says its a custom dirtbike yet clearly its a ltf

zero feedback, no description

looks to have reissue profile box cranks, s&m bars, pitchfork xlt's, stem, chainring, seat, seat clamp, g sport rims, khe tyres

seems very cheap considering the spec

You think it might be stolen?

dont know, just dosent sound right, wrong model of frame, no spec list, zero feeback even though he has been registered on ebay since feb 08

just have a funny feeling

have asked if i can collect and pay cash

[kev-s]

he's just replied

the bike is all ready boxed up to so i can post it straight away sorry postage only

The user name says it all "Shadow Con"... Definitely a scam.

Just a warning to anyone thinking of having a cheeky bid on this. I asked the seller to name some of the parts on the bike as none were listed in the ad. None of them matched up with what I could see in the pic. He said the cranks were MacNeil conjoined which they are clearly not, and that the wheels were cinima.  Steer clear of this one.

i knew something wasnt right, ive reported it to ebay but they have done nothing about it, hopefully the guy in the states whose pics he is using will report it and the auction will get pulled

Well I tried to report it on eBay but how bloody difficult do they make it.

So maybe I have, but I wasn't able to say why I was reporting it as I only got 3 tick boxes.



Anyhoooo I mailed the guy asking for specs, and collection.
Returned reply with a list of parts that clearly weren't on this bike.....

What a tosser
