Seat Tube (ctt): 58cm
Top Tube (ctc): 56.5cm
Rear dropout width: 120mm
Brake drop with 700C wheels: 57mm
Seatpost size: 26.8mm
This frame is ideal for a budget conversion - it is in a very sound condition though the paint leaves quite a bit to be desired - its an ideal candidate for powder coating. £35 SOLD

HEWITT COUGAR? RANDONNEUR
Seat Tube (ctt): 53cm
Top Tube (ctc): 53cm
Rear dropout width: 130mm
Brake drop with 700C wheels: 49mm
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
This is a very beautiful frame that is decaled as a Hewitt - however the fork crown and rear brake bridge have Cougar engravings - Hewitt have never built their own frames and its quite posible Cougar built it for Hewitt. It has horizontal dropouts with mudguard eyes - the clearances are such that it can be used with 23mm tyres, mudguards and Campy dual-pivot brakes. This is a very beautiful and light frame - its certainly not standard Reynolds 531. £135

MONZA Reynolds 501
Seat Tube (ctt): 58cm
Top Tube (ctc): 56cm
Rear dropout width: 128mm
Brake drop with 700C wheels: 62mm
Seatpost size: 27.0mm
This frame looks as if it has hardly been used. For a budget frame its light - its main tubes are Reynolds 501 double-butted. Its pretty much ideal for a budget conversion. The naff decals I think can be peeled off... £22 **SOLD **

RALEIGH RANDONNEUR TOURING FRAME 1988
Seat Tube (ctt): 56cm
Top Tube (ctc): 56cm
Rear dropout width: 130mm
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 double-butted
This frame has braze-ons for a rear rack and for cantilever or V-brakes. This frame is in excellent condition except that its had the slightest of bumps - the down tube has a very small bump behind the lug which is extremely difficult to see but which can be felt. This won’t affect the strength or handling of the frame to any noticeable extent but hence it is only £28 SOLD

Top Tube (ctc): 57cm
Rear dropout width: 110mm

Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 double-butted
Jack Sibbit was a very successful track racer in the 1920s and 1930s winning many National championships and representing Britain in the Olympic Games. His bike shop was in Manchester and he seems to be of the very few framebuilders who specialized in building track bikes - most Sibbit frames I have seen have been track ones. This frame is in very sound condition with the original decals and comes complete with its original bottom bracket and headset. The lugs are extremely nice with beautiful clean shaping and brazing. £195

Top Tube (ctc): 57cm
Rear dropout width: 120mm
Brake drop with 700C wheels: 68mm
This frame is ideal for a budget conversion - it is in a very sound condition though the paint leaves quite a bit to be desired - its an ideal candidate for powder coating. It comes complete with a Stronglight 99 chainset and pedals with toeclips. £25 SOLD

ARCHIE WILKINSON SPEEDWAY
Seat Tube (ctt): 55cm
Top Tube (ctc): 55cm

Brake drop with 700C wheels: 39mm
This frame is was designed for Cycle Speedway with rearward facing track ends and straight forks which can even with 700C wheels be rotated through 360 degrees. Cycle Speedway riders use 26in wheels - however there is just enough clearance for 700C wheels with a 23mm tyre. £59 SOLD

TOURING FRAME POSSIBLY RALEIGH
Seat Tube (ctt): 56cm
Top Tube (ctc): 55cm
Rear dropout width: 130mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 double butted
This is a nicely made touring frame which is complete with braze-ons for both front and rear racks and cantilever or V-brakes. It was sold to me as a Raleigh but I would not be certain the frame number is very indistinct. It needs painting hence only £45 SOLD subject to payment

TRACK FRAME 1940s
Seat Tube (ctt): 58cm
Top Tube (ctc): 57cm
Rear dropout width: 110mm
Brake drop with 700C wheels: 49mm
This track frame dates from the 1940s/early 1950s is in need of renovating - the paintwork is poor and there are are several dents, the largest of which is on the top of the top tube behind the head lug. It won’t affect the strength of the frame but it is quite obvious... hence £85. SOLD

the archie would be perfect for a polo bike

Yep, I want it. Shame I have already spent way too much on bike stuff today and need to spend a load more on tools before I go back to uni.

the archie would be perfect for a polo bike

JB has a similar frame for polo.

Also tempted by the archie speedway polo idea. Hmmm winter polo.... Shall I...?

You can get a brand new f&f for £99 or a complete bike for £199 (new bars, pedals and a brake set up and you've got a perfect polo steed) direct from archie wilkinson.

Yup, just seen this. I'm out so over to you Pelt...

Sorry Hilary - will pm.

Could I get someone's opinion on last frame there, are the dents not quite severe, would it be ok to ride?

Nice selection, even though I know pretty little about bikes. Do you reckon I could do a really basic build for about £100? I've got about that to spend at the moment, although I know nothing of building either...so I'm probably screwed...

that will pay for wheels

Damn.

hilary~

£30 for rear wheel
£5 front wheel
free chain
£2 stem
£5 bars
£shitty headset £5 - £10
bb £10
seatrpost £5
saddle £5
you could try, those are rock bottom prices, your going to have to grovel

Sweet, and then have to grovel some more for help on building the shitty thing. But It's worth it, I want a ss bad. So just watch these pages for cheap stuff?

I got my polo bike on the road for £65 but that was with some serious freebies/mates rates/grovelling.

Tempted by either of the Raleigh's, but like antar I'm screwed for funds atm :D

Plus you guys seem like a nice bunch, I'm sure I could scrounge some advice somewhere here, I'm doing it. Watch this ...building a banged up, shitty ss for £100. So if any of you guys spot stupid cheap shitty stuff, I would be very grateful if you let me know! Thanks.
