  • Unbelievably fed up with scouring ebay and gumtree. Please can someone offer me a small frame-set (horizontal drops/track ends). Anything considered. Not bothered about paint condition - as long as it's true and rides straight!
    For my GF who's about 5'7".
    Thanks!

  • what's your budget? Seen lots of frames 52-53 c to c, just need a little $

  • pm hilary stone he had a lovelt guerciotti slx 52 cm not very expensive for what it was

  • Cheers guys.
    Budget is about £100 i think. But that would have to be for something that doesn't need painting. Probably more like £50 so i can take it down to amourtex and get the coulour the missus wants!

  • i realised that the G was a road frame, sorry. but HS has loads of stuff

  • Just wrote on Hilary Stones wall. But He/She hasn't logged in for 4 weeks...? so i'm not holding my breath.

    Really nice frame would be welcome. But an older/more battered road frame would suffice.
    Any other offers welcome!

  • tika, you dont happen to have an email address, or other means of contacting HS do you?

  • one of the Hilarys isn't the real one, think they might be two, PM the one who started the thread with the 62cm waugh frame.

  • he is hilarystone altogether i think, i will have a look now
    you can try retro di corsa too

  • cheers. yeah, i was looking at Hilary Stone. I've pm'd hilarystone now...so we'll see.

  • retro has some choice frames at the mo, not seen anything in your size and price range though. Drop him a pm, very helpful guy.

  • I've got a 54cm Kuwahara Hirame frame from the eighties which is a bit big for me (I'm a girl too and 5'6"). It would probably need painting: it's a nice maroon colour but the decals are flaking a bit. Has chrome forks, lugs and a cool Piranha fish headbadge. Horizontal dropouts agogo.

    Will post pics if you're arsed.

  • Got a small swobo sanchez frame, about 51/52 in size. It's yours for £100. It's a year old, I've taken all the stickers off so
    you can pimp if need be. It's a good ride.

  • I have two smallish frames if your interested and I don't want a great deal for them. old puch frame, light weight. and a carlton ten frame. they are both too small for me. I can measure them up and send a photo of them if you want. rubbish paintwork though.

  • sorry, they are road frames. i didn't read that you wanted horizontal drops.

    Cheers, i'm going to drop him a pm!

    Also sounds good. What condition is it in? Is it painted or chrome?

    Road frames are fine as long as the drops aren't vertical? Could you send me some pics?

  • yeah, they are horizontal. but forward facing. non track stylie. Ill try pm some pictures to you tomorrow

  • it's not painted, it's chrome. Can negotiate with the price if needed.

  • Sanchez, sounds good. Can you send me some pics? Cheers.

  • I'll try and get some to you later, I'm at work at the moment.

  • I'll try and get some to you later, I'm at work at the moment. If not tomorrow.

  • Forms- If you don't like it, can you forward it on to me? I'm just scouring here for a track frame of exactly the same size!
    I'm finding the HHV hire ones very limiting (which isn't to say that I don't appreciate the use of them)
    Cheers, Anna

  • No problem Anna, will do.

  • Are any of these frames still available? I might need a cheap frame to suit someone who is 5'22"

  • What the hell is 5'22"? Surely that would be 6'10"...
