Jack; I was cruising the web doing my usual Hetchin's search and noticed the advert which I think you're referring to. Below is the URL to the advert on Craigslist.

I called as well and if the bike is mint why the seller using a stock photo on Craigslist, and willing to email photos. He might be honest, but seems a bit fishy. Plus the advert has been around for a while. The only way to buy is if you know someone close by who could check out the bike and purchase it for you. My thoughts !!

If the fluctuation in model year and list price isn't enough of a red flag, I offered the guy $700 (this was on the 1974 $1,000 version from a few weeks ago). He accepted and I haven't heard from him since. Could be he's just playing the market or could be he's collecting numbers (*no emails*) for his boss at for 24 Hour Fitness. In any case, I'm not touching it, but I did manage to get a few fuzzy photos of it if anyone else wants to have a go. Hit me up off list and I'll share the pics. Other than some hideous bar tape (which I ironically just replaced on my non-mint '74), it does appear to be a nice mount.
