  • hi, i have an argos lo pro frame, it is actually an argos not rebadged.

    reynolds 653 fram and fork,
    700c front and rear
    designed for gears, but only rear ones, no routing for a front mech.
    shimano dropouts
    BSA thread BB
    supplie with shimano 105 headset

    internal cable routing goes from downtube through BB and out drive side chainstay, something i havent seen on a bike of this era ever, there is routing in the BB too so it shouldnt be too dificult to set up.

    rear brake cable is also for internal routing, but goes through the seat post see pictures

    sizing is

    55cm TT C2C
    seat tube is a funny one to measure, 65cm T2C of BB 62 to centre of down tube

    probably for someone with long legs maybe about 6" really not too sure with lo pros.

    the frame does have some cosmetic damage, but for a pearl of this nature it is worth a nice respray or maybe just some touch up paint, the forks have the paint numbers written on the steerer so maybe could get a pot from argos or an art shop.

    looking for £180 please.

    happy to post, but will charge for postage on top




    cheers

    this is the worst of the paint damage, the bloke before by the looks of it removed the non drive side cranks with an angle girnder! the BB i took out was missing half the spindle!

    if anyone would like more pictures please let me know.

  • That bottom bracket cluster is the sex

  • before this frame id only seen 1 frame with the BB support bars and 1 with the ST meeting the DT above the BB. will check the wheelbase tomorrow but very short i imagine

  • I've said it before, but you Mr Crane have the best bikes. Nice price too.

  • ...damn, that's got the be the shortest wheelbase I've seen on a crank driven bicycle. Intruiging.

    *awaits build thread eagerly

  • build thread? What the fuck is happening to this forum?

    Nutty bike btw Fred. Love it.

  • Sully, current projects forum means we each can now start our own threads about bikes.

    Awesome frame btw.

  • Yeah, great addition to the forum imo.

  • I think it's fucking dull.

  • Unlike this argos.

  • So tempted...

  • that wheelbase is so short!..looks great tho..

  • This would make such an awesome pub bike.

  • do it sanddancer

  • Want. But there can be no justification.

  • this is really bonkers, not interested in buying it myself, but curious to know how it rides? do you need a post graduate degree in riding bikes to not fall off?

  • Does it barspin?

    Toe overlap would be horrendous ;)

  • .

  • This is so awesome, I was keeping my eyes on this, it looks so fun..

    Sadly it's either new wheelset for me or this frame, which I don't need.

    Bump, hope someone has great fun with this
