I've wanted one of these for years, hardly see any come up for sale; let alone the 66cm.

This is a great looking frame. 64cm Schwinn with smooth welds and wishbone stay

Considering selling our tandem. Steel Orbit with cantis and drum brake, great condition as it hasn't had much use from us or previous owner. I'm 6'6 and Mrs Hobs is 5'5, great fit but i wouldn't suggest either are much taller. If anyone is keen I'll add more details.

Hi guys
Anyone got a veeeery big drop handlebar gravel/adventure style frame lying around with some hefty tyre clearance? After something to hit the trails with. I’m a biggun at 6ft9 currently riding a Canyon Ultimate 2XL and a custom steel Argos (not at the same time)
Thanks in advance! -

I am a mere 6 foot 6 and I have tried a 2XL Canyon and it fits very nicely, I would have thought that at 6 foot 9 a 3XL would be more to your size...? Depends on torso length, leg length and proportions..i suppose

Sorry, yes I did mean 3XL. It was a frame VERY kindly donated to me by another big fella from LFGSS. The bottom bracket shell had come loose from the carbon frame so it had been replaced under warranty.
I managed to get it down to Argos who kindly glued it back in. I realise it probably won’t last forever but it’s a good fun ride while it does!
I’ve read that the 64cm Specialized Diverge is probably the biggest gravel/adventure bike out there but they’re a bit out of my budget. I always keep a close eye on what Conor Dunne who presents GCN is riding as he’s about the same height as me but never sure if he rides Canyon and Orbea cause GCN have sponsorship with them? -

Not sure if I've posted this here before, but there's a lot of big bikes listed
You can filter out road, mtb etc
-
• #1887
Yeah I’ve seen that, it’s a really useful guide. I was unsure of how updated it is since most of the bike manufacturers seem to be from 2016-2018 but I do see the occasional 2020 frame in there.
I was hoping one of you guys might have one that you wanted to part way with. -

If anyone is wanting to hit the trails on a full suspension set of wheels this one is pretty hefty and ending on eBay this afternoon!

I believe Conor was riding custom Condors painted to match the rest of the team
-
• #1890
Was he really? When he was riding for AquaBlue or while he’s at GCN do you mean?
-
• #1891
Unsure, only what a mate (of mine) said, given he was previously at JLT-Condor it wasn't a surprise

Ahh I hadn’t seen this. I’ll give it a watch. Thanks @190-215GPa
I’ve been looking faaar to much at custom titanium frames for a gravel/adventure bike. I totally can’t afford it but can’t stop perving haha
