nice BJ

Thanks, sad to see it go but it doesn't get ridden enough.

lovin' the BJ too! is the seat tube measurement c-t-c or c-t-t?

You can't beat a good BJ...

That is a gorgeous BJ, bargainous...

were the original forks on the bill nickson 700s? or do you think maybe 650?

love to see some shots with wheels on, really interested... provisional dibs pending answers

Hot dang that Bill Nickson is delish!

provisional dibs on the BJ pending answer about top tube measurement being c-t-c or c-t-t ^^^

Very nice frames; very nice prices.
Do you have a picture of the lo-pro built up?

2nd dibs on lo pro pending pic with wheels on

BJ is measured c-t-t as per the website and my tape measure, equal to 22" in old money

Wanna swap the BJ for a neat iPhone 3gs 16GB?

Dibs on BJ. Pm sent...

Photo with wheels in added above.

I agree it would better suit a 650c front fork but I sold the original alloy (!) one fork a while back. Still easy to come across a replacement mind, and the chromed 700c Mosers are mint.

It was made for 650c forks - the geometry is all wrong right now. Have you been riding like this without a problem?

To tell the truth it didn't feel that much different when I swapped it to 700c - the angles are pretty slack regardless, although it did have bullhorns on it originally.

Not had any problems so far...

Anyway, not wanting to get into an argument about the merits/inherent dangers of 650c/700c lo-pro geometry, the forks are included for convenience and could be swapped if necessary. I still think it is a good price for the frame alone, which is in A1 condition.

If the BJ doesnt sell, PM me

2nd dibs!

undibs brought a different frame

is the lopro for 24 front wheel?
