For sale for $500, google says the wheels are worth more than that. Concern this is stolen or just someone who realizes the bike market is starting to level out?

Seems way cheap to me. Are those 100% carbon wheels or just aluminium rims with fairings?
If it would only sell at that price I’d be parting it out – more hassle selling but more profit. That said I’ve picked up plenty of cheap high end cycling gear off the ” more money than sense” brigade – people taking 105 off a brand new bike to replace it with Dura Ace or selling OEM wheelsets and tires etc

I would guess stolen but someone could be that hard up for cash.

The details listed are correct and description is not misspelled except for the word derailleur, which has been insultingly anglicized to “derailer.” I don’t know what Ceramic Speed Idlers are, but I’m assuming by idlers he means the jockey wheels, stuff that a common bike the common bike thief wouldn’t recognize. My hunch is that it truly is a guy trying to sell it fast, making room for new toys in the garage. Plus he took a decent bike pic and knew how to stand it up on a helmet.

I’ve seen similar ads on FB and they always ask have a nice conversation but something is off…
Like one said he didn’t have the bike, it was at his ex wife’s house and he would have to meet me there or another one that wanted me to send in a$100 deposit to hold it

Text is factually and syntactically correct except for 622ml (milliliters?), so it’s *probably* not a stolen bike.

Meh 5 years is pretty old in the bike world. Could need a ton of work too. Also a lot of folks with bikes like these have plenty of money to burn and don’t want to deal with many people. Could just be a great deal – if it was a scam I would think they would use a newer bike.
