Klein Adroit 1993 Mardi Gra - $5000 (Wayzata,MN)

[tripledobe]

How do I measure the size precisely? I just got used to what I was told when I got the bike long time ago and never measured it. I am 5'7" so it felt right.

The frame serial number will say the size. But looks a 20'' Klein to me.

Usually the seat tube length identifies the size of a frame. However, Kleins are measured differently, and usually one does not understand people who are doing things differently at a first glance. So it's certainly better to ask than to "look and feel"

Here you will find a very good Klein-site, where Klein experts tried to understand it, too:

However, although these guys are really Klein experts, even they did not get it right, so you see again it is perfectly ok, not to understand Klein measurement, even at a second glance

Ask the Klein guys themselves and they will tell you how to do it right:

That Adroit is 20" / M

and yes, I would have washed it before taking pictures... pay $5000 and you don´t even get a clean bike...

If you decide to split, can I have the dirt?

Dibs on the dirt if kingroon passes.

All about presentation. Not even a Klein Adroit will sell if you don't clean it and take good pictures .
From the presentation so far you will be lucky to get a £1000 for it.
Also that is not one of the favourite Klein paint jobs. If Gator then their would be much more interest.
That size of frame is for tall people 5 feet 8'' to 5 feet 11'' tall according to 1993 cat.

Seeing as how you lot bang on about 'politeness' and 'being inclusive' without the 'attitude' of other sites all this conjecture seems a bit rude, especially as the sticky at the top states basically that you should keep discussion about the price to a minimum.

Some comments are bit cheeky but they referring to quality of add rather than price? Obviously, with $1000 price tag would be only serious interests, dibs etc. instead.
