• Hi all,

    Two frames for sale! Both are brand new and unused - replacements for a previous frame that cracked and was no longer in production so ended up with these. I don't have any use for either. Looking for quick and easy sale as I don't have much storage room! Would prefer collection from South East London, but if you want to arrange a courier to elsewhere I'll cooperate with that.

    Pic of both frames - here.

    I have provided spec and RRP below, but as is always the case the RRP for the frame on the VN website is a bit over the odds and framesets from fatbirds (for example) are about as much as the VN frame RRP. I also have a used VN seatpost that I would throw in (first come first served) if you want it, warning it is the most fiddly seatpost you'll ever own - see here: link.

    Boreas - spec on VN website - size 56 - caliper break. RRP for frame is £1,500 but you can get a frameset for that on fatbirds. I'm asking for £800 ONO.

    Skeiron - spec on VN website - size 57 - disc brake flat mount. RRP is £1,700 but again you can get a frameset for about that on fatbirds. I'm asking for £1,000 ONO.

    Reviews of both the frames can be found in all the usual places. I can't comment on them as haven't actually ridden either.

    Cheers!

  • Both lovely frames!
    Think the rules state you need to put a price which can have ONO.
    It's better for everyone.
    Good luck

  • Fair enough - have added in prices.

  • Lovely... Both in my size, sorely tempted to replace my Scott with one of these. Do you have approx frame weights?

  • Hey, no I don't. Boreas feels tad heavier (scientific lifting with arms test), but then you'd cancel any of that that out with the disc break set up. I have seen a few specs for the Skeiron that suggest a factory build is about 8.7 kg. I reckon the Boreas built up with middle of the road stuff might be 9 kg? You could save weight on both of those with better wheels and forks etc etc.

  • Thanks have dropped a speculative pm

  • Could you collect from Camberwell/Peckham area?

    I may let the ad sit up there for the next day or two to see what offers come in but I will definitely consider it.

  • Yeah could do cash on collection if you have no better offers

  • Closing this advertisement as I need to clarify some things (missing parts) with Van Nicholas - will re-post when confirmed.
