Lovely frame and I can thoroughly recommend the seller as a great chap.

I will also include the drinks cage.

I am off on holiday on Thursday until 2 September...so if this is not sold ...I will get the frame stripped down and put up a new thread with fresh pics.
However...I will happily bring the frame up to London this Wednesday to meet at St Pancreas Station or Kings Cross Station.
Frame, forks, headset, seatpost and drinks cage.
£414 cash

A bit of further information after stripping the bike down...(pics to follow)....its mass (I am a pedant) is 2.5 Kg inc headset and drinks cage.

These are the Campagnolo brakes I would sell along with the frame.

I just love that blended lug thing he did.

It is rather a lovely frame and rather unusual.
-
Frame stripped down. Removed the seatpost. The seatpost tube is 27.2mm but the VO GrannCru is a very tight fit.Happily include the seatpost but it is quite marked. I tried a 27.0 seat post and it was loose.
So here are pics of the frame, forks and headset without chainset, gears and wheels.

Last lot.....if I get any messages when I am in Peru...I will reply when I have WiFi....otherwise on my return to the U.K. on 2 September. If there is no one wanting the frame I will then advertise it elsewhere. On my return, I will put up a separate thread with the wheels and Campagnolo Centaur Skeleton brakes.

I often struggle selling frames on here.....and this one is unusual a bit like Marmite maybe and though it is lovely it is not necessarily fits in with their plans.
-
Ah fear of ‘she who must be obeyed’? Sometimes you just do it...I bought a Ti frame to replace this and will eventually face the consequences...that look!!
No idea....Ron Cooper would only have used good quality parts...so they would be cast and not pressed.
But if you would like to talk about the frame...send a pm.
-
A pic of the seatpost...it is marked and free with the frame if wanted....long layback which is good for Brooks saddles.
My cat (Parsley) is not for sale!

About
Last offer on LFGSS: Ron Cooper Columbus EL frame and forks plus wheels, headset, seatpost and brake calipers
Posted by
@marxist_vulcan
The frame is quite beautiful and made in 1994 and includes RC 50th anniversary hand cut lugs (fleur de lys) and straight forks. Only selling because the clearances and too tight and it needs fairly narrow tyres and at 62...I cannot be bothered with that.
Please notice the rear of the frame.
I bought the frame on eBay and am not looking to make a profit but everyone knows how good the late RCs frames are.
Size...TT (c2c) is 54.5cm and ST (c2t) is 54cm and (c2c) is 51.5cm
BB is English threaded....Headset is Campagnolo Record threadless and the seatpost is a VO Gran Cru with long lush layback.
The wheels are Shimano Ultegra 6500 on Velocity Escape with Tufo 21mm tubs and includes a spare tub, tub tape and sealant both basic and extreme. The wheels were recently built.
Brakes are Campagnolo Skeleton (Centaur) and not what is currently on the frame...these brakes come with new and unused Swissstop brake blocks (blue).
Rear wheel size is 130mm...so can take 8-11 speed.
As for pricing...frame, forks, seatpost and headset is £435... but the whole lot...frame, forks, seatpost, brakes and wheels is £600 but happily sell the wheels and brakes separately.
Any questions just ask....happy to deliver the frame in a 50 radius from my home in Biggleswade and would include London but will post on my return from holiday.
