^^^Becks! What a douche!^^^
Heya all,
I'm pretty new to the forums. I'm after a frame+forks suitable for a 6' male with non-vertical dropouts. It'd have to be suitable for 700c wheels, wide enough to support a shimano nexus geared hub, and it would also be nice for it to have square taper bb attached.
Unfortunately I don't have a car, so anything local to the city centre is ideal (I live near the Surrey St bus station)
Thanks :)
I got something you maybe interested in... Its an Ali frame with aero forks, and yes it has got a BB! May use the forks for my polo machine. If you want to have a look, drop me a PM and I will git ya my number. I am only on Dereham Rd.
Did you contact me on eBay not so long ago about the BSA courier?

Yep - that was probably me :).
Just to note, I'm not looking to spend too much on the frame.

You wanna go cheap on the vital part that holds all the other bits together?

Yes. Since most of the other bike parts were relatively cheap, I'd like to stick to the theme ;p. I'd not want to spend £100+ on a frame if I can pick something decent up for £40-50.
I hope it doesn't sound as unreasonable as using a geared hub (I bought a set of mavic cxp22 wheels with a 7 speed nexus hub in the rear and a shimano dynamo hub in the front for £50... seemed like a good idea at the time!)

Well at that bargain price, it sounds like a very good idea. Would be careful of cheap used frames though. In my limited experience, they break. Badly.

That said, keep an eye out for Hilary Stone's threads in the main Classifieds forum - he has some awesome frames for good prices. Dunno where he gets them all from.

You can buy a perfectly decent frame for nowt. Just go for something that's not fashionable.
Dan's just bitter because he bought a few KG of rust covered in a thin layer of black paint that was masquerading as a Holdsworth, and it fell in half.

Which was, to be honest, pretty funny at the time.
Sorry Dan.

That's mean (he did think he had a flat tyre!)

I know, I'm sorry. I'm just jealous of his Steamroller.

• #287
Haha, not that we hardly ever see him on it!
Think Ive seen him on it 3 times. He used to be well into the scene!

Didn't you hear? Fixed jumped the shark when Mr Beckham bought one, geared is the new thing ;)
