RE: [RBW] 60 cm Quckbeam f/f on ebay

2010-03-22 Thread Frederick, Steve
It's about as different as can be I'd say.  The QB is more of an all 'round, 
trail capable bike. Room for bigger tires, laid back geometry and the like.  
The RB-1 is a road race machine.  (certainly room for both in your stable if 
you like a bit of variety)

I've been really torn about bidding on this. The bike is only about 40min from 
my house,  but I already have a 59cm RB-1 that was modified to have track ends 
and canti brake posts that I ride as a fixed gear. 

Is the ride of quickbeam very different from the fairly excellent ride of an 
old RB-1?

Maybe people are waiting for the Simpleone for its kickstand plate. If that 60 
were my size, I'd be pouncing.

Not pushing it, not mine, don't know the seller, but was suprised to see
that this 60cm Quickbeam L'orange was still un-bid-upon (though a $600
opening bid required) with only ~4 hours to go...
