Vitus 979 frame and fork, free to any home/non-ferrous scrap merchant.
I was given this frame a while ago and it’s sat indoors since. It’s in OK nick apart from one of the seat clamp ears has cracked. The previous owner had drilled through the seat post and used a bolt to secure it.
This frame is hence likely destined for the skip, but after Googling I did come across several ‘fixes’ of varying merit that had been done to similar broken frames, and it would be a shame to toss this one if it could be saved by someone.
Complete with new-looking 25mm seat post, crunchy Stronglight headset and smooth BB.
