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.

Very nice frame, but the bb I sold to you with it was brand new :p headset was fine also I thought. This frame is crazy fun to ride. Someone snap up a bargain.

^ is that a disc cover with sugino stickers? looks really good

Yup. They look really good when done well to be honest

Yup :) Was sold on to a friend of mine. still got that cockpit if whomever buys this frame wants that kind of set up :)

Seen this frame around, absolutely love it! Someone buy it before I have to dig deep :D

Dig deep you wont regret it I am sure :-)

£325 for this weekend only

I can install the BB again which should fit most track cranks and give a suitable chain line.

I'm Interested but what's the point of putting the bb back if it was in bad condition. And isn't asking for Paypal gift contravening forum rules ?
Cheers

Nice frame!

This was mine many moons ago! Nice to see it again! Sick frame. Too much fun!!!

Looking back I should have rephrased that better, it actually functions perfectly just to my eyes its nothing special and needs a good clean. Its Stronglight branded. Just nothing special in my opinion.

I don't think so, all the forms of payment are there for the buyer to decide which applies to them best. Your post gives me the impression that your asking about the buyers security based on posting? so I should make some things clear to any future buyers of any of the stuff that I sell that -

If for some reason the product isn't as described or has a problem I might not have been aware of I will offer to remedy the problem if this is possible, or arrange for a courier to collect the item back and once it has been received I will issue a full refund.

If the buyer who maybe cannot see it in person and after receiving via post just doesn't want it anymore then they would have to cover the return postage which I believe is fair as my photos tend to be very clear and of high enough resolution to see what you are getting.

The same applies for cash/paypal gift on collection.

I try to be as clear and honest as possible. I have made numerous transactions here, from using bank transfers to paypal gift to cash in hand so have faith that I am not trying to bump anyone for a couple hundred quid. Speak to anyone who I have dealt with in the past and im sure you wont be dissapointed.

I wasn't questioning your reputation - I just remembered reading that asking for gift Paypal was contrary to forum rules.
I actually dibbed this frame when it was offered recently but the dibs was circumvented somehow.
Anyway I will have think - it is an interesting frame .

All the Best

Si

Sorry if that came across a bit moody, haven't eaten much today and lack sleep too. In all honesty the rules in this place have gone a bit >>>>>>

But if you want to have a look then let me know :-)

Don't eat until you nearly feint, then have a dice sized cube of cheese before you pass out. Classic dieting skillz
