I _think_ it's too big for me. That's what I'm telling myself, anyway. The 
fact that my Clem is irritating to carry on the train and the Quickbeam 
would make a great commuter shouldn't affect that, right?

If your only reason for selling a Quickbeam is "Just time to try something 
else," you'll regret it. But you'll also make someone else's rides 
fantastic! Grin.

OK, it's not the only reason. I think the Quickbeam is a little overbuilt 
for me at 136 lbs. While the ride is very comfortable, it doesn't beg to be 
pedaled harder. I notice it when I commute on my Landshark, which always 
feels like there is tailwind. I swapped the wheels, still the same.

2016-09-07 Thread Jay in Tel Aviv
I might be interested if you would be willing to get this boxed and ship to 
the East Coast.
Bikeflights estimates $60 shipping for a road bike.

A few questions about the build:
- Age / condition of the various components
- Crank length and BCD
- Is the 18 tooth cog fixed or free? I should be able to use any brand 
freewheel on the free side, right? 
- Which Phil hubs are those?
- What brakes, bar, stem? 

Looks like a nice bike. I have been running my Sam Hillborne as a 
psuedo-Quickbeam using an Eno hub. I'm curious to try the real thing.
