• SOLD SOLD SOLD.......sad to see it go, but glad its going to a good home and not being painted!

    Here I have a frame I have lusted after for a while, saw the bike on Ebay a while back.....I missed out and it turned up back here, without parts, just a naked frame. I think V-L(?) had purchased it, then CBW had it and I pestered him until he sold (or swapped for some parts from memory) it to me.....

    Anyway, reason I fell for it is because it is

    Its made from 653 steel, its made from a little known English framebuilder (Cookie Cycles) which I cant seem to find anything about. It has tight! geometry, in fact its tighter than most track frames I have ridden. It has Cinelli cast BB shell AND Cinelli lugs (see photos).

    It measures 55cm c-c square and has 126mm rear dropout (which I ran a 120mm track wheel no problem), Columbus dropouts, English BB threading, comes with Gipiemme seatpost and Campagnolo (Chorus?) headset which runs fine, seatpost not stuck.

    How does it ride you ask? Incredible. As good as my Roberts (Columbus SL) and Woodrup (Reynolds 531 SL) track frames.

    There are no dings or dents, but plenty of marks and scuffs, a few chips, and paint has hairline cracks in some parts. But this just makes it all the better in my mind. I couldnt bring myself to paint it and it has real character. Although it would look amazing if it was painted / reconditioned.

    Anyway, I present you the Cookie:

    P.S. apologies for the filtered photos, it was needed to capture the true colours....

    If I had the space I would most definately keep it, but alas it looks like the lady friend is moving in, and I might be leaving the country at the end of the year......plus I need some funds for my road build

    SOLD

  • Damn, such a nice frame. The perfect size for me aswell. Shame I just finished my first project; have a bump nonetheless. GLWS.

    Oh and P.S. Whoever buys this lovely frame; please don't repaint it. The ratty paint adds a lot of character in my opinion. #JustMy2Pence
