multiple identities and is a scammer. You can read here if you want:

There's similar conversations on the Facebook Klein groups too. Very sad...

Imagine having something so expensive (it’s overpriced but still worth a decent amount) and never being able to sell it as everyone in the market for such a thing knows who you are.

Isn't that called justice, or karma?
