eBay and Craigslist finds

Loverly (yes even the mudguards).
Real mismatch of components though. Why does it have a long cage rear mech?

I agree i was just looking at this for my road bike pretty much same ratios it would do better with a top of the range road derailleur

Not mine Jammy. I have a set built up at the moment, no way i'm selling them. I believe there are only 2 sets in existence.
Are they good?

Bunch of nice, new, steel frames.
Mainly 56-58-60 cm.
Fixed prices, but very low!
Located in NL, proces excl P&P.
No track frames, but almost all with horizontal dropouts for conversions or geared bikes.

I can help you with translation, but it's all pretty simple.
As a bonus, I'll take the Amstel Beer jersey.

This is a nice Scapin (no Sapim!):

I'll post pics when its built up.
you paid £240 plus shipping for a frame you are going to repair and get repainted? WTF?!? that another £200. too many stupid people on this forum.

Shitcakes. That was sold on ctc forum for £40 about a year ago. I nearly went for it and then regretted it big time. I need this but now it's gonna cost me a ton. Shit.

Nice!

I think the person who is listing this:

deserves some forum raid style stupid questions.

Wooo I am now the proud owner.

Have to agree. For the total cost you're (probably) going to pay, you could've got something custom made to your specific requirements. Pointless.

Lucky bastard. What are you going to do with it?
Put a decent wheel in it, gears, Shimano revoshift, drop bars, ...
You're going to have lots of fun!

To fork out the money out right for this frame new, well i couldn't do. i've already been quoted a reasonable figure for re spray repair and decals and its not that bad.

But i'll do that when i can afford it.

I'm pleased with my purchase. I found the fact you call me 'stupid' a bit harsh.

Your entitled to your opinion, you do throw it around alot though. Which can often be a sign on inadeqeacy.*

*I'm entitled to mine ;)

you payed over the odds for the frame ie £100+, for it to get re-painted etc = stupid.

thinking that a cheap paint-job will look or last anything like the original = stupid.

facts, not opinions.

Kind of inclined to agree. £240 is perfect ready to role frame money. Not fixer uper money.
Plenty of frame builders will do a basic 531 (or equivalent) frame for under £400 custom order, Geo and Paint of your choosing.

The paint job will get done probably next year (it won't be a cheap paint job. I never said it would be, i said 'reasonable')......

Thanks for being so constructive with your comments.

Jesus, stop trying to make the guy feel like a twat, it's his money he's spent, not yours.

sorry if i issed something.

Just an 'm' ; )

jiz and dog ganging up again. mayybe got got sentimental reasons. his father had one or he aways want one or been looking for same frame for many year and pay anything to get it back. we dont no. don't call stupid til he spraypaint it black.

Jesus, stop trying to make the guy feel like a twat, it's his money he's spent, not yours.

+1

with ebay, the "right" price is the price somebody is willing to pay...even if it might seem slightly over the odds (as i personally think all track frames on there seem to be at the moment)

changing the subject then (slightly), the modern woodrup's do look quite smart:

Lucky bastard. What are you going to do with it?

I am not going to do anything with it except attach it to my tourer. Should be fine as is. My kid's only 5!

Don;t know If I'm lucky or just stupid. But I want to start getting my lad used to road riding in the little country lanes, this is perfect. He's just learned how to ride a bike on his own, but this will get him used to what real riding is like, in parallel to his play riding in the park etc. Also need a reliable quick method of getting him to his current school that's a little too far to walk for a spell this year, 'til we get the place in the nearby school.

My kid's gonna have a Dave Yates. Nice lugs too!

Jesus, stop trying to make the guy feel like a twat, it's his money he's spent, not yours.

Cheers.

My last thing on this. i had a budget for a frame sugino 75 cranks and a bottom bracket. £350.00 was my budget and i thought it wasn't possible.

Picked up some lovely sugino 75's off of fastfreddy for £100.00 which left me a little cash to spare.

The woodrup came with a sugino bb and a headset.....money saved.

Longterm i may be down about 40 quid (after the fix and re spray). Big deal, i'll treat that as the APR for the summer of happy riding.

Thankyou gentlemen. I'm still smiling.
