Now, last time I thought I spotted a bargain and put it here, I was told it was a fake!

So, this comes with a warning I am no expert in road bikes, but if it's genuine, I don't see how it isn't a bargain!

Go on, tell me I'm wrong...

I think you should give up!

No idea if the frame is fake but a supposed S-Works road bike with flat bars and corresponding shifters and brake levers and other bits on there make me a bit suspicious. Looks a bit rubbish in general.

Looks like an old S works frame to me.

I thought a carbon s-works frame had to be worth the money, but looking at it I can't see how it is carbon.

This is so embarrassing..again!

😆

I hope you don't buy much on ebay. What bike do you 'think' you are riding? 😉

It's an old S-Works E5 by the looks of it that he's converted to flat bars.

Not a bargain. Give up. Why do you feel the need to post everything you think may be a bargain when you don't actually have a clue 😕

An original Gary Fisher S-works Zaskar Le with campag running gear, why do you ask?

🙂

As Njee says, it's an old E5. Not worth 350 imo.

I think you should keep posting. It's like a Fast Show character.

Show some respect.

You have taken a heavily caveated post where I already admitted ignorance, and decided to try to portray an air of superiority by trying to demean my post and escalate your own standing as some expert in the field.

"Everything" = 2 posts.

Yes, I am biting, but people like you annoy the **** out of me.

EDIT: Get the kettle on.

Now have an idea....I have a really crappy supermarket full suspension frame outside. I want to respray it and stick some big names on it and then stick it on ebay and see if it gets spotted 😀

Alright love, calm down! I don't know about fishing rods, so I don't post 'PSAs' when I think I've found something that may or may not be a bargain!

You carry on though, don't mind me!

Let me know when you've listed it and I'll do a PSA straight away. 🙂

well it's got a steel rear triangle and an aluminium front one so I might make it up to look like a Cotic Rocket 😆
