Fake Klein / Real Klein

I spotted this and it made me laugh:

The decal set must have cost more than the heap of junk they're stuck to.

So, I posted the link on the "I Ride A Klein" FaceBook group.... Only to have Gary Klein's wife comment on it and contact the seller. I bet the seller doesn't have a clue who Kirsten is, never mind Gary!

The Internet is a great place.

:shock: WTF. Even has an Attitude decal. Not one of Gary's best So must be a Trek Klein

I'm glad Kirsten is finally on the case. I wish she'd been more vigilant when I bought my Klein.

At least that yellow one is actually a decent bike

Most of it got sold, reused or gifted: just the badly repaired frame went south. All that notwithstanding, it's still the best looking, best riding Klein ever ...





... to grace my humble existence.

Person says they are no good at bike assembly, but they got the forks on the right way round. Pretty advanced for an Ebay BSO listing
