Decent pics...........................THOUGH!

This seller just needs to learn a little bit more here and there. He's not doing bad on the # 49 crankset, he dosen't mention the model but it's still up to $ 199.-...................Now! I better go out a snag up all of these mid level Peugeots and Merciers with these # 49 cranksets, they are here and there all over the place, I know of 7 or 8 right now and they are had for a Jackson.....................Yeh!........I know nothing is guaranteed! But what the hell.................Might as well!............Or else they'll all end up in hell!
