Possibly the most ludicrously over-priced bicycle I have yet to see!

    but I'd ride it before the "England Football Team fixed wheel bike" that he's also selling
  • The seller - drummondbikeslondon is having a laugh with those prices!

    The Pinarello is a 'real' bike not some tarted-up scrap-heap special , whereas the Raleigh and the Townsend are just plain rip-offs. That England bike must be a contender for the fugliest bike ever - anybody stupid enough to buy it gets exactly what they deserve - the priciest piece of crap ever - talk about turd-polishing!
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
