Hello folks.
Still clearing out the cave, today's offering is:
A Tange Prestige MTB frame weighing in at 1.9kg
It measures:
Seat tube: 40.5cm C/C 45.5cm C/T
Top tube: 57cm C/C
Takes a 11/8" steerer
canti/v-brake only on the back
Takes a 27.2mm seat post
Cable routing for a top pull front mech
I bought this new and built it up with a 410mm A/C tripple butted Kona P2s that I still have somewhere. I raced it solo once at Mountain Mayhem (badly) and did a couple of rides on it before stripping it down. It's in good condition, no dents or chain suck. There are a few spots of rust but nothing bad, it's a champagey sort of colour (painted not plated).
So here's the deal. You collect the bike (Horsham, West Sussex, happy to meet you at the station) then you make a donation (you decide how much for) to the charity that has helped me via the just giving link here:

Long story short, I had cancer, it was seriously crap, the Olive Tree Cancer Support Centre helped make it easier. Now I'm a lot better I'm raising some money for them to carry on helping other people.
Full details of my story are in one of my other charity threads here:

I've moved on a couple of bikes and several frames already and the good folks of LFGSS have always been generous. So time to move on something else that I no longer have a use for.
Cheers,
Tad
