Jos - you gotta a link to your shop please?

That's eBay anyway. Have more frames at home including new road frames going for 75 to 100 pounds.

Loads of low profile classic looking rims w/o braking surface and some other bits and bobs like Campagnolo steel headset, pedals tyres etc.

Those Campy Sherriff Star hubs look the tits - I'm watching them! ;-)
Reckon they'd be OK on some CXP 33's? Or what else would you recommend?

Apart from E-bay / gumtree, where would you recommend looking for a frame to build up my next fixed. My first one was from Brick Lane Bikes, bought a Dolan there . Now I really want an older steel frame to build up myself (With some assistance/thoughts from here!) so I get to know the bike a bit better.

Any thoughts or comments much appreciated!

There's that jumble sale in Ripley, people seeem to do well there.

Thanks. Where is Ripley???

Ripley is in Surrey. Also decent bike jumbles at Thornwood (outside of Epping).

CampyOldy has a fairly decent list of bike jumbles:

This seller has got some NOS road/MTB frames for sale pretty cheap:

^ It took a lot of willpower for me not to start bargaining with the man! But I have a frame stuck in the postal system already... Argh! If only this had been a week earlier...

Jesus. That frame is HUGE.

yeah provenrad - what are you mate - about 6'2"ish?

i am 6'2" and i just sold my 59cm steamroller frame because it was too big!

Strange thing sizing, I'm 5ft8 and I have a 55" and a 57", both spot on. Down to the stem, seatpost and headset heights/lengths for me, not into smaller frames....as you were

But he's all legs, just like me (with my 65cm Bob Jackson). The thing is that it's pretty hard for the top tube to get any longer than 60cm cos that's how the tubesets are supplied so the sizing can get funky.

You can't get much better than this Ephgrave but it'll go for good money.

BTW, I just bought a Holdsworth Championship for not a lot and will do something similar to this to it: project. Does that belong to anyone here?

Yeah - I'm almost 6'3" but inside leg is silly long - 35-36 inch! Erm... its a shame that frame is a bit £££s and scruffy otherwise looks like a great fit - short TTube etc.. I would have to faff about drilling that fork (Try finding a 1 inch fork with 35cm of steerer!) but hopefully some other fellow lanky bloke will take advantage... unless you are suggesting that I buy it?? anyone?.... hmm...?

brand new Nagasawa frame cheap!!!

Not sure if this should have gone in the Bike Porn Discussion....

i'm not a child but this bike seemed appealing for me...

i'm still looking and still a small 5'2" and it's only £150 as of now and i do have a soft spot for celeste green... but is it not worth it?
