• Picked this up on a whim, but it's too long in the top tube for my porpoises. Orbit Caraway frame TIG'd in Sheffield from Ritchey Logic Pro tubing with a Tange fork. Classy/minging gold paint finish is good, looks to have had minimal use, some marks on the fork legs as pictured.

    The bike came with 26" wheels and was sold as a 26" wheeled tourer however I tried it out with a pair of 650B x 47C tyres/wheels and there was plenty of clearance (though you'd have to go smaller to get a mudguard in there) you will need a pair of V or cantilever brakes with adjustable arms to reach and some rim brake 650B wheels to put it together obviously (though I can help with the wheels/rims). Two bottle cage mounts, down tube shifter bosses, rack mounts front and rear, mudguard mounts front and rear, 1" head tube with threaded fork and takes a 27.0 post.

    Top tube = 56cm c-to-c
    Set tube = 45cm c-to-c
    125mm head tube length
    135mm rear spacing

    £70 collected Central or Streatham Hill, can post at cost I suppose.

    Will stick some pictures up this evening.

  • Some pics to show the clearance/'stance'. Other stuff not included, though I can offer some brand new handbuilt 650B rim brake wheels.

  • £60.

  • Nice quality frame at great price. The distance from brake pivot to rim in these pics looks very considerable, though. Do you really think any canti or V brake could manage this. I rather doubt it, but of course I'm just eyeballing a picture.
    GLWS though.

  • Yup.
