• Going to bump this long standing thread. While I eventually managed to sort myself out with a Columbus Ego my best mate is looking for something too and need to get it done for his birthday in May.

    Brief as follows -

    Tubing -
    Max, Ego, MXL or anything aero profiled or different but has to be steel - No alu or carbon thanks. Even reynolds 631 with the fat dt would potentially work.

    Can be either road or cyclocross style.

    There was an amazing yellow Sigma (roberts) cross frame with straight forks on ebay I loved but forgot to bid on it last year and been kicking myself since.

    Size -

    Top Tube - 56cm ctc max . 55cm ctc would be ideal
    Seat Tube - anything around 56cm ctc give or take a bit

    Details -

    Fillet brazed preferred. 27.2mm Seatpost.
    1" Threaded Max fork straight blades ideally but I have a spare if it comes with curved fork.
    700c front and rear
    BSC Threads ideally but not against anything else really.. even french threading is fine.
    Tyre clearance needs to be at least 28mm

    Origin -
    Any brand, country or style tbh.

    Paint -

    Anything works, the more ratty the better as I assume will be cheaper. The plan is to respray anyways.

    Budget -
    Up to £350

    Please attach photos to replies or via DM along with prices. I am based in London and happy to pay for post if its needed.

    Thanks
    H
