I have too many bikes. My wife and I are trying to cut back on furniture, belongings of all kinds in preparation for a retirement move. That includes some of my bikes. I've lowered my price for any of these from $1800 to $1500. Somebody out there is going to get a really good deal.

Bikes for sale are:

RANS Screamer with Draftmaster carrier

Yes Mr Wizard. The Encore is still available. My record of not being able to sell ice cubes to Amazonians or fire to Eskimos is in tact. I will be coming to Dallas soon. If you'd like so see the Encore I can bring it. Or I can bring it to the Dallas Senior Games if you are coming to that. Let me know.

Actually I'm heading to the Pactour in AZ week after next, so I'm going to miss the DSG (which is really a shame in timing)  I was thinking if its possible I could swing by Abiline (thats where I remember you living)  on the way out or back .. as I basically have to drive right through.   But if you are in dallas next week we can work something else out ..

That's the way it goes out here in Abilene......nobody comes out there unless they are on their way somewhere else! I'd love to have you swing by to see the Encore and test drive it, Mr. Wizard!!! Let me know....

All except for that "prettiest town I've ever seen" part. Pretty ugly is more like it. We like to say IT'S THE PEOPLE! [smiley=grin.gif]

Well I guess I deleted the original post. Was going to start all over again. Listen, who wouldn't want to buy an Encore for $1500??? That is the most reasonable price I've ever come across, even if I do say so myself. It is a very versatile bike--can be adjusted for pleasure riding or cranked back for flat out racing. My fastest Strava segment on a flat is 30.9mph with the wind. And I have chicken legs compared to some of you behemoths!
I've also solved the one thing that plagues many Encore pilots--hands having to have a death grip on the handles. With that solved, it is very comfy to ride for hours and hours with no hand fatigue.
So, C'mon man!!!

Reever, have you put this Encore on BROL? I don't think you would have any trouble selling it there for your asking price. I would be very tempted, but I just spent all my play money on the NoCom, that I can't ride still!

As you can tell by my deleting the original post here, I am not a computer genius. I don't have the slightest idea how to put an ad on BROL.

If not registered then register to Bentrideronline.com. Go to classified-bikes and list your bike just like you did here. You have to have so many posts before you can add a link or pictures. If you list it here or Craigslist, someone will probably post the link and pictures for you. If you have a young grand kid they will show you how! [smiley=vrolijk_1.gif] My 4 & 6 year old grandsons show me stuff all the time on my computer.

I'm not all that eager to sell the thing. If it sells, it's gonna have to sell itself.

I texted you some questions today! I am assuming you sent me pics from your phone.

Post by reever on May 27th, 2018, 1:27pm

Jason,

I read your text while out on a ride and then it disappeared. As far as I can remember you asked me how tall I was and how many miles I have on it. I'm a very short legged 6'2" ..... 45" X seam. I can't say exactly how many miles I've got on it. One HHH 100 in 4:41 and one trip from Chula Vista, CA to Nashville TN that was @2800 miles.  The bike is very adjustable and very versatile--very well engineered.

Reever - If you still have your Expedition, I'd love to talk with you about it.

Title: Re: Price lowered to $1500
Post by reever on Jul 17th, 2018, 5:13pm

I don't know where this went, but I thought I'd posted the Expedition had sold.

I am interested in the screamer if still available.  Can you send pics and specs to tjdale@me.com please?

Post by reever on Mar 12th, 2019, 2:46pm

will do tj...

I live in Abilene. I'm coming to the Senior Games this weekend at Texas Motor Speedway. If you are serious about buying it (by the way it comes with a Draftmaster carrier that I'll throw in with it), I'll bring the bike and carrier. Let me know.

Post by reever on Apr 18th, 2019, 9:38pm

Okay. I can't get any cheaper than this. Could, but I don't want to......I'll go to bottom basement prices for any of my bikes. I've got to get some money for moving to Florida.

Schlitter Encore--$1200!!!! (SOLD!)

HP Street Machine--$1000

RANS Screamer--$800

Fuji Aloha--$300 (SOLD!)

Surly Long Haul Disc Trucker--$1000

All of these are OBO, but it will have to be soon. I close on my Florida house on May 3. I move soon thereafter and will sell them there if I can't move them here.

Title: Re: Price lowered to $1500
Post by kingjason on Apr 18th, 2019, 11:06pm

Ill take the Encore! And maybe the Fuji depending on size and specs.

Title: Re: Price lowered to $1500
Post by kingjason on Apr 22nd, 2019, 5:53pm

Thanks, even though you bullied me into the Fuji with a great deal!  Trikes will make you lazy that's for sure. My first launch was a little sketchy but once I got rolling I was amazed at how well it absorbs chipseal. I was literally just loafing along and getting use to it thinking I was dragging. Got home and had beat my best Aero time by a hair. Not sure how but your seat location was spot on.

Glad to hear it Jason! Nice meeting you and your mom.
