Looking for a friend - 54cm vintage steel frame with 30-32mm tyre clearance, thinking something 70s-80s designed for 27" wheels. 531, Columbus etc. Braze ons for mudguards a plus. Something like a Holdsworth, ideal. Old steel CX frame would also work. Nothing too fancy!

Collection or postage to Bristol

Thanks

How about a 1994 Trek 520? It's a complete bike. I'm just outside Gloucester.
It's currently got 700x30c Schwalbe Racing Supremes but it will take 1 32c tyre with the mudguards. Might be easier to ask how tall he is so we don't waste each others time ?

Thanks sounds interesting. He's about 5'9". Definitely normally rides a 54 CTC square frame

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
