For Sale: Unknown Beater Frame 58cm. Track drop outs. Leeds.

Unknown Frame 58cm. Track drop outs. Leeds. SOLD

SOLD TO POODLE FOR 20 rips plus postage. Thanks

This powder coated frame came into my possession via a commuter tank I had build by Bikology in Leeds about three years ago. I was running it with a Sturmey archer RFX-8 hub, then ran it fixed, then replaced the frame altogether. I spoke to Adam from the shop and he said “erm…..its probably a Raleigh, I can’t remember, but it ain’t Reynolds or anything, pretty sure”.

What it does have going for it is that it powder coated a nice matt black and would probably be a good starting point for a super cheap beater.

Its 58cm square and has track drop outs.
Rear spacing is 130mm

Frame number appears to be WB2002921 which makes me think it is a Raleigh, but I’m sure its not, repeat, not Reynolds steel.

Seatpost diameter is a bit of a mystery. Seems to be about 26mm as I’ve just failed to stick in a post that I know to be 27.2mm. Can throw in the zoom seat post pictured (clamp will need fixing with Loctite or something as the seat gradually slides back). Can throw in an old BB (note the rusting in the frame here).

Cough….um…..£30 collected from either Leeds or Bradford? Could post but not worth the expense I guess?

I'm near Bradford at the weekend. Any chance of popping by for a look?

PM on the way.

Apparently I can't send a PM yet, but am still interested in getting hold of a beater.

Hi El Sabor,

I work in Bradford during the week but won't be there on a weekend. I will, however be home in Leeds that day. Let me know if we can work something out

Price drop £25

any interest in shipping?

Shipping at buyer's expense is fine if needed. Happy to sort that.

Can you get an idea of cost to ship to Austria? If its cheap enough ill take it as a winter beater

Young gun,

I'm struggling to find shipping under £50. Unless I'm looking in the wrong place - tried UPS, Parcel force etc. You'd be better putting the money towards a locally sourced beater. Cheers

This has now sold. Thanks everyone. Forum donation on the way
