For Sale: 1972 Alan SS

Hi,

I rarely ride it plus need the money for a college course so its up for sale.

It's a shiny 1972 ALAN bonded and bolted together alluminium frame and fork.

The frame has been polished and is now very shiny. It has a new shimano square drive bb, new shiny chain, shiny freewheel. Shiny GB stem and drop bars (the shiny risers you see in the pics are also included) and shiny ish campy veloce calipers. The levers are also (shiny) campy but I don't know what model. The headset is also a campy one which, although not perfect is shiny and works.

The brakes and drops are off as I wanted to try it out with the risers but otherwise all the bits are there to run a front and rear brake, drop bars etc including some nos campy top tube cable clamps, shiny chrome ones!

The post is a campag one, in good condition, shiny and topped off with a charge spoon saddle in black which isn't shiny.

The wheels are shiny, round and work. I have some brand new system ex hubs to go with the bike though so some tasty wheels can be built.

Any questions call me on 07736279426 or pm me.

Gavin

PS, thats rainwater specs not corrosion.

Size?

Thats a good point.

Err, I'm 5ft 9 and it fits well.

I must confess that I'm not sure of sizing on road bikes, any ideas what dimension I should mesaure?

Center of the BB to center of the top tube and center of the seat tube to center of the head tube.

These would be of most use to folk.

57cm x 57cm

Willing to sell the seat post and ship to NL ?
I can even trade at for a fluted Super Record seat post in the correct size 25.0mm.
Only problem is, that it has been shortened a bit, so only for those who don't need a very long post...

Oh, I do like the frame (it is shiny, isn't it!) , sadly no room or money for another one.

ill take the stem and risers if you do decide to split

what are the rims/hubs/tires on the wheelset?

The rims are weinmann, hubs weinmann, conti tyres (ultra gator skins or something) and old. They're true but the spokes are very flakey and bearings less then smooth however no play and converted to a solid axle. The rims polish up nicely. They're a cassette rear hub spaced and dished to suit a ss free hub.
