Vitus 979 dural frameset with mudguard eyes.

seat tube : 52cm (c-top)
top tube 53cm (c-c)

Headset is shimano600, bit rough.
BB is also shimano and I nearly broke my tool trying to take it out, so it's still there - one for the mechanics.

Not bad condition, some scratches, still looks good and very light.

price : 50 pounds plus PP (23 pounds to uk for example)

It's got a seat post clamp. I thought all 979s have little grub screws.

Either way £50 is a bit of a steal for playing at Sean Kelly.

this is an earlier model - the grub screws started burrowing in the late 80s.

Good knowledge.

Mine's obviously a late one.

Lovely light things they are too and they work best for Purito sized folk who need dinky frame sizes like this one.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
