To the member of the CR List;

I recently acquired this bike. It is too large for me to ride. I ride a 56cm/55cm frame. The original owner, who I know, does not ride it no more for she has become physically challenged. I would like to sell it. This bike has not been ridden a lot. I am interested in knowing of its market value and find a buyer for it. I do not have pictures it nor a digital camera. I would need to make special arrangements with a friend to take pictures and have them sent to those interested person(s) for possible purchase.

I thank-you for your help in advance.
