bargain!

what?! the ebay world has gone mad! where have all the bargains gone...

Ditto this.

Raleigh Team Ti in iconic team colours.

Lovely but a respray.

Price is fair.

BUt If this is a SB serial number then I think the price is good. The drilling on the dropouts and the BB make me think its a genuine SB build.

"...I don't know how to size this frame so I have hung a tape measure for you to make your own mind up as to wether it is what you require.."

clear as mud, though this seems to suggest its a 56. Wasn't someone here interested in one?

How about this for a conversion potential - lug-less frame could be nice?

I don't think so. I assume hi-ten is high tensile steel, which is the lowest of the low frame wise. Look at the weight. I have a six storey office building stuffed under my saddle* and my bike still weighs less than that**

  ** True.
  

A collection of the best 531 frames I can find on fleabay -

Pug 531 Pro looks nice. Also mystery white number at the end looks of good quality.

Might be worth asking about the components on this too...forks look high end.

Nothing yet....

Anything?

Yeah, he got back, the frame is mine once I pay and he packages and sends it. Looking forward to getting this... am going to put up some pictures on here and ask questions and that sort of thing - just a beater, but a 531 beater.

@Tel, what's the protocol, beyond "thanks for the spot"?

Standard reach-around and a pint.

reppage

^ Of course, silly me. Repped, and thanks again.

^^ I am always happy to buy pints, should I meet people in real life, used to drink in the Jolly Butcher's, could probably make it again one day. Not sure what a reach-around is though...
