FS: 57cm Bleriot and 52cm Clem

[Ryan Nute]

Hi everyone: These are two great bikes but I have too many (and am considering an expensive musical instrument, so looking for dough under the couch cushions).  Let me know if you're interested in either of these.  I thought I'd spare you the description text by linking the CL ads below.  Prices exclusive of Shipbikes.com shipping or you can pick up near Seattle.

Thanks!

Ryan

Clem sold and coming home to SF, Bleriot still available!

That Bleriot is super attractive for somebody with the good taste and use-case to appreciate it.  If we could just spray some Metal-grow spray at it so it grows into a 59cm and I'd be on it!  

Whoever buys it, I hope they commit to photo-document all the great places they take it in 2022 when travel is a thing again.  Of all the places I've ever travelled, all of them would have been that much better if I had a do-anything road bike stashed in the closet just in case.  When I go to finally do a travel build, it's going to end up looking alot like this bike, but it'll cost 3x as much.

If I didn't already have a Protovelo and a Travelers Check, I would absolutely buy that Bleriot- might still.

Here's some S&S coupled travel inspiration.  One of my best days ever on a bike, riding from Menaggio, Lake Como to Varese on the Travelers Check (the bike that has paid for itself in airline fees many times over).  This is a tunnel on the bike path at Lake Lugano just before I crossed into Switzerland:

That looks amazing!  Unfortunately I'm not much of a traveler so this bike is kinda wasted on me.
