Think he'll be lucky to get a buy it now for the seatpost on his other items. By same token the buy it now for the NOS Powerwings seems fair.  8)

Yep it would be built  ;D

i have to wonder at its nosness , the tech talk is stapled to the frame , not in the bag with the forks , it sure looks unbuilt IE dropouts and bottom bracket , but why polish out the ball burnish. spoils it for me

rippers arent that flimsy

mat hoffman rode one for a while. ok he broke it, but if it can stand up to even one of his riding sessions, then it will last a lifetime for me.

i've been riding mine for getting on for 4 years now, and i trust it fully.
