WTD: Super nice steel road frameset / bike - ideally 57cm - not super spendy

Hi,

As per title. Looking to get a nice classic steel road bike again after a few years away from cycling.

Back in the day I was really into steel road bikes and had some nice ones (Gios with full C-Record, Colnago Master, Cinelli Supercorsa etc along with lots of British built bikes.).

I am not looking for anything specific, this is for cycling in good weather in the park with my daughter so just looking for something in excellent condition paint / structure wise (no beaters thanks!) and in my size which ideally is 57cm c-c toptube.

I have enough parts to build up a frame and forks so ideally just a frame but am potentially open to a full bike.

Anyone got anything interesting?

All the best,

Joe

@retrodicorsa ?

@Glws thanks for the shout out!
@shushuwheels I have a few options, I will DM you 😉

If you want something more modern but steel I have a Chesini prima in Columbus spirit frame.
565mm ETT
It’s this one:

By ‘this one’ it’s the actual frame in grey/blue in the pictures.

Could work?

I've got this Coppi gathering dust - Columbus Genius tubing - probably 56cm TT, 57cm ST but I can measure properly if you're interested?

I've got my Bob Jackson - ideal for the usage you've identified - pretty much everything on it is new or NOS, built to be easy to maintain in the long run - here’s a couple of pics:

DM for more info 👍
