    Hey guys,

    I'll be honest here.. I don't have much time to ride.. I impulse bought a Giant Talon 4 and a ton of gear a few months ago thinking I could get into this sport.

    I am within riding distance from the Laguna coast trails, really wish I could have gone for at least one ride.

    I must ask though, does anyone know how to post a sale ad here? I am apart of many forums but I am having a hard time searching for it here.

    Thanks

    I believe to post a classified you need a certain number of posts.
    But that may or may not be the case now.
    See how much help I am!

    Now go ride...

    Yeah 27.5 4. It is such a nice bike.. Those impulse purchases you know?

    I made a Craigslist ad but I feel like posting on a forum I can hit my target.

    http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/bik/4384710498.html

    That's the ad if anyone is interested..

    It is a Medium. I had a few biters on craigslist but they backed out because it was too small or too big.

    What kind of Nikon lenses do you have?

    I am about to upgrade to a D600/610 body so I need money to purchase some full frame glass.

    I am looking for a 50mm 1.8G or 70-200 2.8/4

    It's not for me, I ride XL. For a girl I want to take biking. I got a D60 body and a couple of lenses. A 50mm and a zoom I forgot the size of. Don't recall the f-stops either. Let me get her dimensions and see what size bike she needs.

    $850 seems a little too high for a bike of this caliber. $600 with all the accessaries included or $500 for bike only sound more reasonable.
    But you never know, I have sold stuff on Craigslist for which the buyer overpaid. Be patient, but really you should think about lowering the price. Several Giant Talons in good conditions are going for $500 now on Craigslist.

    Yeah I saw those Talons too, so I was actually going to lower the price later today.

    I am open to offers if anyone here is interested..
