Love the first frame! Can I have a look prior to purchase?
-
@soperiva - 56x44 with a sloping mtb geo so the long seatpost is less of an issue than the mercian - which incidentally looked so good after the respray i almost miss the little mutant..
@thecrane - if only you were a couple of feet shorter - why couldnt you have sold the burls a few months later when i was flush....
@bodieanddoyle - of course, sw1 or sw16 take your pick give me a pm and we can discuss details
@petrocks - track frames are meant to be smaller:) thats what i keep telling myself every time i get into another spine crunching position on a pretty frame...
-
ah, the grasstrack is 56 square ed, i'm not sure how it would look with a porteur rack though...
-
Why aren't you selling the 853 when i have money!
-
No mudgard eyes: http://www.lfgss.com/thread32688.html
yeah close up of the ends would be good so that i can put myself out my misery and just confirm that is doesn't have mudguard eyes

still riding high on my wheelset thread i'm pushing my luck and going for a second sale in six months, i'll try and keep it brief this time...
Custom built 56 square reynolds 853 track frame, built by andy thomson ex of islabikes. Absolutely as stiff as a very stiff thing and light enough to make people who've just spend serious money on carbon begin to doubt themselves. I love this frame but have to accept that i cant do it justice... **£250 chris king not included
1.bodieanddoyle,2.pistoffski and 3.harrymajor - [B]SOLD. to the most relaxed forumenger in the world, probably. good to meet you B&D **
[/B]
next up, the beaters beater, a converted scott mtb frame, 4130 tubing that has lived a full and wholesome life(a good few dents), chainstay and seatstay bridge filed-out to accomodate 700cx35, no paint, surly drops. Not so much bomb-proof as bombed out and begging for more...
seatpost included as the diameter is less than regular, plus its a natty purple black fade effect - £40
1.spotter 2.nuknow 3. porter7474 - spotter appears to have gone off the radar- one pm and then its nuknows
And this is the final time i put this one up before ebay, THE most beautiful black metallic paint job, 531c tubing, windowed lugs and trackends, grasstrack clearances for up to 32s....
**£210 **or near offer - dont make me put this on the bay....
**SOLD to catfood - dont drill that fork man..... :) **
The usual rules apply, no dibs, postage only if you are able to tolerate a postage schedule that could span weeks (christ knows how i made it into the good traders thread...) and pickup with cash from sw1 or sw16 means you will be eternally blessed and possibly bumped to the front of the queue.
The forum will get a percentage of all sales(and i owe vb for the last one so that percentage will be as generous as possible once rent is sorted)
ah and scottnotarchie... gets a £50 discount on all future sales for saving my back on the dynamo... massive, massive thanks.
