For Sale: Cougar SLX road bike/touring frame 52cm

It's 52cm seat/53cm top tube. You can see in the project thread the original condition - http://www.lfgss.com/thread96740.html. Pretty good really save a bit of rust on the BB. Got it dipped and coated at a local company who did a pretty good job. I've managed a small scratch the top tube somehow, and one other small nick but the paint looks really good.

Prior to getting it painted the young LBS apprentice managed to ding the down tube right next to the BB. A bit annoying but nothing major as it's mostly covered up by the cranks when assembled.

Bottom bracket threads were a bit rusty so I cleaned it and pushed out the muck with another BB. threads are fine just not perfect but I got the BB in fine.

Positive points - well it's Columbus SLX, braze on for racks or mudgaurds, decent clearances for tyres. Reckon it would make a nice light tourer for somebody.

Comes with Stronglight headset.

I paid £120 for the frame, then dinged, coated and decaled.

Would quite like to get £100 for it, plus postage. So say £115.

Where are your based, meds ?

Up north around Lancaster area.

This frame is still for sale.

Has bumblebee potential...I even have a black turbomatic titanium saddle which I could throw into the deal for a bit extra. Would look sweet together..

Had quite a bit of interest in the frame but nothing leading to a deal.

I have some provisional interest in the frame but have actually almost completed a the build.

If you're interested in the whole bike let me know, just needs a couple of bits to be complete. Details:

• Campag Mirage 9spd groupset (Veloce shifters not pictured)
  
• Campag Chorus wheels
  
• Ritchey cockpit (Evo curve bars)
  
• Turbomatic Ti saddle/Easton post

I'd like £385 posted for it. Needs pedals, headset adaptor and chain to be ready. It's colour coordinated from the frame/post/saddle/wheels/bars etc.

Any chance I could scavenge that saddle? Tidy bike though GLWS

Nah it matches in with the bike too well, unless you're willing to pay top dollar!

I would be interested in the wheels if you do split?
