different... This guy is misrepresenting what he's selling by implying it's

know that's not even close. A fair price for these would be $25-$65 (or

I don't know what really wrong with the bullmoose listing. Maybe a word
in the title that you aren't happy with (Rivendell) but I would say that
its fair to use it because if you want the current version / price of the
bars, that's where you are going to get them.

worth a try, isn't it. I have made two purchases from pb-guy - the main

That'll likely price me out.
If I wanted to set that frame up vintage, I'd leave it alone. I've had a
long time ambition to do a 650B conversion on a mid 80's MUSA Schwinn.
I've had a couple Paramounts, and was a
