Here we have a BH Ultralight (and they've named it well ....5.4kgs!!) for sale in Walsall.
However, the pictures are nicked from:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2012-BH-ULTRA-LIGHT-700C-Complete-bike-Red-Madfi...
in the US where it is on sale for $11800.

I have reported it to eBay, not that they'll do anything. Arrest the ^%$&er.

Well spotted old chap - £3.00 deleivery too.

I really hope no one falls for it - though there are bids on it.

Gits...

Grunt, puff, pant and groan goes the old man - but he gets there in the end. ;o)

So the pictures are a copy, but is the bike for real? Is this just a paypal scam or would they have a stolen bike for sale? Anyone missing a BH? They don't seem to know much about it.

Either way those carbon spokes look awesome, but the carbon seat look a bit stiff for ones sensitive buttocks.

Cheers, G

Its just a copy with a 0 feedback account. So almost 100% its a scam. You'll never see a bike if you "buy" it.

I'm not so far from Walsall and my best mate is police. I'm bidding and going to pick it up with him ... in uniform!

..... Although, it would be a waste of petrol.
