Dave Yates Condor

Condor touring frame made from 531 designer select and built by Dave Yates.

The geometry is quite long and low - couldn't quite get it to work for me.

Top Tube: 62 cm (ctc)
Seat Tube: 58 cm (ctc), 64.5 cm (ctt)
Headtube: 20cm

I got it from JingleJangle on here a couple of years ago, other than the addition of a headset nothing has changed, think I paid £145 so would like to get that back.

Collection only from Crystal Palace.

Glad this isn't a 55
GLWS, don't think this will take long.

Calling the talls! This is one sick whip, what a bargain.

Pm'd!

@ObiWomKenobi ?

cheers all! provisionally sold.

Just spotted this.

Would have bought it back!

Sick.
@boomboom Photo on the dave yates thread when it’s built, please!

Just spotted this.

Would have bought it back!

eek

Ah no sorry, didn’t realise you wanted it back! Blame my poor tagging skills...

Now sold.

Now I feel bad :-/. If it doesn't work out for me it's yours JJ

Will do @Skülly. I'm going to email condor tonight with the frame number to see if they have any history

Cheers @bt, nice to meet you.

thanks for tagging me :)

Curious to see if this has been built up please?!

Good timing.

Am waiting on a few bits this week, but almost there.

Will post it up on the Dave Yates thread when it's done.

Nice! 👌

^ lol, 10 months ago. Still haven't finished it and thinking of now selling it as an unfinished project.

Potentially / very interested if you do decide to sell, where are you based?

...would also be interested, if it was up for sale again... have been thinking for ages about getting canti mounts put on my current Dave Yates frame, switching for a canti DY frame is probably a better choice...

~~ Also interested… ~~
Jeez no what am I saying, it’s huge.

heh, I'm hoping to pick it up this week & flip the bits from my blue yates onto it as my commuter. need brakes tho & being indecisive - do m565 cantis hold up against moderns? are paul tourings too $$$? would v-brakes be too un-aesthetic? etc

V seems sensible. Silver would be nice. I loved the modern shimano cantis I ran recently, and easy to set up.
