For Sale: Lightweight Vitus aluminium roadframe 57cm

Lightweight aluminium VITUS FRAME+ FORK including Stronglight headset. Frame with the famous alu lugs and white alu tubing. SOLD

Frame is named as "Normandy" but the decalls are simply to remove if you like. Vitus made frames for a small number of brands. This one has a Jan Janssen headbadge. It's overal in a very good condition. Some marks of use but no dents, scratches and rust ofcourse because it's alu. The decalls are not the best at some points (see pictures). Frame has all the nice marks of a Vitus like the small rearfork, seatstay bolt at the back of the seat tube and vertical drop outs.

ST c-t 57cm
TT c-c 56cm
Rear dropout width 126 mm

Glued lugs and tubing.

Comes with the Stronglight headset

Imagine the frame without the transfers. Complete white with polished aluminium........ But with transfers it's a rare frame also in my opinion.

I'm only selling the frame. The wheels on the pictures are not for sale!

Please give me dibs and pm also for more information or pictures.

SOLD SOLD SOLD

my imagination leads me more to think of the word "Zimmer" for the decals on the frame......

Perhaps its just an age thing

I would have taken it if there were Normandy decals on it.
Romany is the private label of bike shop Ad van Overveld in Zegge (close to Putte were Jan Janssen is based).

Right, Romany is a private label of that bikeshop indeed. As i told before feel free to wipe off the decalls wich is an easy job i find out. Complete frame with fork and headset is below 2kg!

Pricedrop 150,-

No one for this lightweight? I know it has vertical drop outs but still a great and very light frame to rebuild a classic racer or city bike.

drop to 145,- and I'm open for offers!

Last pricedrop to 140,-

Otherwise i will prepare a lightweight bike of it. Feel free to ask for options.

For sale till Saturday.

Price 135,- GBP incl postage.

This for 130,- postage including?

What's the BB thread? French?

Dibs if at £130? Lovely frame, any chance of making a deal with the wheelset? Cheers

Peter, will you please contact me? Send you 2 times pm

I am new to this forum and only joined because I have been searching for a decent Vitus duralinox or Alan frame for some time without success. This one seems to be at a very good price but sadly, it is too small - a 60cm or 62cm would do nicely . . .

GJO: Big frames like Alan/Vitus (alu with glued lugs) are not seen often in that sizes. Also a bit risky about that sizes with the lugs torsion.

Agreed - a 59cm Vitus frame would probably suffice - a 1980s Peugeot PY10FC would be nice . . .

Hi GJO,

I have a nice 60cm (I think) Vitus. Will send you a pic tomorrow.

Thank you . . .

PeterMaxwell, please contact me again!

GJO: good deal finding a frame in that size. Thanks to the forum (and Erik)
