FS: 58cm Appaloosa Double Top Tube Disc Brake

[eric swain]

Hey folks,

Some of you may remember I tried selling my Appaloosa back in 2020. Well at that time I decided to keep it, change a few parts, and have really enjoyed it since then. Fun bike to ride, great set up for commuting, running errands, dawdling around the neighborhood, and general bicycle shenanigans. Fast forward to present times: my quiver has grown to a ridiculous amount of bikes, my personal riding focus has shifted, I have a new bike on the way, and I may be moving soon. I do not have room for every bike and with a potential move I need scale back on large items, like bikes. So this one is back up for sale!

I am asking $2000 as pictured(minus pedals). Including the Outershell Wald 137 basket bag, Makeshifter Snackhole stem bag, Zefal frame pump, Paul Gino light mount, and King cages. Bike is located in Portland OR. Test rides are welcome. Boxing and shipping is no problem. Here is a link to more pics and the geo.

Nice. I find disc-brake retro-equipped Rivendells rather interesting; I know another person retrofitted them to a very nice Atlantis.

Who else has done this, and why?

Me, I like discs for dirt riding tho' they don't add anything for my pavement riding.

When thou didst not, savage, know thine own meaning,

But wouldst gabble like a thing most brutish,

I endowed thy purposes with words that made them known.

Bump. 

I'd also part it out. Frame/fork/headset/seat post/front rack/stem $1000.

[eric swain]

Sold.

[Johnny Burrell]

If you sold it parted out, I'd love to have the Mark's front rack.

[Eric Swain]

Sorry, Johnny. Sold the bike as pictured. Those racks pop up on here every now and then, be patient.
