Now that summer's rolling in I'm looking to build up something geared. I have a 1950s holdsworth monsoon, but its a tad long (57cm top tube) and I want something designed for 700cs and a tad more modern - for part-sourcing convenience and compatibility sake.

Seen a few frames on here recently, namely the '80s Gazelle AB frame that was on last week or so (had no funds at the time), but I have cash waiting now.
Ideally something european (but not too fused), 80s or early nineties lugged steel. Has to be designed for 700cs.

Something 55/56 c-t-c Seat and 55-56 c-t-c top tube.
And hoping to pay in the region of £80-150 (but might stretch a bit higher).

cheers.

Hi Lester, I have a Raleigh 653 tubing for £150. It is 54cm C-T-T so it is 1cm out. If interested let me know? link. http://www.lfgss.com/thread41802.html

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
