Wanted: 54cm Touring frame

Slightly long shot, but I've had success at sourcing bikes through here so thought I'd try...

I'm after 54cm-ish touring frame / bike following an ebay buy that fell through at the weekend.

I've always wanted a Roberts or a Mercian tourer and don't plan to buy more than once so I'd probably only consider these two marques. As long as it's in good structural condition, I'm happy enough to get it refinished if the price / frame is right.

Let me know if you have or know of anything.

Cheers,

Chris

Cheeky bump, following a second ebay buy that's gone awry (what is it with ebay Mercians at the minute?) I'm still looking for something...

Anyone got / know of anything?

I ve a 53cm Brtish Eagle Touristique and most of the parts

531st etc and generally viewed as the best bike they made.

I am in Walthamstow

Thanks Peter,

It's not quite what I'm after, though I imagine lovely. I'm basically being a bit of a name tart on this one unfortunately so would heavily favour a Mercian / Roberts.

You are tart ; give it a respray and who will know

Its actually a Barry Hoban

an as new Raleigh Randonneur doomed as well?

haha - it would I'm afraid. Thanks for the offer though.

I'm being a bit silly about it, but this is going to be the last addition to the stable for the forseeable future (ha!). I've always wanted one of these two so if I don't get one this time then I can guarantee that it won't be the last one...

Thanks Andy, think I've seen that one. No braze ons, and I want one with loads (or at least a rear rack and mech hanger).
