I'm starting to get a bit bored of riding around town on my Raleigh conversion. It looks nice, but it's a bit heavy, a little too small, and now that I've had to take the rack off, it doesn't even serve any great purpose as a town bike any more.
I was hoping I'd find some kind of bargain East German Diamant frame over here, but the only one going for a reasonable price got snapped up just before I got there. On Ebay, they go for stupid prices considering they're mainly gaspipe jobs.
I'd like some decent steel, with a top tube at least 58cm long. Preferably with a drilled front fork.
Rather something old and classy but tired than something OTP. And I'd like to pay as little as possible. And no road frames or trick frames.
What have you got for me?
Thanks
