1995 Killer V500

[IdahoBrett]

I really like this gem that came up for sale on my local craigslist. The original owner is asking $200.

I’d be on my way tomorrow to pick it up, but it is only a 17” frame. I see in the catslog it was offered in bigger sizes of 19” and 21”. Being 6’2” I’m guessing a 21” would be my more size. I don’t really know.

Great find. You could probably ride it with a long enough seat post but you might not like the saddle to bar drop. Hopefully someone in your family can ride it.

From experience, that tends to make my hands go all tingly.

I have the same problem. I've been riding a Trek that has grips with a wide flat surface for the palm of the hand. Really comfortable compared to round grips.

It disappeared from my local craigslist, so I assumed it sold.

This morning’s routine whilst drinking coffee and perusing the local classifieds revealed it is back up for sale and half off at $100. I’m out of town for a few days. But if is still there when I return…even if it fits nobody in the family right now…

I thought it was a steal at $200.

The fork alone is worth buying it at $100 IMHO. Not to mention the Coda crank.
