eBay and Craigslist finds

definitely looks like a early 60's bates by the nervex lugs, if it was a pure track frame built for tubs, you will get tight clearances. shit paint letting it down and no headbadge £150-180 frame and forks

He got back to me asking for £190 plus postage. Turned him down. Shame, cos it is nice (apart from rattle can paint job).

it is a smooth ride hehe, i thought i would have a bigger issue with pedaloverlap, i wear a size 13 shoe and have large toeclips but didnot hit the wheel once :) I hope it doesnot rain tonight for the fridaynight ride so i can go for a longer ride and set the bike up the way i want, adjust the saddle height and maybe put on a different chainring. Its been sitting in my livingroom for a couple of days now so i can at least look at it all the time, i feel like a little kid who just got a new toy :)

Worst thing is he has a picture of the frame with the name right there!

Doesn't help if the deacls just aren't clear enough I guess...see one of his other items.

Euminates his chances of a decent sale.

Or just go for a lucky dip. How bad could it be for 99p?

@jammy, they are made by bubblan on here.

here's his built up

http://velospace.org/node/11572

Nice frame that murtle, does he make them cheaper, ie not out of titanium? A grand is a tad expensive :O

I haven't heard of bubblan before???

Did a memo go around? Why wasn't I informed.... hrmmph

Oh well, as long as zep enjoys it and has fun riding it then its all good. I have mixed feeling about unipacks. If someone gets one and it gets them riding bikes then it is only a good thing.

I've got one, well whats left of it. Got rid of wheels, cranks, pedals, seat & post and handlebars. Chain is doing fine so far but starting to get some funny noises from the bb. So if anyone has a bb knocking around or some advice what i need to do drop me a pm!

^Thanks - reading that has made my day!

1950's Rotrax 59cm (Resprayed with GIOS colours/Decals)

NOTE: seller says size quoted is wrong.

a quick check revealled 23 and a half inches, centre to centre. The head tube is 8 inches. My apologies, I'm considerably younger than the frame and only work in centimetres.

it must have been mentioned in a news article or radio programme, thats normally the way i have noted in the past especially when the view figures are as high as that.
