• As title says, bought a track frame, turned out it has been in a head on collision (seems like, from the betn headtube) and also the forks have been damaged due to over-tightening of the front clamp-on brake (or something else going weird).

    Trying to recuperate some of the money back so selling parts off. For the frame itself, it has a
    pantographed headtube, fork and bottom bracket. Campagnolo drop outs and gipiemme headset (though doesn't feel 100% smooth). Ovalised columbus tubing (as far as I've been able to identify) so should be fixable for someone who can weld. Italian threading I believe. Size: 59cm.

    Condition wise was repainted by someone, lots of rub marks everywhere and on down tube by front wheel - I also sanded off paint by the headtube to look for cracks (and left some file scratches) but couldn't find any.

    From what I can gather, was one of the frames still made in Italy in the early 80s, as can be seen here, rather than the Canadian produced counterparts which were of variable and often questionable quality.

    Please note is it only the frame, fork and headset. Post/saddle/seatbolt not included.

    Thought I would try and sell it on here first for someone to fix rather than on ebay!

    Price: FREE. Location: around Stockwell area.

  • Forks are toast, so is the frame by the look of it, I would not tried to sell it, even for such low price. take the post and saddle off and sell separately.

    Unless there is a framebuilder in a desperate need for something to learn on....

  • Agreed on the toast part. Have amended to freecycle for the f+f, do need the space!

  • Where is the frame located?
