whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!
dude, these bikes look like shit!!!
man, before fixed gears got trendy, you could have bought these bikes for what they were worth.
twenty dollars!
not eighty!!!
you suck man.
you fucking suck.
i know you're trying to hustle some money (and that's fine) but you're hustlin the wrong crowd.
no one here will pay 80 bucks for a bike you fished out of a pond.
get the fuck outta here!

hah. look at the chain and seat position on the green fixie.
hilarious.

yeah why does the green fixie have the seat in "ball torture" position? Why is the chain falling off?
These bikes are all garbage.
The first 3 are 'Free Spirits' which are just as bad as a huffy.

your project bike could look like this with some time and new parts!!
UH HUH, RIIIGHT.
those bikes aren't worth the trouble of restoring or customizing.

I could spin on my back for pocket change and buy a complete jalopy from a meth-head cheaper than these.

OK, either you are just fucking with everyone or you are totally delusional.
if it's the former i applaud, good show!
but i fear it's the latter. the # rule: know your customer. what a pile of shitty shit! as in shit-tay. these "bikes" are horrible and probably hazardous to your health. if anyone does try to ride one of these bikes they are probably going to get hurt when they hit the first pothole.
shame shame shame on you and your shittily shameful shit bikes.

Yeah, bunch of crap, what do you expect from someone with one topic and three posts on MR. Opportunist. That being said, if he'll take $50 for some of those completes, that's reasonable for rehab projects.

you all clearly have no idea wtf your talking about and have no ethic of work nor restoring old bikes. Yes they are worth what they are. Some yes are not worth 80 again thats why i have OBO. If you dont want one then STFU
Some people want these bikes and you could seriously throw a chain on them and tune them up and give it a fresh paint job and the "budget bike... You could do something like this.
For instance several people picked up bikes today for 60-80 dollars.
One of the bikes I had looked like solid rust and was completely dirty and with some work and a few new parts it came out looking fresh. Haters.

For those talkin jive... You clearly have no idea what green is from green. None of the bikes are green and none of them are fixed gears. Losers!

yeah not the bikes im selling... I was referencing to how the bike looks. Color scheme its pretty hot. Yes that bike needs some tuning adjustment on the chain, adjustment on the seat.
Please if you do not have something positive to say move to the next forum.

he's probably a crackhead at an internet cafe. you'd have to be high to think these bikes are worth more than $20.

This guy found a way to sell crappy bikes with key words of "fixie, fixed, SS" and so on. Nothing new. People have been doing this on CL for a long time. It's up to the suckaz that buy them to wise up and learn. If they were smarter, these snakes wouldn't be around.

regarding a bike that doesn't have pedals: "this ones in riding condition as is."

Yes, a department store clunker can turn into an NJS bike if you think about it hard enough and squint your eyes and use your imagination.

How do you get a non-lugged frame to look like a lugged frame?

Dude, all of those bikes are total ripoffs.
Rusty Free Spirits and Huffys for $80?
WTF dude? That's pretty weak.
In PERFECT condition those bikes would be worth maybe $80-90, and most of those bikes would need $50-60+ just to get into marginal condition, much less decent condition.
Most of those bikes have one piece cranks, which means that you'd probably have to get a new crank / bottom bracket if you wanted a fixie conversion with a reasonably straight chainline.
Leave that garbage on craigslist, and don't try to rip off your fellow ridazz.
That's what up everyone.
