Spray painted Yellow, Gonna get a better paintjob on it tomorrow. Spin Front Trispoke and back Aerospoke. I need the right price in order for me to sell it. I put it together myself so know how much its worth.

just sell the wheels separately and donate the frame to Bike Kitchen (honestly)
youll find the sell easier... and you can probably get more the wheels. the frame is making the wheels look bad
You can see how much people buy the wheels for on other threads
the frame is worth like $25 if that...
maybe sell the bars separately too.

NO not stolen if thats what your implying. I wanted the yellow and black look for a while now. I was gonna get a new crank thats why I didnt mind spray painting over it.

md2 nailed it.
Aerospokes are like crack to people with more money than sense, so you can probably sell the wheels for $350+.
That frame looks like an old Schwinn, and as nice as an old lugged steel frame can be, they're not something that can bring in much money.
How did you get that wheelset in the first place?

nice job dude, it is an old schwinn. I traded my Nishiki frame for this frame, the Nishiki was way too tall for me. I didnt like the color of the schwinn when I got it. still gonna paint over it again profesionally. The wheelset, I got the front tripspoke for 200 bucks, and that back aerospoke I just bought at Palm Cycles about 3 weeks ago. I just put some hello kitty stickers on it and a "The hundreds" sticker on it lol

rock out.. then. Dont waste the time painting it... just sell the wheels and frame separately.
Not hating... but unless some kid who is drooling for an easy SS/Fixed conversion... the frame is not worth much at all.
Let me put it this way... just listen to me

Yeah don't bother putting anymore work into that frame. I don't know if its just the angle of the photo but the fork looks a little bent.

I still don't understand how people ride brakeless with platform pedals.

yea, I was gonna keep it and put it a bit more work. I was gonna get a new crank and pedals and maybe some bullhorns. but I'll just sell it as is. and no, the forks not bent. your right, its the angle of the picture.
