Because its a collectable PX10 and certain people get rather excited by them and fully restore them etc etc etc.

how 'collectable' ? I'd happily restore it (as a GEARED) but I think there's a certain degree of talking it up.

PX10s are collectables!? That's good to know. I feel bad for using mine as a winter frame now. Admitedly mine is missing its head badge and has plane 531 forks not chrome ones.
The Pearl white paint on px10s has such a nice finish.

eye of the beholder and all that. No want, no buy. Simples. No-one wants, no-one buys, price reduction. Simples.
This is the way of things and its all above board and street legal-he's not the Red Cross for skint cyclists and I'm pretty sure he knows what he's selling.

The price does still seem fairly steep though.

We (Americans) do like PX10's, but nobody at home would pay that price for that frame.

CLAUD BUTLER? TRACK FRAME
Seat Tube (ctc): 20.5in (51cm)
Top Tube (ctc): 21.5in (55cm)
Rear dropout width: 120mm
Frame tubing: probably Reynolds 531 plain gauge
Seatpost size: 26.8mm
Wheel size: 700C (brake drop 55mm)
This track frame was sold to me as a Claud Butler - though I cannot find a frame number - whatever it’s a very neat small track frame. The paint is not especially good - its an ideal candidate for a powder-coat. £145
SHEFFIELD-LANGSETT TRACK FRAME 1940s
Seat Tube (ctt): 55cm (21.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 56cm (22in)
Rear dropout width: 110mm
Wheel size: 700C/sprints with brake drop of 50mm
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
Sheffield-Langsett as the name implies came from Sheffield - this very beautiful track frame dates I think from the late 30s or 40s. It has been beautifully rechromed and comes complete with an excellent Chater-Lea headclip. It just needs painting now - a chance to paint in the colour of your choice. I think I know where to obtain some repro decals. The lugs are really very splendid in the early English fancy lug style... This will make a superb period track bike... £195
UNKNOWN TRACK FRAME 1970s Really cool lugs and details
Seat Tube (ctt): 62cm (24.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 57.5cm (22.75in)
Rear dropout width: 120mm
Wheelsize: Sprints/700C
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 double butted
This is an extremely nice large track frame from the 1970s - the lugs are beautifilluy detailed with two drilled holes as is the fork crown. The bottom bracket shell has two long additional stiffeners - on the underside of the down tube and one on the back of the seat tube both of which have drilled holes. Clearances are nice and tight with steep angles - it will ride really nicely. It has been painted with Hammerite paint which is quite ghastly but I have removed some of this ion an attempt to se if there were decals iunderneath – unfortunately not but it did reveal that the tubing looked to be in excellent condition. Repainted it will look truly stunning. Large track frames such as this are really uncommon... £175
CLAUD BUTLER COUREUR ROAD FRAME c1980
Seat Tube (ctt): 57cm (22.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 57cm (22.5in)
Rear dropout width: 126mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C (brake drop 55mm)
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 fork blades
Seatpost size: 26.4mm
This is a very nice Claud Butler road frame from the late 70s/early 80s with paint in generally sound condition. It will make a very straightforward fixed or singlespeed conversion. £79
ANDRE BERTIN ROAD FRAME 1970s
Seat Tube (ctc): 53cm (21in)
Top Tube (ctc): 54cm (21.25in)
Rear dropout width: 120mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C (brake drop 52mm)
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 double butted
Seatpost size: 26.6mm
This is a really rather lovely Bertin road frame from the 1970s; it has I think been repainted fairly recently in one of their Team colour schemes. The paint is generally excellent with just a few small marks. It comes complete with an excellent Stronglight roller bearing headset. £185
BRIAN ROURKE ROAD FRAME c1996
Seat Tube (ctt): 20.5in (52cm)
Top Tube (ctc): 20.75in (52.5cm)
Rear dropout width: 130mm
Wheel size: 700C
Brake drop with 700C/Sprint wheel: 42mm
Frame Tubing: Reynolds 531C
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
Brian Rourke framesets were and some I believe are still produced in their own workshop by Paul Washington - this frame features his very distinctive and special wrap over seat stays. And has hardly been used - the kit that was taken off looked as if it had not done 100 miles... The paint is truly excellent with just a couple of small chips. This frame I think dates from the middle/late 1990s. I was very impressed by Paul Washington’s workshop when I visited about 12 years ago and his frames are really rather special. £175
OLMO GIRO ROAD FRAME early 1990s
Seat Tube (ctc): 23in (58cm)
Top Tube (ctc): 23in (58cm)
Rear dropout width: 126mm
Wheel size: 700C with brake drop of 50mm
Seatpost size: 26.8mm
Frame tubing: Columbus Aelle
This Olmo Giro road frame us in very good/excellent condition with just a small number of marks to its original paint. It will make an excellent singlespeed or fixed conversion £95
KOGA MIYATA PROFESSIONAL ROAD FRAME 1976 ** NEW AND UNUSED**
Seat Tube (ctc): 57cm (22.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 56cm (22in)
Rear dropout width: 122mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C
Frame tubing: Chrome moly 4140 tubing
This is a very early Koga Miyata Professional road frame which can be dated by its frame number to 1976. It was originally built up with Shimano Dura-Ace groupset but has never been used. It has a number of small shopwear marks none of which are particularly obvious. I have an almost complete Shimano Dura-Ace groupset of the correct period with some NOS components which could be used to build this frame up. It is not suitable for fixed or singlespeed conversion unless a magic gear is found. reduced to £185
PEUGEOT PX10 ROAD FRAME c1982/3
Seat Tube (ctc): 58cm (23in)
Top Tube (ctc): 57.5cm (22.75in)
Rear dropout width: 126mm
Wheel size: sprint/700C with 50mm brake drop
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 double butted
Seatpost size: 26.6mm
This is one of the last classic PX10 road frames to be come from the Peugeot factory - its built from Reynolds 531 double butted tubing in metric dimensions. I will include the Stronglight bottom bracket in with the frame - and the buyer has the option to purchase the front and rear gears and stem for an extra £20. Its in excellent condition with near perfect chrome and pearl white paint with only a few marks. It would be an excellent basis for a very cool fixed or singlespeed conversion. £165
ORBIT GOLD MEDAL TOURING FRAME 1985
Seat Tube (ctc): 57cm (22.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 56cm (22in)
Rear dropout width: 125mm

Rear dropout width: 125mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C (brake drop 45mm)
Seatpost size: 27.0mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 501
Raleigh 501 road frames are really rather nicely built and this is a rather cool frame ideal for fixed or singlespeed conversion. It is brand new and never been used though there are one or two small shopwear marks, none of which are obtrusive. £95
