Allegedly a 2011 roubaix pro- except that 2011 bikes had internal cabling

And the 2010 bikes had a different colour scheme

It is a 2009 bike, with a sofa saddle- just like all the serious riders have....and to be honest there is precious little info, which makes me think the owner is either a thief or a halfwit, or both

    Hmm...someone who seems to have money to spend on an ipad but not know the difference between then and than. Very dodgy indeed.

    Point is that someone is selling a near pro level bike without knowing anything about it, even when it was built. Or is trying to mislead a potential buyer by passing it off as 2years younger than it is. Either way, not the way to advertise on eBay I,d say......
  • hmm 'then' and 'than' could be an iPad just auto spelling.

    I just dropped in to this forum as I have been looking at 2nd hand bikes and there do seem to be some dodgy descriptions on Gumtree for women's specialized bikes. Thought I'd check if anyone's had any stolen.
