I have for sale a Gazzelle road frame, 53cm TT/51cm ST.
Its a really nice well made frame, with pretty pointed lugs and fancy cable routing. But the person I got it off did some "bad things" to it. Like using a too-small seat post and forcing seat clamp overtight. Meaning there is some crimping in the clamping area. This shouldnt be too much of a problem hopefully. (The person I got it from never told me about it!).
They have also repainted the original flashy flouro paintjob over really badly with patchy white primer.
I was thinking building it up with all my spare parts as a run-around, but I realised I have too many bikes and really this deserves better. To be stripped down, and repainted. Ideally built up with a rear brake, to make use of the cable routing.
I think the frame is Reynolds 753 (what I was told) it seems to add up. The forks are not original, can sell with or without. They are very nice and I think Ill have no trouble selling them separately.
These are unflattering pictures taken in poor light. Would look a million times better when stripped down/rebuilt nicely.
