Wanted: Size 60-63 road/touring complete bike or frameset

Hi,

I'm looking for a complete bike or frameset suitable for long, fast rides. Seat tube c-t between 60 and 63 cm (might stretch a little in either direction). Preferably steel with an understated paint scheme in good to perfect condition, but will consider other materials and more extravagant styles. Must be able to post to France. Budget: up to ca € 500 /£ 440 for a complete bike.

this a bit of you?

I've been looking at that a few times, and your other bikes as well. Lots of nice stuff, but nothing quite right yet - was hoping you were hiding something up your sleeve actually, or that you would know of something not posted here (yet). First pick would be something a little more British; something that would suit a Brooks saddle and tape.

out o' luck with me for British,

thanks for the compliment, I'll keep my eyes open for you

I've got a Reynolds 531C frame & forks with wrapover stays, 64cm, paintwork isn't great and needs a respray but it is solid and very light for its size. Centre pull brakes, bars, levers, stem included.
Including postage via insured courier to France £86
PM with an email for more photos if of further interest.

This one is ready to ride, mint condition

braker had a Condor Heritage frame he was looking to sell. Not sure if he still is.

Sent you an email, Mr Bump.

Dumps: Think i saw that, but the 2011 paint scheme struck me as rather odd (green and orange?).

Still looking. Light touring/audax frames def a possibility.

I've got this:
Graham Weigh 531ST (Super Tourist), Dark Metallic Blue.
Seat Tube 60 cm (c-c) Top Tube 58.5 cm (c-c).
Black ITM bars & stem (80mm), Silver Shimano 600 Aero seat pillar. Shimano STX Cantilever Brakes with RSX levers, Shimano s/f q/r hubs 36h laced onto Mavic Open Pro SUP rims with double butted stainless steel spokes. CampagTriple chainset with Shimano 105 front mech, Shimano Ultegra long cage rear mech. 8 speed block with shimano 105 downtube shifters. Full mudguards, Rear pannier rack fitted to braze-on eyes. Top bag, but no panniers. Bottle cage bosses on downtube and seat tube.

Looking for £300, but shipping to France might be quite expensive.[/FONT]

Now that's more like it! Very nice dkmike. Not completely sold though, for some reason i dislike the look of cantilevers. Jeez, I'm beeing picky. Will consider your Weigh seriously, get back to you in a while. Thanks.

Just to completely butt in on this thread - Sveinung I can vouch for Graham Weigh old steel bikes they last forever

dkmike that wyld with fat tyres is mental - grass track? I've got a GW 531 touring bike that fits 35mm tyres - (not for sale though)

^Yes, the Wyld with the fat tyres is a Grass bike. It's actually an Ilkeston Raleigh, respayed. It has won medals at National level on the Grass.
