THE DATA

• Top tube 565mm CTC
  
• Seat tube 630mm CTC

• Head tube angle 71-72° (I can check this if needed)
  
• Seat tube angle 72°

ABOUT THE FRAME

I built this frame for myself. Hence the alternative geometry.
I have a very long inseam and my saddle to pedal length is 1030mm. The short top tube allows for a long stem. Which to me is both aesthetically pleasing to me but also allows the rando bag to sit perfect with my decaleur on a Nitto M12 rack.

I am 6ft4" and this is an incredibly comfortable frame for me. At the same time it is nimble and light. The slack head angle combined with monster rake forks makes it eat all uneven roads while handling like a road bike.
Forks feature a Paris Brest fork crown and is ready for front dynamo. Forks have all the mounts for low rider rack etc.

The frame is powder coated by Aurum Finish in a deep dark chocolate brown that looks black most of the time. It has a few scratches from everyday use.

I will sell frame and forks, mudguards, black or pink cantis, cane creek 40 series 1" headset and Nitto M12 rando rack for £600 (£550 without Nitto M12) including all the little custom machined brass parts for mudguards and light and the brass top cap.

If you want any Hulsroy branding on there it can be arranged. I liked it all naked but I can sort a brass head badge or vinyl decals.

If you want a complete build I could build it up either as a porteur or rando for you for an preagreed price. But I'd rather just sell the frame set for now.

I forgot to mention that I have two dibs on this frame already over PM before doing this listing. They will get the weekend to get back to me.

Edit: only one dibs now

I borrowed this frame for a few days and I can honestly say I was considering getting leg extension surgery to make it fit because it was so fantastic to ride!

Just get the bloody surgery mate. I’m sure you won’t regret it ;)

so tempted...at 6ft with long legs this is too big for me right? :(

Would still look pretty amazing with 7cm less seatpost...

How about you try while it is still build up?

Or you tell me your inseam and I'll set it up to fit you and snap a photo?

Your legs are shorter than mine aren't they?

Top tube 565mm

I am 6ft and rides a 57cm top-tube on my bikes.

Saddle height can be adjusted, TT not.

Yes but there is a visual min seatpost required :)

Not if stem is slammed equally.

Not if stem is slammed equally.

That's not really possible with the brake hanger under the stem.

OT: Lovely frame, also too big for me. GLWS.

I love this, would sell my monster cross for this, I have a long in seam. BB to top of saddle 83cm.

Take it you wouldn't sell complete?

I want to use parts on my new GT Edge Cross.
I have a second dibs via PM and @platypus has first dibs if he wants. If none of those happen I'll get you a price for the full build.

Very handsome bike that one

Hey mate, thanks for getting back to me. I think I am going to have to pass, sorry, having ridden spotter’s bike which was too large for me this will be a step too far :( glws, it’s lovely

No worries.

Thanks!

Thanks for letting me know, will if it happens

This back up.
£550 inc the rack and headset.

@BUR70N I am willing to build this up for you or selling it complete. Please PM me and we can chat about it.

Bargain! Someone buy this beauty.

Thanks man.
I have had loads of interest, but nothing confirmed yet. So maybe it is too £££.
Either way I might just keep it :)
