New bike, top end parts, and popular marque should make a quick sale,
but no. OK, I really wonder about the prices people will pay, or in
this case NOT pay, for bikes. I saw this bike
http://ebay.com/<blah
and it never made the $500 reserve, Why? If this bike was full
record my bet would be the final price would have been in the $900
range. Maybe people are totally blinded by Campagnolo, and only want
Campagnolo. Mavic parts from the era are much rarer and function at
least as well as Campagnolo. Seeing this bike flounder. . . . I just
can't see a reason why it shouldn't have, except the word Campagnolo
doesn't appear anywhere in the ad.
Ciao,

Wishing he had $500 in
Santa Barbara, Calif.
