  • **SOLD**
    Really nice track frame from the respected Yorkshire frame builder Chris Marshall. Frame is 531, presume DB as it is very light and has a lovely ring to it. Fork is a round-leg Zeus track fork with nice crown. Has been drilled for front brake as you can see, very tight to get a none-nutted (modern) brake on but I have made an internal adaptation to make this work (safely). Clearances tight without being silly, negligible toe overlap (depending on your plates), and a really nice ride quality.
    Size: 54.5cm seat tube, 56cm top tube, centre to centre.
    1" threaded fork, 27.2mm seat post, English BB, standard 100/120 spacing.
    Available as F&F with headset only or complete bike as shown. -*** bike now split***
    Headset: Shimano Dura Ace cups, 105 top nut (and has one new Ultegra race inside!)
    and/or:
    Wheels: Rigida Chrina rims on Quando sealed-bearing hubs (spokes NOT ss tho') £60
    Tyres: Maxxis Detonators +£15 if bought with wheels (tubes included)

    **F&F + headset only £230 NOW £225
    **Collection/viewing SE1/Waterloo.

  • Hutch.....very nice indeed....good colour....too long TT for me.....but nice none the less.

  • Thanks Leon - thought it might catch your eye ;-) For what it's worth, I've not noticed your dreaded 'jelly track fork' under braking!

  • I had a Woodrup track frame and had beautiful round forks....and i was coming down a very steep hill near me...called Barrington Hill.....well believe me, i experienced it that day and scared the pants off me.....so i trust road forks......plus i am a tad chunkier than you anyway!.....your frame is a good price.

  • split?

  • @messyrage - what are you after specifically? I've already given a price for F&F, but I'm not really interested in parting out the rest. Might sell the wheels but only if someone buys F&F

  • Perhaps he wants you to separate the frame and forks?

  • yh wheels

  • I'm interested, but I can't PM you just yet, as I just joined the forum. Dibs on complete for now, pending further information?

  • you can email me direct: rouleur at retrodicorsa dot cc

  • 2 days in yellow for Froome, 2 x £10 off the price = £450 to clear.

  • Hmmmm wait another 14 days......further £140?.....perhaps not!

  • Nah, this is a one off, but I feel he earned the discount bump in spades these last two days... even if he won't benefit from it!

  • Point taken......Froome is the best British road cyclist......don't think wiggo would coped without team support.

  • bargain

  • That saddle is gorgeous. Dibs if you selling that on its own.

  • Bike split now, some bits I have used on another build, but available are:
    F&F + headset £230
    Wheels £60 with choice of sprocket and a lockring
    Wheels as above but with tyres and tubes £75

  • wheelset please

  • PM'd

  • Dibs on frame if not taken but can't pm yet... Newb..

  • you can email me direct: rouleur at retrodicorsa dot cc

  • If only the tt was 54. Need to start hanging from door frames....

  • Just for the avoidance of doubt I don't do 'dibs' and usually make this clear in the OP but forgot here. Items remain available until I say otherwise. If you want to purchase something, contact me via PM or email, arrange to pay and collect (or have it posted), when I have your money and you have the item it is officially sold. Simple as.

  • p.s. I'm happy to leave the front brake on (new System EX dual pivot) for an extra tenner. If you don't buy the brake you still get the special brake nut if you want it.

  • Huge apologies but have just spotted this only has front brake - need both.
