    Will get the tune up specs and go over her.
    'Twas very comfy to ride and last night I was impressed by the headlight.

    hey no need to diss, GPX's they are the shit!
    I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.

    I hope you don't bank with Westpac? Pricks certainly ripped me with their international conversion charges. PayPal is looking far more attractive.

    paypal is about 3% i think, not too bad when they offer a decent level of buyer protection, a few places I would only use paypal for that reason.
