Item number: 7234238173 . I don't know why in the world you would post this much information and not tell us the number, the link or the name of the bike. A simple cut and paste of the information brought it up. Lou Deeter, Orlando FL

I don't want to reveal which Ebay ad has the attached because I imagine some of the CR crowd is watching this auction. One of the ebay selling chains currently has a bike up for sale and the following are the attributes of the bike:
Bike is in good condition, but it appears to have stayed in the garage for awhile, so it will need some cleaning and adjusting before use. The brake pads have some life to them, but they will also need adjustment.
* Reynolds 531c Fork Blades, Stays, & Butted Frame Tubes * Campagnolo brakes, cranks/pedals, & derailleurs * Tires: Schwinn 700x25mm * Avocet seat * Rims: Mavic G-40 * Frame Size: 61cm * Standover: 85cm (33-1/2") * Crank: 175mm * Top Tube: 59cm (23-1/4")
Included are wonderful photos of saw dust on the bottom bracket, a flaw on the saddle where a piece of scotch tape must have sat, and some cracked gum rubber hoods.
Probably one of the better ads from this group. The one thing they left out is that the Campy groupo is a 50th anniversary groupo on the bike.
Sheeeesh!
