So there it was, freshly listed...the bike ive been searching for for months, it looks in fairly good shape although the listing is a bit vague,
The colour is right, but the only nagging doubt is the size..
It looks just about big enough but perhaps a smidge too small, so in order to ease the trepidation I ask the standard question to the seller:

''Hi, Im very keen on this bike, but could you please let me know the measurements of the frame. Ideally the top tube and seat tube lengths, thanks very much''

and I wait a whole anxious night for the answer to arrive the following morning:

''No I cant.''





looks like I wont be splashing out the hundreds this chap is no doubt expecting then!.

It will be because he hasn't stolen it yet

You could work it out roughly from the wheels, measure the diameter of the rim in the photo as a base for the scale.

He's ended the listing early! If it comes back on ill post it up.

My second question went something like:
''Its a fairly straightforward question, im willing to pay well if I can find out'' etc etc....

Answer:
''Its your size, made to measure for you''

:roll:

We have a section on the intranet at work where people ask for free stuff (tight bleeders most of them)

One chap recently wanted a bike for a 28 year old

One reply said they did have a spare bike, but unfortunately it was for a 30 year old
