For Sale: Tange Infinity Merlin Racing Cycles Road Frame

This is a Tange Infinity Double Butted Chro-Moly Racing Frame enamelled by Bob Jackson's in Metallic Rosso. The forks are the original Chro-Moly steel, fully chromed. 58cm top tube cc, 59cm seat tube cc, 25.8mm seat tube diameter. Horizontal top tube when built up. It has old style rear drop outs which have enough length to run fixed gear if the micro adjusters are removed. The threads in the water bottle mounts and the bottom bracket shell are fine. There is a top tube nipple for long road pumps. There is a chain nipple on the drive side seat stay for hanging the chain when changing the wheel.

This was the first road bike I ever bought about 15 years ago. I used it for about 4 years and it's been sat in the garage since.

The frame tubes are in perfect condition apart from the chain stay bridge which has rust on it where the rear mudguard clips on. There are unavoidably some chips and scratches to the paintwork here and there. The chain stay is in really good nick because I covered it in insulation tape. On the drive side seat stay there is about 1cm paint chip down to the primer base coat (where it got scraped on a bike stand). This is a standard off the peg colour at Bob Jackson's so they might be able to sort out something to touch up, which is all this will need to look like new. The headset will need replacing if any serious riding is considered.

Offers of above £50, and the postage is £20 on top.

oh my... and i think its in builds size.

Dropped you a PM...

I put a mavic cxp 700c in with 23c continental tyres. The short end of the drop out is 22mm long. The clearance when the wheel was at the back of the droputs was 17mm (first photo). The clearance when the wheel was at the front of the dropouts was 7mm (second photo). So you have 10mm of chain adjustment if you're going to ride fixed. Either way there's bags of room for mudguards if that's what you want, because I only ever used this bike with mudguards on myself.
