Hi all,
I've decided to part with my Batavus Professional frameset. I bought it from the forum a couple of months ago (here's the original thread http://www.londonfgss.com/thread31814.html) to build up, but around the same time I also bought a 1950s Macleans frame. If I had the money I would build up both frames but, alas, I do not. The Macleans frame is a more comfortable size for me so I've decided to keep that and sell this Batavus.
The frame is from the early-mid 70s, handmade in Holland. Rivaled the Gazelle Champion Mondial in its day.
Features:
The frame is structurally perfect and has no dents etc, however, there are chips to the paintwork and rust spots under the paint particularly on the toptube and downtube. It is still a very nice looking frame though and I think would look great built up as is.
Just asking what I paid for it, £75, which includes UK postage.
I accept paypal, cheque, postal order, or cash on collection (I'm in Brighton).
