Here is an interesting eBay listing, a lugged steel Rock Lobster road frameset:

I have seen a couple of road frames built by Paul Sadoff (the Rock Lobster proprietor) and they seemed to be very well made and very nicely finished. In particular, I remember a very delicately filed Cinelli MR (or clone) fork crown and an "S" motif on the seat stay caps of a bike I once saw locked outside my office building. (Some of these bike messengers really know what it's all about.)

Can anyone explain this bidding pattern, though:

I do not get that.
