Quax Trials uni-im thinking 250. Its about a year old. Great tire life left, right crank is just cosmetically damaged.(pedal grab side)

Nimbus Learner- I'm thinking 60. I got it for 150. Comfy seat, handle, missing spoke, good condition.

Vintage Uni- I'm thinking 15. Totally awesome! I don't know how old it is, has a Seatpost like the new KH one, at least 30 years old. Cleaned up, it would make a great artistic piece. Rideable.

U.S. only Canada maybe. I'll get pics later. I might raise the price a little on the Quax. You pay shipping. I don't ship untill I get the money. Still deciding if I want to sell. Let me know if your interested.

Maybe you should decide if you want to sell BEFORE making a post?

Once you've decided to sell, you might want to decide on an asking price BEFORE making a post?

Or wait, did you want me to offer you $250, and then have you "change your mind" and demand $300 once you know I'm interested?

I won't even mention the ambiguity on the photos or shipping to Canada.

Sigh. These kinds of posts are getting old.

Not parting yet.

If you want, for an extra 20, I'll clean and tighten it up for you. I have a magic process that makes scratches nearly vanish :). Available for pick up too. If you come to N.E. trials event, I'll be there. (preferred before then, because I need to get a new trials. )

If nobody buys quax, I would maybe buy it for $200. And as said as above, what size cranks and are they ISIS?

Pff sorry, but that's kinda lame. You should tighten and clean it for free before you sell anything, don't charge another $20 to do that.

by clean, i meant work on some of the scratches, and true the wheel.

Yea I would think you should do all that work before selling it

Listen, if you don't want to buy, get out of my thread. seriously. And if you don't want me to clean the scrathes out; don't ask me for it. Now please only post if you want to buy.

is the nimbus ISIS? The picture makes the cranks look a little crooked. Is it just the picture? What might shipping be to Colorado?

I don't think the nimbus is isis, that being said, its beast strong, you just need pretty good form to handle 6 sets and stuff. The cranks are bent like 1mm, its not that bad. Shipping would be less than 40, but if I got it realllllly packed up together, like 14. I'll try for the latter.

Hmm. Bent cranks (possibly the hub spindle), broken spoke... It sounds like you have put this uni through the ringer, and who really knows what condition it's in. I think you would be better off coming clean on the condition of your goods before you expect people to jump at the chance to have your "well loved" equipment. Bent is bent. I've ridden bikes that felt terrible to pedal, but you couldn't even see the bend.

You are selling a uni that needs wheel work, and new cranks (at least). Well, maybe one new crank, but who knows? Not me, certainly not from your listing.

I am looking for a uni that my wife can use to learn, and pretty much just tool around on. Yours may be the right cycle, but at this time I am leary of what might show up in the mail a hundred dollars after the fact.

I might take a chance on $60 shipped.

I might settle for 70 shipped. Trust me, its in pretty good condition. The cranks don't feel ben at all. I'll get more pics tommorow.

2 questions
1. Why would you want 50+/- year old spokes?
2. If I part it out, it would break most likely. The seatpost is pretty neato, it looks like this. I'm not kidding.

$70 quax wheelset without cranks (considering it's ISIS like you're saying) maybe, if you decide to part it out
