…that any auction title on ebay that includes any combination of the words fixed, fixie, track, or pista (50/50) is advertising overpriced toy bait?
(i.e. fixed/track/fixie/singlespeed for sale $900 dollars, for some piece of garbage 500 lb. road bike frame with all the braze ons filed down. duh.)
{{When will the madness end? I mean really enough already. We get it, you guys haven’t caught up yet, you’re still in the juniors, you’ll evolve one day.}}
{{{Also, if you must,must ride a track bike, just slow down instead of skidding. Its way better. Just slow your legs down and don’t look a herb}}}
{{{skidding, especially really far, always makes you look silly, especially if you do a cornball maneuver like putting one leg over the top tube when you do it, gawd. its revolting.}}}

It appears to be about a spaceman on a trackbike from the 50’s, who watches Alfred Hitchcock movies that travels through time to 2011 where he is hunted by a helicopter while riding by graffiti. Shit is real. Enjoy.

This is an interesting auction for a couple reasons:its probably NOS ((no, its got 1000k on it, see below)) , a majority of auction bikes like this are equipped with Super Record or Nuovo Record groups, this bike has a C Record group with Delta brakes, a Campagnolo Electa saddle (pump,pump,pump it up),and even the C-Record pedals. Its closing in on 14 hundred and fools are drooling.
If you win this and want to work out a trade for Landlords books, holler. Anyone have a guess on how much the final price is?
Auction Ends today after 6EST.
((The guy who imported wants it back. Seller’s Remorse lasts forever. ” I was the one who imported this bike into the US. I rode it a very little bit (less than 1000 miles)and then was silly enough to sell it and have rued the day ever since. You should point out that it has a Campagnolo Elettra saddle with air bladder, as well as the hard to come by C-Record pedals. If I had the money I would offer to buy it immediately. Is there perhaps a bike that I could trade for it? BTW, I am the one who wrote the history of Licinio Marastoni that you quote in your description. I own 5 Marastoni bikes. Steven Maasland”))
