Coolio's,

This isn't a Malvern Star ... not even close. And the seller knows it isn't a Malvern Star either as they sought help to ID it on an Australian bike forum where the resounding and clear response was "no way, Jose". It is a nice frame however .. I just don't why s/he keeps on the with Malvern Star drivel.

ciao,

Ben Kamenjas Kensington, Australia
