[RBW] Re: For Sale 52cm Yves Gomez, plus WTB and/or trade

2022-04-17 Thread Bill Lindsay 
Indeed I am looking for a 58cm Yves Gomez, and I am still looking.  My 
offer stands at $1000 for a frame+fork+headset.  My 52 is claimed, and 
we're now negotiating whether I keep my build kit or sell the 52 complete.  
If I can find a 58, I'll want to keep my build kit.  Let me know if you've 
got one.

I know. Bill is looking for a 58cm Gomez, which is the topic I'm responding

It may be a supply issue. I've never seen a Gomez live in person and I 
don't think very many were produced before it became Cheviot.
