I have a charge plug freestyler for sale, size small.
-
• #179
I don't know if a small would fit being 5'9 i'm right on the limit, what kind of fit is it on you ? cheers.

I'm 5'6 and a bit and the stand over was maybe a little much (but fine), but the TT was perfect. I have a 29" inside leg and a bit of a short upper body/arms when it comes to reach though.
Might not be suitable :/ If you were interested I could probably build it up to at least sit on/try size out using parts of another bike.

I am 5'9" (I think) and I rode Steve's charge and didn't find it too small at all. I ride a 54ish top tube. The seat tube matters less.

I think i'd better let this one go, i should stick out for something in a medium... I've been hearing a lot about cov peace house possibly having something in for a conversion perhaps ?

Worth a look :) Also, Action 21 in Leamington might be worth a try. I think there's someone on here who's volunteered for them... Nowherefast I think.

Thinking of selling my current fixed ride (excluding forks)... may be better to split.... now only frame available...
Would be an excellent resto project if you wanted to paint... the frame has its original paint, with a nice patina... frame has campag dropouts. Anyone interested?

How much?

I love those cranks. Too big for me but whoever buys it shouldn't repaint. It has character.

Saving up for a new camera, so selling a few things. For starters, got a Bontrager SSR wheelset taken off my 2007 Trek 7.5 FX. The front is in reasonable condition, the rear needs a new spoke and truing up (plain gauge spokes, nothing fancy). The rear was replaced under warranty in 2009 so has done less miles than the front.
I think they're about 30mm deep, and 24/20 spoke if I remember correctly. Need a clean, no cassette - £40?
Same as these: http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/2007/archive/75fx

I agree, shouldn't get any new paint...

Hi people,
I've decided it's time to let my beautiful ALAN frame go. I've owned this frame for 2 years now but it has actually been wrapped and stored for the last 18 months, after being built and ridden just a couple of times.
I had this particular frameset built as a geared road bike before I stripped it down (see first pic), but I have owned numerous ALAN frames in the past so have included a couple of pics of my own personal bike to show how they look when converted to fixed/ss.
So, included in the sale is the following:
- Frame (ALAN Aluminium)
- Forks (ALAN Aluminium)
- Headset (Shimano 105) not pictured
- Stem (anodized black)
- Bars (brushed silver) not pictured
- Seatpost (anodized black) not pictured
- BB (Shimano Dura-ace 7900)
The stem and seatpost are both basically brand new and were ridden just a couple of times before the bike was stripped. The bb is eng/eng eccentric thread, basically english.
Size wise, I'm 5 foot 8 and the fit was perfect.
The price is £250 and I'm based in the centre of town.
PM me if you're interested and we'll sort out a viewing.
(Im looking to purchase a MTB by the way, so let me know if you have anything to trade..)
This is the frameset for sale:
Previous build:

can include forks but the steerer is damaged...never had a frontal impact (in the time i've had it), threads on the steerer are damaged, so new steerer needed.
il check the details of the frame tomorrow when i pick it up from work and report back...

- Sun Wasp F+F. Ratty paint, chromed forks, has potential. Bought to build up as a summer cruiser but haven't got time. Dates from the 60's with beautiful lugs, small ding on seat stay. 27.0 seatpost I think, pretty sure it's 531, possibly 21" or maybe a touch smaller - £45

Steve, frame measurements are as follows, seat tube, C-to-T is 55cm, TT is 55 C-to-C, rear spacing is 120mm, not sure what the headset is, and seatpost is a 'push' 27.2, bb- un54, any more questions just ask!
