What are the dropouts on the first frame like?
-
• #3
They are track dropouts, 120mm wide, they have the usualy scratches and paint worn off as normal but no damage. That is true for the whole bike, there isn't a dent or ding on it, just superficial damage. Would look great with a decent paint job.
Here is a poor shot of the dropouts, and also a shot of the bike fully built up over the summer. apologies about the quality once again.

I'd get that red stuff on your face seen to in the second pic - looks serious.

Don't know what you are talking about, that is how I normally look...

You said the LeMond was 56cm C-T and I see the seat tube extending quite far above the toptube, how tall is it C-C and would you be able to fit some wheels on it to measure its standover height? Cheers!
-
• #9
These are both still available.
I will stick some wheels on and measure standover tonight. C-T is actually 58cm on the Lemond, sorry, c-c is about 54.5cm. It fits me perfectly at 5'10"ish.

i've got a filmore (same size from the looks of it) and actually had it painted the same/very similar colour at armourtex soon after i first got it - didn't realise there was another one like it in london! i think it's a great bike, been riding it 5+ years and it's done me really well. as far as i am concerned, 60 quid for the frame is a total bargain, so good luck with the sale!

Taba, do you have any pics of the Raleigh built up?
Would you consider sending to Australia (my 653 Race recently got nicked - hankering for another Raleigh, but not many down here)? -

I don't I'm afraid, I don't have a camera either, I would be happy to post to australia if you pay for shipping.

Really keen on lemond!

Silly deal on that Lemond...think you paint a pretty bleak picture for what is actually a pretty nice frame. I wouldnt part with mine for double that price!

Thanks Taba, but i researched the strada, and while it's a nice frame, i think i'd be a bit :sadface: trying to compare it to my old 653 race (which was also a 1989 model btw).
glws.

No worries munga, good luck finding a replacement, nothing worse than a prized bike being stolen.

I'm interested in the Strada - could you tell me whether it takes short or long reach brakes, please?
A couple of frames have to go to make room and £'s for a new project, apologies about the pics, there a few more available but they are of similar quality:
Green lemond filmore F+F 58cm seat tube c-t 56cm top tube c-c
£65 - £60+ postage SOLD
Also have a Raleigh Strada F+F, with 531 tubes. 54cm seat tube c-t 54 top tube c-c.
No name, worn but working headset included. Paint and decals are original but not in great nick, bottom brack was stuck and cost me £35 to have heated up and removed by LBS so shell is a bit blackened. Again this has rack/guard eyelets. I rode this for more that 3 years and loved it but it was always too small so eventually had to move on.
