Default For Sale: Planet X Kaffenback Frame + Parts (54cm) !!$195.00!!!

With gas climbing I know everyone out there will be looking for a nice durable commuter frame. I have here the frame + most the parts you need for the low price of $149.00!!!!
$125.00 without the pedals

Well you might be asking yourself, "what can I get for this low price?"...
Here it is:
Frame: Planet X Kaffenback 54cm rattlecan silver w/ matching fork

Manufacturer website here

Actual Pictures here:

Brakes: Avid Shorty 4 cantis in black (upgraded pads)
Headset: Race Face Deus XC Silver
Seatpost: Bontrager Select
Seat: Specialized Body geometry or Bontrager
Seatpost Clamp: Generic
Bottle Cages: Generic
Stem: Generic Silver (a few sizes to choose from)
Cranks: Coda Black w/ Shimano BB
Front Derailleur: Shimano 105
Rear Derailleur: Shimano 600 Short cage
Pedals: Your choice of Crankbros Mallet M's in orange (for $15.00 more).

If you want to run it as a Single Speed I'll toss in a cog, spacer kit, and tensioner for $15.00 more.

So you'll need:
Wheels, tires, bars and shifter / brake levers... thats it!!

If you don't want any or all of the components I'm listing with the frame, a reduced price can be negotiated.

Local pick up is preferred (from La Mesa Ca 92120), however, if you want it shipped buyer pays shipping.

I'll accept paypal (add 1.5%), postal money order, or cash$$.

Scammers don't bother, lest you'll have some bad karma and get hit by a bus!

If you are interested PM or post here.

Thanks for looking.

Included with the frame purchase is the secret to my super green lawn.......


Actually I have no idea because we rent. I do know we probably pay too much for the water and upkeep though....

I'm 5' 9.5" with around a 31" inseam. I consider the stand over tight but the cockpit roomie.

Concerning CX Planet X's Website says this, " The Kaffenback - A true all rounder... even OK for a bit of light off roading..."

http://www.planet-x-warehouse.co.uk/...enback_38.html

so I would say probably yes, and its steel so its resilient.
