All bikes have been sold.









What is the size like on the Ascot?
The Ascot is 32" from the ground to the top tube. 35" on the Raleigh.
I have a guy coming over in 10 minutes to look at both of them…I'll update the post if he buys either one.
is the guy from grove city? :lol:

Might be too big. Let me know, I'm not too hard up for a second bike, but could always use a project.

Sadly I know what this refers to...
:D
ETA
I'll keep an eye out for a Raleigh selling at $300 tomorrow and an Ascot at $150 next week...
We'll see the Ascot back up on CL tomorrow for $130 :lol:
damn, you beat me to it :wink:
Well I got the Raleigh from a guy in Grove City…thus goes the Circle Of Life™
(I know the guy you're referring to though)
It was too tall for the guy who looked at it…what's up with these short-ass bikers? :D
5' 11 and I've had issues in the past hunting for bikes that fit right.
I am a dipshit. The Raleigh is actually 32.5" from the ground to the top of the top tube. I stupidly measured it the first time when it was leaning slightly. Physics are not my strong point.
And the Ascot is 30".

Hmmm....
700c or 27" on the Ascot?
Easy single speed convert?
The Ascot is still 30"…it wasn't leaning when I measured it.
I don't know if anything is easy on the Ascot…it has "American 3-piece cranks" according to a guy that looked at it already. One of the cranks is kinda tweaked too, but apparently you can put BMX cranks on it.
I don't know shit about converting to single speed really, I've just had other people do it for me.
Lotsa inquiries about the Ascot so far. I guess I'm going to spend my Valuable Bar Timeâ„¢ at home waiting to show people a $20 bike. :D
Aren't you right across the street from me? Come get this thing out of my dreams and into your apartment!

Blammo: Hot dudes with perfect hair/taste in music don't have to be good at science. People riding the bike can simply lean slightly. They already do this when they stop.
Roy, thanks for the suggestion. I will update the ad accordingly.
"Raleigh single-speed conversion, $130. Ideal for someone with a variable crotch length. No physics majors!"

That's cuz my crappy bike rawks!
Nothing gets people fired up like cheap piece of crap! Yaaay!
My favorite response so far was from the guy who "would stop by and pick it up tonight, but I don't think I could fit it in my BMW"
