These just don’t seem to come on the market which makes me desire one even more. If yours ain’t getting ridden, I’d love to see if we can figure a deal.
Thx!

Hi Jeff. I have an orange , 60 frame and fork. It's built up with E bike components. I have a blue one also with regular components. I don't need two.
I'm willing to sell frame and fork.
DM me if interested.
Jon

Hi Jon,

It's a beautiful bike - and you've set it up pretty much as I would expect to do myself (minus Electric).  I'm in Arlington, VA - just outside DC.  

With the headset, bottom bracket and perhaps the seatpost if you would be willing to toss it in, I would do $650 plus shipping as you prefer.  I only know of bike flights via the Bunch; I think I've generally seen ~$150, is that correct or reasonably close?

And, Jon, nobody ever mistook me for a skilled negotiator, so let me be clear: I want this deal.  The seatpost request is just that.

What's next?

Best,
Jeff

I use ShipBikes - they use FedEx - which is generally under $100 for a complete bike.

In an attempt to help you guys sort out the PM feature..well..it seems to be gone. What I've been doing is posting my email to sell stuff, but it won't come through with the @ and . if people are reading the list on the Google Groups site. So I do this:

No worries, Jeff, it's not your fault. The PM feature here has always been a headache, then recently an update killed it altogether. Lame!

Looks like you have accomplished what I want to do--install electric assist on a Cheviot with room for a battery down low over the bottom bracket. Right now I have a front hub motor and 36 volt battery installed on a 52cm Clem L. Nice rig but I had to place the battery on a rear rack and that's not as stable as I'd like. Anyone with a Cheviot wanting to trade for a Clem L?

I will second the ShipBikes suggestion. Recently they have been coming in consistently and often significantly lower than Bikeflights.

I'd like to thank Jon D from Colorado for his first rate communication/attention during the deal we made for the exact frame I'd been seeking.  Still tuning, tinkering, but here's a sense of this beautiful Chev 60 in orange.  Thx, Jon!  My wife, who is smarter than I on most things, says 'fenders' but that will mean knocking down a tire size.  We shall see; I do love the Big Bens.

I used BikeFlights recently. There were damages even though bike was professionally packed. Customer service was fine but still, disappointing especially to the purchaser. I’ll give ShipBikes a try next time.

It was a pleasure working with you and I'm glad you are happy with your new bike.
