As mentioned in my free wheels and tyres thread I have some free frames as well. probably enough between the two and your parts bin to cobble together a working bike.
First up a specialized globe hybrid like this, but dirty and old:
It has been in a covered shed exposed to humidity, but it's an aluminium frame, so there won't be any rust. It isn't very accessible to take pictures, but it's free so I'm hoping that's enough for someone.
Next some vintage carbon - a Time lugged carbon frame and forks, with headset, stem and seatpost. Once owned by the illustrious @PhilDAS but never built up. I had similar good intentions, and never got round to doing anything with this. It does seem to have a stuck seatpost, and there is something weird going on where the carbon meets some of the lugs. The paint is not in a great state either, and has been partially sanded off by someone before me. This would have been a great frame in its day, but vintage lugged carbon isn't always known for its reliability.
Will add additional frames below as I come to terms with giving them up!
As with the wheels, collection is NW10, PM me to arrange collection :)
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:
```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
