WTB: Small Gravel/Cx frame

Hi all,
Looking for a geared 'gravel' bike frame/ frameset
Preferably steel, disc, clearance for at least 40mm and in a 52/54. (I'm 172cm).
The more mounts the better,but not vital.
Budget up to 250 and I don't mind something ratty as would possibly be looking to powdercoat.

So far I'm thinking something along croix der fer lines

Does anyone have anything they are looking to shift?

I’ve got a small Norco CX frameset going. All the mounts you want, and decent clearance for mud and/or large tyres. found it somewhere between a 52 and 54 in sizing (I’m 176cm, usually 54/56 frame) when I had it built up as a winter road hike for a winter before deciding it was a little small for me.

following on the subject of croix de fer, mine is a 54 but i am 179cm. i would not go any higher.
the norco above sounds bang on

Hey do you know what the clearance is on this? And what sort of price you are thinking?

Thanks that's really helpful to know

This was stock spec. The photos you see are with Conti CX kings in 35mm size, so plenty of clearance in there! Can dig it out and measure (with a ruler, accuracy not 100% guaranteed) after work if you want? PM me with where you’d want me to measure and I’ll send some photos over. Won’t be priced high, you’ll be doing me a favour at helping me clear out! PM and we can talk.

It may be a 2014/15 model year, I bought new end of season in 2015, used for one winter and a bit of summer and then it’s sat in a shed in various stages of built-ness for the last few years. Looking at Strava, it’s covered 600km 🤦‍♂️

Found a photo from the front with a 35mm cx king. Loads of room here:

This sounds like a great frame for what I want, but I think at the moment at least I'm set on steel.
Thank you for digging out the photos anyway

No worries! #steelisreal after all (I changed this for a Croix de Fer). It’s not going anywhere, so drop me a message if you change your mind
