Also a couple little discrepancies. In the email to me he says the front wheel is an 18, on the eBay posting he answers a question about the front wheel and identifies it as a 19. Then there is this statement: "original seat was in bad shape.This bike always kept in warehouse and its very clean." [/i]It might be that I'm a retired cop, but the whole 'same winning bidder' and all the little things just add up to make this a bit not-on-the-level to me. ...just a thought.
