It looks like a fifties salon hairdryer melted over the front wheel.

old advertising is so sweet

well captured is the unhappy cyclist in the background who doesnt own a cymota.

Joker.

^ trolled:

how much of the £3,500 upper estimate do you attribute to the craftsmanship over the componentry? If it's a fair whack (and it would appear on face value to be that) I'd like to know a lot more about who crafted the frame, when and how.

Thanks

I'll go get a life now.

Dodgy flying gate copy

This sold on Sunday. Look at the seat cluster. If you rode this and then hit a bump I think you'd end up with some seatstays int' bum.

Old-style Pompino frame and forks currently working out at £105 delivered from Planet X with the code UK25BITS. I'm tempted just to have a hack bike frame lying around if I ever need it.

do it

Some cheap larger frames for someone on the look - including a Raleigh Banana. Three for a buy-it-now 45 quid...

All have horizontal dropouts, so will fixie

^needs to be on a T-shirt.

Good spot!

Yep, bidding finger hovered for a minute there, but...

...how many frames can one man ride?

"Raleigh 25 Inch Carbonite 18-23 Frame"

ah yes carbonite, it was good enough quality for han solo to be frozen in i suppose...

...how many frames can one man ride?

4.

...how many frames can one man ride?

Or, as many as you like until you are storing more than two in your lounge... that, it seems, is when the complaining starts.

lol

The frame speaks for it's self; a 1980 Reynolds 531 carbon steel frame, the history of modern day cycling has been built from this classic design & engineering. This bike is the only one in the world & is totally unique. My bike has created so much interest and has inspired many people to build their own machines, thats why I did it. The price for any item is worth whatever a person is prepared to pay for it. If you are trying to equate money to an object dont ever buy modern art or abstract sculptures, or anything handbuilt. Will someone pay £3500.00 for this? of course not however, compared,£750.00 sounds like a bargain. If you know how much each component costs then you can quickly go past the asking price, then you have to add on my build hours & design.
NO bids yet i realise but I might be lucky.............who knows?!
