Now that guy's (or lady's) Atlantis is for sale, too, with the story that 
he/she has too many Rivs. So basically I have no idea, may everyone get the 
Rivs they want at prices they can live with.

I missed out on the original ad (bummer), but this new clem seems like a 
fine bicycle.

Thanks Clayton for helping keep things in perspective.

Well it's like this. Old Days Joe would have more thoughts on this and stir it 
up bad and Cyclofiend Jim would eventually have to clean up the thread, then 
give up and kill it. With a pinned note up top there to remind me this was all 
a bad idea. 

But New Nice Joe is going to shut up now because he's already upset at least 
one person this week he'd really hoped to never upset, and we're all under a 
lot of stress and it's not worth it. Bye! ‍♂️

The question now is do I go get a great deal on a Clementine after having just 
sold a Clem L frame, the logic being I saved money because it's only $700!*

*The answer is I have a friend who will kindly tell me, "Good job, Joe, you

I think estate sale is likely. That's a 4-ish-year-old bike now, and quite

Yeah... that's an odd one. 
If you click through the site, their twitter link is dead. Nuthin' on the 
FB.
The company url whois says it was last updated in January of this year. 
It's a pretty roundabout scam if it is one.
Company url shows an...ahem... VERY different bias towards frame materials

The internet can be a very strange place.

Looks like a 650b/52cm to me.  I would doubt this is stolen. I buy and sell 
a fair amount of used bikes and I try to avoid stolen stuff.  Although the 
seller is clueless, that doesn't mean it was acquired illegally. I deal 
with so many estate cleanout and storage auction guys that do a quick 
google search on the biggest word on the bike and list it.

Also, I don't think they'd post the bike's VIN and their license plate in 
the ad if they were a criminal.
