Wanted: 60cm+ Frame (cheap)

Posted on
  • Hi all,

    Looking for a little project over the christmas break.

    Looking for a frame for a fixed wheel project, from 58cm upwards, 60cm would be ideal.
    I will be stripping the frame and repainting it.

    Forks would be an added bonus.

    Max budget of £50, can anyone help?

    Can collect tomorrow (im based in NW london)

  • I've got a Claud Butler 531. I think it's a 23". Everything on it except wheels. Needs stripping, slight ding in frame, not too bad though. Yours for £50 posted. Let me know if you want pics.

  • I've also got a 1953/4 Carlton Massed start. 531. I think that's 24". Just frame and forks, needs painting. I'd want £85 posted.

  • Bonk, if aserota doesn't want that Claud, could you send me some pics etc,
    i'm really quite interested.

  • Will do.

  • It's a Holdsworth not a Claud.

    £50 posted

    Carlton Corsair 531. 23" I think.

    £60 posted

    1953/54 Carlton Massed Start 531. 24".

    £85 posted. Less headset.

  • I would have taken the Holdsworth, if it wasn't for the dent.

    Blowtorch to dent, length of tubing correct seatpost diameter, hammer if the fuck down and dent might straighten out, then pull tube back out of seattube. good as new*

    *I have no knowledge to back up this claim.

  • As far as I know, a dent in the seat tube isn't a problem. I got a nice little ding in mine playing polo about a year ago with no problems since.

  • Bob Jackson frame, fork and wheels for sale. 62cm CtoC
    Make me an offer?

  • Probably out of my price range, my project is kinda a beater,
    well midway between beater and main bike.

    How much anyway fruity?
    Preferably without teh wheelz.

  • still searching although budget can now go to £110 for frame or £150 inc bb headset & cranks

  • I have a Pearson Hanzo frame and forks, headset, bb and cranks you could have for £180.

  • I have a 59cm Sun Solo that's too big for me. Frame is in pretty good condition; some scratches, but no dents. Headset and stem seem ok, not sure what is worth re-using from the rest - one of the wheels seems ok. Only cost me £11, so free if you want to pick up from Chiswick.

  • thanks for you replies.

    Could i possible get pics of both examples? Im interested in both (for different purposes).

    Balmain, can you email over your postcode and ill see how i can get over to you, would like dibs on the bike if thats ok?

  • aserota - I won't be able to do anything until next week, but I'll get pics to you then...probably Monday.

  • aserota - first dibs fine, have pm'd you my details.

  • Hi,

    I have a red Holdsworth, complete bike but happy to strip down as far as you want. Send me a pm and I'll get you photos at the end of tomorrow, going to be tied up with work from early. Condition is pretty nice.

  • I've got a red Raleigh 62cm, looks nice, but unfortunately there's a crack in one of the rear drops outs. It's yours if you want it though

    Cheers
