• I realise this is unlikely, but if anyone's got a 58-60cm track frame with a 54-55ish top tube, I'd be interested. My legs are much too long for my body...

    I should have bought one of these http://www.lfgss.com/thread53182.html, which would have been perfect and I'm still kicking myself for it.

    I'd prefer something in steel & can't really afford to spend over 200.

  • I have a 58 st, 56 tt if that's any use. pm me for details

  • just out of interest/ignorance, why not just use a long seatpost and save the weight of the extra steel in the frame??

    58cm acual top tube, but because of the slope, the effective is more like 56cm,

    I've been doing that up to now (and will probably continue to), but I tend to end up with a lot of seatpost and a really high stem and having seen those italian track frames that got listed a while ago I thought it'd be nice to have something that actually fitted properly for once.

    Sanddancer - nice, but I'm after a proper track frame - want something I can use at Herne Hill as well as for commuting (and so I can use my convert my conversion back to a road bike).

    Tenderloid - PM'd.

  • The frame I was going to buy has fallen through, so just seeing if anyone else has anything in this sort of size.

    Basically want a steel track frame, 57-60cm, but with a top tube of only 54-55ish to accommodate my disproportionately long legs and short arms.

    Bumping this one last time as what with Herne Hill restarting, I'm really keen to get hold of a frame that fits me... so again, if anyone's got a track frame they'd like to sell that's approx 58cmx54cm I'd be really interested.
