eBay and Craigslist finds

they have a split ferrule like a stem, you do it up from the top...and then add the saddle.

bingo.

Well, that sounds like a pain in the ass to adjust, mighty unusual and sexi and not likely to get on with my girth. :)

actually not really a pain in the ass, if you're thinking about those with the bolt go on the top of the seatpost that tend to be obstructed by the saddle, however campagnolo for instance placed their here making it more convenience;

Erm..

I thought this was funny... BIN is 100

And on a different note I've thought about buying this twice now but can't justify the price...

Even though its probably as rare as hens teeth and would look so nice...

That's the one. Nor can I...
sigh

Wouldnt that be outrageously dangerous?

Plus it has the same colour scheme as a MASH

Having just bought a Planet X frame before Xmas to avoid the VAT rise I'm slightly pissed to find they have knocked 15% off it for a week starting today grrrrrrr!!

20% off any order over £600 too....

Give them a ring? Always worth a shot and it's not too uncommon for shops to give you the reduced price.

Wouldnt that be outrageously dangerous?

Not if it is done correctly.
Best and cheapest way is to use a seat post with expander (like quill type handlebar stem).
Not that dangerous is a seat post is used that is long enough (passing top tube and seat stays connection and a few cm extra for safety). Very inconvenient tho'.

The seller is honest enough to show it on the picture and to describe it:
[FONT=Arial Black][SIZE=4]"...Frame has small split at top of seat tube which can be easily welded or modified prior to a proper spray job..."[/SIZE][/FONT]

and... gone!

that's fast...

Fuck it. One I've been watching since it was listed...

....BIANCHI Specialissima SLX frameset 1986

....its past the £250 limit I set myself (based on selling everything I can).

Pretty much my ideal frame... not sure why I'm suprised or so gutted... just felt like having a winge.

Somebody from here pls buy it.

^^ tidy

Any guesses as to what it'll finish at?

within 28 days you're pretty sure to get a lil' summin back. i did the same with my iPhone. Bought it the day before they dropped £100, got the funds back, or maybe it was a credit note, but hey, better than nowt

Yeah adoubletap, if they won't give you a refund but offer you some merch, get some Honjos out of them and flog them to me...? 40mm please.

worth a try ;)
