    The La Raza tig welded road frame made its appearance in late 1992. The original Raza was a pioneer of the sloping top tube design - Ross Shafer founder of Salsa was quoted as saying ‘I just put the tubes where they need to go rather than where history dictates’. The frames were built from a mix of Columbus tubing – it must have been pretty light gauges as this frame weighs just 1.60kg. I consider the La Raza frame to be one of the classic frames of the 90s - they are exceptionally sweet to ride and when we tested one on Cycling Plus magazine in 1992 we rated it as one of the best handling frames we had encountered.

    This frame is in excellent condition - there are no dents and the paint is almost perfect. This frames comes complete with all carbon fork - the headset is NOT included. And they are as rare as hen’s teeth in the UK...

    Carlton track frames are extremely highly regarded from this period - world championships were won on frames from the Carllton Worksop works and Reg Harris when making his comeback also rode a Worksop built frame albeit in Raleigh colours. This frame is an all out track frame with close clearances and steep frame angles though the front fork crown is drilled.

    It is in very sound condition  but does need a complete renovation - some one has trimmed the ends of the rear dropouts off - these are easily repaired by a good framebuilder.
    Carlton decals are available from http://www.hlloydcycles.com/  I can deliver it free of charge for the successful bidder to Argos Cycles who I consider to be one of the best frame painters in the UK.  Details on Argos’ prices can be found at http://www.argoscycles.com/renovation-pricelist.htm This will make one stunning frame when finished.

    This is really rather nice Condor road frame from the late 1980s or early 1990s. The lugs are well finished with excellent details - engraved head lugs, bottom bracket shell and seatstay eyes but the paint is poor. Decals are available. I can deliver it free of charge for the successful bidder to Argos Cycles who I consider to be one of the best frame painters in the UK.
