Lady in my wife’s gym class wants to sell this. Ebay comps are all over the place, but what do we think about the price for a basic Merckx with Chorus? I already told her to take new pictures with the tires pumped and the saddle jacked up higher. If the FB link doesn’t work, she has it listed for $1200: ![image](https://cdn.tarck.cc/original/3X/f/5/f589d96a309767662301507a4d9cf342c2d6d792.jpeg) ---

I have a very similar merckx listed for 1500 and based on response it seems appropriate. ---

Considering selling my 1985-86 Specalized Stumpjumper. It’s got nitto bullmoose bars, paul brake levers, stronglight cranks, RH rat trap pass extralight tires, brooks B17, and a nitto front rack. A few scratches on the paint but otherwise in good shape. Any ideas? ---

Kinda wanna buy this from a customer, absolutely do not have my finger on the pulse of used bike prices. Thinking of offering $500. 105 triple, smooth post canti, clearance for fat tires, front end is a little too tall for me but I can #slamthatstem. Would probably strip every single part off this and rebuild with 2x11 Ultegra and dyno stuff. ![PXL_20230623_201104905](https://cdn.tarck.cc/original/3X/9/a/9a2556d1338ab4b6b2fc5e90b8107a8206639a27.jpeg) ---

No clue. This would be a very pointless single-speed project for social rides so as long as it’s straight and without cracks, it’s good enough I suppose. ---

It’s presumably designed for 42-584 tires or smaller. So what tires would you ride??? :jan: :jan: :jan: :jan: :jan: ---

I wondered too. The description says “non-drive-side seat stay has bolt threading for dynamo-powered rear light or generator.” Looks like it’s probably in the right location for a bottle/rim dynamo but I don’t know what the proper place is for those things. ---

> [@EndpointBraden](#): > > For some reason, I feel like this and one of those Velo Orange eccentric BBs is something I NEED in my life. Tarck, I implore you, tell me this is a bad idea. That’s a great bike-nerd kinda thing to build. Sure, you could do a long-reach sidepull brake 650b conversion, but it’s much cooler to have a frame dedicated to the task with brazed-on brake posts. Needs a matchy frame pump! I guess that location is good if you need to shoulder-carry, but annoying if you want two sets of bottle bosses. EDIT: And I didn’t see that the [V-O eccentric BB Bois](https://velo-orange.com/collections/bottom-brackets/products/eccentric-bottom-bracket-bsa) are in stock! ---
