Wanted: A new road frame

Posted on
  • Hello,

    I recently bought this bike from RIH http://www.lfgss.com/thread57289.html
    I loved it very much, but sadly a few weeks ago a guy driving a car drove into me and the downtube is now bent!

    Im hoping to get the downtube replaced when i get the money from the insurance(If anyone has any recommendations for where to get it done let me know)
    In the meantime i'm looking for a replacement:
    57/58/59 c-c seatube
    56/57 c-c toptube

    preferably with braze ons for downtube shifters and brake holes that take recessed allen nut brake callipers would be good.

    Can spend around £150-£200 or maybe more if its something very nice.

    Thanks for looking.

  • almost ironic that the sticker says 'Lifetime Guarantee' within a couple of inches of a frame crippling dent. Hope you're ok and find something nice.

  • Very nice bike i must say, hope you are ok and that the bike get fixed up nicely!

  • I've got a Gitane Vitus GTI triple butted in excellent condition (1 scrape on decal on rear stay 4 small single chips). Comes with Time Carbon forks/105 headset
    Size is 57cm c-c, 58cm c-t seat tube with a 58cm top tube.
    If of interest PM with an email for photos

  • for repair and repaint etc to a very high standard my advice is to use Argos based in Bristol

  • Yeah I had a look at Argos, got a quote from Sargent and co also.
    Mr bumb- I think I found the frame you were selling on here as a full bike?
    Not really what after but thanks.

    Anyone else got anything?
