• Thanks @Harry 

    Poitentially interested here!!

    My bike has jsut been vandalised by some idiot, it was locked outside and when I got back the frame had been twisted in to a knot. (see picture). When i got back it was upside-down wrapped around the D-Lock
    All of the parts are in perfect working order and so I was hoping juut to transfer them over to a new frame.

    It was this bike - https://www.flatharrys.cc/bikes/hybrid-b­ikes/2018-whyte-portobello-granite__2676­

    @tertius From what you can tell do you think that I could do a like for like part swap out? Its hard to know the exact measurements of yours with out the precise number etc

  • Yes, subject to a couple of things I can't tell from your picture you almost certainly could:

    a. crank fitting - my CB has a square taper bottom bracket fitted, if your cranks are not square taper you might have to swap your BB over as well - the CB is English threaded - edited to add having looked at the link, yes they are different so the bottom bracket will need to be swapped over, but they are the same fitting
    b. brake caliper mounting - the CB has IS mounts, so might need adaptors to fit your calipers; or you could buy my calipers as well which have the adaptors already fitted or I could just take the adaptors off and give them to you - having looked, I see you have hydraulic brakes, so you'll just want the adaptors if you don't have them
    c. seat post size - the CB is 27.2 - having looked they are the same size, so not an issue
