For Sale Red very early Bike Friday (around 1995) serial number: F163. Somewhat of a collectors item per Green Gear Cycling.

I am the original owner. It is lightly used and always stored inside a house or garage and mostly used in Single engine airplane trips years ago.


It comes with the Samsonite suitcase for commercial air travel, or shipping, and has all the packing equipment (photo) which I will use for shipping with a box outside as needed.

I am 5’-10” so it has a tall seat post (adjustable) and handlebar stem (adjustable). These may be changed with the assistance of Green Gear, Inc.


Everything works


Includes: 

Suntour XC-Expert Front and Rear Detailers


Suntour Ltd XC brakes


Diacompe SCM brake levers


Suntour Barcon palm shifters


Kickstand


Rear rack: quick to remove


Front Specialized and rear Cateye Blinking Red lights (Rear needs new battery).


White Reflectors on wheels and yellow on back of pedals.


Loud Bell from India


It comes with a “Post Modern” brand shock absorber on the seat post.


The seat is Specialized  Body Geometry (photo)


Includes Vintage Manual


As the photos show the bike and red paint are in great condition.


The tires are not worn and are holding air fine but are several years old.


Asking $1,125 and will consider all offers.


It is in Boulder Colorado and actual Shipping cost would be added if it needs to be shipped.


Bike weighs 31.2 pounds with rack, lights, bungee, bell and kickstand.


Suitcase and cardboard box weigh (including packing fixtures for bike and heavy coiled cable for locking: 18.8 lbs. Total shipping weight is estimated at 50 lbs.


Shipping only to the Continental USA.    Paypal could be used for the transaction.

It's a beautiful bike, but there's no need to ship a new
12MB message every day to tell us about it, Dave. Your
message is visible on the web page, and everyone who
subscribed by email already has a copy.

I'm not sure about that price, either. The company shouldn't be shining people up about early Bike Fridays being "collector's items", this is not a thing.
