For Sale: BSA frame 52cm

BSA (Birmingham Small Arms) 'Sport' road frame from the mid-eighties. They used to have quite a reputation and this was made when the company was owned by Raleigh.

seat tube 52cm ctc
top tube 54cm
spacing 100mm front, 120mm rear (horizontal road dropouts).

£100 frame and fork only, but could be sold with or without the headset (1" shimano 105, +£20) and bottom bracket (shimano UN53, +£15), both of which are brand new.

it'll also come with the long reach front brake caliper.

the paint (which is all black except for my own decals) is almost immaculate and i'm only selling it because it's just too small for me.

apologies for the Little-House-on-the-Prairie-esque photo.

okay, i am gonna ignore the Birmingham **Small Arms ** coincidence on the day of the Beadles About obit and ask you how much you want for it?

i was expecting a young girl in a bonnet holding up your bike, and im very disappointed

i always hated the girl in the programme.

shit, i have got the theme tune in my head now. i bet it will stay with me for then next hour and a quarter of riding. thanks a bunch

there was a programme? we had to read all the books in school.... and then take feild trips to the parrie.... do you have any idea how boreing a feild trip to the parrie is? nothing in any direction, and you still have to stay on the path.

jonny shit, i have got the theme tune in my head now. i bet it will stay with me for then next hour and a quarter of riding. thanks a bunch

Oh Jesus, same here...

Hey,

Is this still for sale?

Think my last bike was a 54 but from the pic it looks about the same. How tall are you for it to come up too small? To buy i'd need it to be posted (im away at uni). If thats cool, drop me an email (in profile)

Cheers,
James.

i'm six foot and half an inch. Don't get me wrong, it's not uncomfortable to ride, just not ideal. where abouts are you?

Very pretty frame.. May come have a look at it when I come over this weekend. ^^

@ Delphina,

by all means.

im 5 10 so should be alright there. Currently in Cardiff.

@ bcjames,

yeah sounds good.

tidy. ill leave it to you then to decide if you are happy to post or not (or infact, where are you? I keep assuming London). Of course if Delphinas offer to view there is preferred, then thats understood!

my last bike was stolen so am a bit rushed, less fussy in getting a new one together. That postage cost sounds good to me, of course im happy to pay any postage cost so like as remains economic. yep can do paypal.
