Thought best to give this it's own thread in the correct place. I hope that's ok.
56cm top tube.
Long story short on the rear caliper hole. The original caliper bolt seized to the caliper itself. The original owner (a mate) cut the caliper off and scratched the frame as you can see.
I drilled out the remainder of the seized lump on the pilar drill.
The underside of the caliper hole is untouched and a caliper still fits in fine as can be seen. Theres only minor/cosmetic damage to the outer side of the hole.
My mate had the stem slammed as steerer cut to suit. No headset included (tapered 1 1/8th - 1 1/2inch. BB is BB30. I also have a Selcof seatpost that came with it that will be in the sale.
Trying to be as transparent as possible with the frame. It's in good shape generally and will make a cheap build for £40. (Plus postage uk £25)
