hey curtis and all,

there is a very cool looking Pogliaghi track frame (undrilled fork crown) on german ebay that ends tomorrow. past the cut-off period but maybe not by much.

http://ebay.com/<blah>

i emailed the seller about me bidding, an idea of shipping cost and arrabging payment and he responded promptly with

> It wouldn't be any problem to send it to the USA and it would cost 36 €

having just agreed on another bike i wont be bidding but he seemed pretty straight up and fair so i figured some here might be interested. i assume the dots in the email are in place of euro symbols.

it certainly is a distinctive frameset even if made by rossin or others. if the price is right .....

thanks

ciao,

ben kamen NYC
