well the deal is done. i have brought the ugliest bike i could find on ebay for the cheapest price possible. it has a new saddle and new tires [so they say]
heres the ad description and image

RACING BIKE
Road bike older style recently serviced with new tyres,tubes and saddle ($30) would suit someone who just wants to get to the station or is not so fussed about the look of the bike you ride. This bike rides well and shimano gears work with no problems.
bike can be picked up in the Penrith area or Granville.

its awesome. after downloading the image from ebay and realising the image name is fbf7_1.JPG i have aptly named him Fb. my usual branding will always entail a capital “F” then a lower case “b”.
look at that paint job, no man will every steal this from the station [nor woman]. first thing will be to strip the spokes of the coloured paint using steel wool. then onto the upgrade planning. i am thinking BB first with new cranks etc… then back hub and rim. followed by front hub then rim… etc.

stay tuned

today i attended a metting about a new tv that samsung are going to release shortly. it was such a bizare meeting. the client seemed as though they knew what the “idea” was but they had no way of communicating it correctly.
the above the line agency out of korea had created a TVC the featured a wedding. in the grand scheme of purchases i would highly debate that the women within the family structure would be the TECH person, although i would definately admit they would/could [notice order] be the final decision maker with regard to “cost”

im not happy. i have bidded on about 4 bikes so far and no joy. evey bike is going for what i would imagine to be a price that isn’t really worthy of the result.
i will keep looking but tomorrow i am going to do the blaxland 2nd bike seller job run. hoping in an of change he may have a track bike witch is in working order.

after repeated atempts
via mobile e-bay and cpu ebay i was unable to purchase a second hand road bike that i felt was worthy of converting. i had a buget and all candidates when over what i felt reasonable. i will keep trying.

i am just going to continue posting my favourite fixies here.
