I've seen this dudes stuff on CL for awhile now. He seems to try to sell crappy bikes for way too much money. Stay local and pay cash once you see the bike in person.

Their homepage thanks Atomic cycles for their cooperation with some of the deals. It looks like some guy trying for an internet business or something. Winnetka is part of the San Fernando Valley here in LA and within the 818 area code, if he had listed his number on Keswick St. I'd pedal over there for you.

Paul Valera is trustworthy and many people on here know him personally. Call him or send him an email and ask about this whole deal. If he steers you wrong, he'll never hear the end of it from us. I consider Atomic Cycles my "local bike shop".
Get in touch with Paul and check it out first.

OK, I'm sure Texas has a few good bike shops and probably bike co-ops as well. Its always better to buy something that you've seen in-person anyways.
support your local bike shop.
good luck.

I call that guy the Bicycle Ghoul, and he's bunk. I have nothing to do with him and I've banned him from my shop, So I'd say don't trust him as he can't work on the bikes (I used to) so anything he sells is most likley garbage.
