SOLD: Argos track frameset 52

Sooooo

I have this lovely Argos track bike which I raced years back as a u14 / u16. Over the last year I've started to use it down Herne Hill, but it's a 52 and well too small, causing niggling-to-moderate back pain. And hence the bastardisation to make it bigger.

In pretty decent nic. Bought off Luke Rowe's dad, believe it was peddled pretty rapidly by Luke at Newport for a year of his youth, in about 2009

Ideally I want to find some freakish situation where someone has a circa 55cm (I'm 5"10) frameset for a straight swap, or swap + up to 100£

Aware fishing frowned upon by the forum but beg you have mercy, I am a financially humble track lover looking for a ride

Normal paint chips, no real dings
BB replaced last year runs smooth
Forks drilled for brake

Nice looking frame, is that 853 tubing?

Yeah bro, 853!

If it helps, I’ve got this going.. I’m not really looking for a trade any longer since I’ve just bought myself another bike closer to my size (if only you had posted this earlier!) and this is also alu and 54, though with the pursuit bars I’m fairly certain you’d be able to ride this (I’m 5’7” and they’re much too stretched out for me) but if you’re interested I could swap this then try to shift yours/the one I’ve just bought? Full disclosure - it’s not in the best of cosmetic nick (ding on forks and cable marks on head tube) but it rides well! https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/355349/#comment15869107

If you guys wanna buy something, be quick, cus the Hunter is online and he’s looking for dealios

Hey @youClown thanks for the offer, however looks a bit agressive for my poor aggrieved back! Good luck my friend

Given that amount of seat post you’ve got showing I’d have been hard pressed to tell :p all the best with finding a frame - I had no luck trying to trade a size down either!

Pm’d

still available?
dont have anything to swap; how much will you sell it for?

Hey everyone, this is back on for sale now I've sorted a ride for myself...

Frame details as above, used and appropriately battered but in decent nick

Now with;
Alpina post and Selle Italia x1
Look Keo Max 2 pedals
Deda Zero bars
Miche Pistard black with Zaffrino rubber (running 49 x 15)

I'm looking for £350 all in ONO / some racing aero wheels for track + some £££ thrown in / workstand and cash

Don't wwant to split atm
