Unknown Pursuit Frame -
I don't really want to sell this but I have to sell to support something else. I wanted to sandblast then repaint leaving just the gussets and with no filler but right now I don't have the spare funds to do it. I am in no real rush to sell but make me a reasonable offer if you want. The only info I can add is that it must be french made.
----- Quoted from previous threads ----
I got this off the forum and it's had a few owners on here (threads might still be around)
It has this J.C.Ruffier decal over the paint on the top tube which one of the previous sellers claimed wasn't a builder but the owner of the frame, Ruffier is a french surname and the BB is french threaded fyi
Centre to very top of the seat tube - 59cm
Top Tube: 580(diagonal from seat tube to head tube) maybe 500 (Effective) The drop from top of seat tube to head tube was something like 200mm
24" front, 700c rear, internally threaded seattube clamp, Paint is an absolute mess in a lot of places, the pink highligher wasn't me, damage to the paint concentrated at the bb shelland head tube but it's pretty much everywhere. To keep it rust-free I nail varnished over all the areas where bare steel was exposed with a peachy transparent varnish which I can remove if it pleases the buyer.
French BB which means options are Phil Wood, Velo orange, Threadless or Old stock as far as I can remember. It came with a pretty long (maybe 127mm) three piece BB which was good to go but would need an older stronglight or campy pista crankset to give the correct chainline,
Headset and bottom bracket removed as they were in bit of meh.. condition, but still have them and have some seatposts you can have from the previous seller. Also included in the price is a 24" clincher front wheel with campagnolo mirage road hub.
I need to take photos tomorrow when there is some decent light.
