Hello.

Building a new bike this summer. I am looking for a nice-ish steel road frame, I'll consider anything that is good quality. Specifically looking for 90s as this seems to have been the pinnacle of steel frame production. Would like features such as internal cable routing etc.

I'm 6'1 ish so 58 is probably ideal. Budget negotiable depending on frame, but nothing crazy.

Show me what you got.

I have a 58cm Viner (steel) with the famous star cut outs (not crosses as lots of people seem to have) on forks and hole punched lugs. Fully kitted out with Shimano 600 and SR cranks. Am going to advertise bike on here once I've taken some photos but thought you may want to have a look first? Same bike as below. She's a beauty but have moved and don't have the storage space!

Let me know what you think

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
