Amatuer riders be careful viewing this, it might be more than you can handle.
How is a handlebar adjustable :think: Maybe with a hacksaw?

that's F'd up...
The guy who wrote the spec sheet sounds like a used car salesman: "...car come complete with variable-speed spinning wheels *part of optional tire/rim package-tires/rims are not standard on all models".
What a douchbag.

He is selling it cause he scratched it :dead:

i was promised bar ends... i see no bar ends
Not bar ends, Grip EndZ! Or as you AMATUERS call them, grips.
At first glance i say scam, but he does have a 35 rating with good feedback. Wonder if its a case of a stolen bike? Or just a complete moron? Maybe he is just the lister? usually the true scams are 3 day listings with a member that is only a few days old and the auction is private. No reserve and a current price of 51 bucks? wonder how far it will go?....
the descriprions are awesome!
" EMRP Chain-Stay Cantilever Pulley System w/Dual Floating Cams!" - dual floating you say??
heres another funny one.... read the descriptions..... horrid typing, run on blah blah blah, then the high pressure... im gonna unlist it if the price doesnt go up. yea, i'd buy from you. Nice fork too.....

I was looking through his feedback, and I noticed he has none from buyers. I wonder if he hasn't sold anything yet or there hasn't been any happy buyers?

I should find this guy and find out more......
on second thought, I don't really care.

I watched that video twice. At first I was busting out laughing, but when I looked at it closer, I wonder if this person was drunk or mentally challenged.
He is riding a piece of crap down a 30 foot embankment with a runout into a staircase and he is not wearing even a helmet, obviously.
What got me thinking was how he was clutching the brakes for dear life. While I have become addicted to stupid bike videos, it is hard to believe this person had any sense, much less common sense, before rolling off the edge.
You might convince someone to head down a 10 foot drop, but 3 times that height is like convincing the same person to drop off the roof of a 30 foot building.
Anyway, sorry about the soapbox. Maybe this is just another case of Darwin...

v8? so brakes are engines now?
well actuall hayes V8 rotors do exist. this is it:

but he has the old one on the bike

btw its not a bad bike (except the fork, what isnt that professional as he says) but the ad is a joke.
best part for me is: "Completely Customized by Azonic for a Sponsored Racer!" and it has a Kona saddle on it :D

I think that bike might be too dangerous for me... :nono:
All I can say is that this dude is an idiot, who must not know too much about bikes. While the Recoil is a nice bike, the joker is making it sound like it is a one of a kind bike...funny nevertheless...

Hey, everything on that bike is annodized...it MUST be worth a ton!!
God, I actually used to want one of those forks. I'm glad things moved on before I could afford one.
Damn - i was winning at 7.50 for like a day!
I'm sorry, you must have at least 1 feedback in order to ride this high tensile, dual-wall'd, extreme advanced earth gobbling sponsored guy race machine!
Edit: !!!!!!!!

Equipped with a massive list of professional components you can’t buy for less than $6000.00
.........ummm ill do a quick adding brand new that thing is probaly $3000? AT THE MOST
EMRP Chain-Stay Cantilever Pulley System w/Dual Floating Cams!..WTF?
I didnt even know there was an Azonic team...if there was i didnt know they would ride stuff from 2003
I am sooooo buying this bike, I am going to sell my Canfield and buy this because this is obvisouly worth more, considering it is a TEAM bike thats more than $6000 stock. maybe he'll trade hmmmmmm
