You ever wonder? (Read 2474 times)

	Anyone ever wonder why people take all that time to list the specs on their bike they list for sale, clean it, take pictures....and then forget to mention what size the frame is?! I can't be the only one who notices this. Happens all the time. Any theories? Oversight? Mtn Bikers don't obsess over bike fit like roadies? Scurvy?

	I wouldn't take what he said personally. He IS right. Posters often forget to list the frame size after listing all the other details of the bike.

Everyone forgets to list the size. It's just a strange phenomenon I guess. I personally don't care what size it is. Although saying it's 18" and then trying to call it a large is suspect.

	No worries! I just meant it as a lighthearted post and you'll notice it happening alot. Now we can bow out gracefully and leave this thread and others to more obscure trolling.

	I bet it happens at least 50% of the time. It's uncanny. I totally laughed when I saw this.
