Think @ma2med0z wanted something in 853/Donoghue not long ago…

He actually originally bought the frame from me!

If I had £300 I'd buy this straight back - one of the best track frames I've ever ridden, completely unique, and actually has a sloping top tube, lo-pro style.

Stop it, you're making me want to keep it. Aha.

Mate, I wish I'd never sold it, but then I have that feeling about pretty much all of my previous frames/bikes.

I just can't recommend it enough to anyone interested. And I didn't actually sell direct to @AMAC or even know the chap, so this is a completely independent recommendation!

Buy it - £300 is worth every penny for 853 Donohue steel!

Might have to take this to ebay then, no one interested here?

interested but would have to wait till pay day.....

No worries, I'll hang on a bit longer. When do you get paid?

12th of next month at the latest…..

Okay, I'll leave it on here for a few weeks, not in a major rush to sell and would rather it goes to a good home.

I just cannot stop looking at this!

It rides better than it looks

what @CalAmor said.. just wish it was a few cms more biggerer

Cheers for all the positive comments, best steel frame I've ridden and will be sad to see it go. Thought someone would of jumped straight on it but interest seems steady.

kinda tempted.... even though I have a new crankset and wheels to buy!

Do it! I have some Mavic Ellipse for sale. Could do you a good deal!

Sold.
