For Sale: Nagasawa Track special keirin frame 58.5

Nagasawa track frame, purchased in 2009 when i was out there for a keirin season. Genuine bike rides great, stiff as can be with heavy walled Tange tubing. Dimensions are 59.5 top tube CTC and 58.5 seat tube CTC and a 17.5 head tube.
Dura-Ace holotech 170mm cranks and bottom bracket. Dura ace headset. Nitto stem 140mm with steep drop. Nitto seat pin with Kashimax 5 gold seat. All parts are NJS legal and approved still in date etc. Deep candy red (Nakano red?) with pearl finish so shines really nice in the sunshine. Gold transfers. Still has Keirin accreditation on the frame with race number and stamps.
Lovely bike but has scratches on drop outs where wheel has been in and out and on chain stays where chain has slapped down travelling etc. Otherwise mint, no dints or been crashed. Only selling to fund home improvements. Expensive new.

Make me an offer £1200

I think i have the Nagasawa build sheet too, with all the angles and measurements etc.

Very nice.

But, there is no way you'll get that price on here.

Good luck

Agreed. Was about to say the same.

Is Nippon back?

Look at all the people waiting next to the microwave to put their popcorn on!

Very nice. If all the parts were new, which they're not, you'd effectively be asking £700 for that frame. Given they're not, I reckon you're pushing your luck...quite a lot.

Still very nice

Nope, not Nippon.

Crampo is actually a well-known track cyclist, of repute, and a general all-round good guy.

The price is just higher for a F&F than most would be willing to part with, even for a F&F as nice as that.

crampo = matt crampton ?

Also bear in mind this was hand built and to find the larger sizes is very rare,I ended up paying nearly 600 for my Panasonic with duties and what have you and it's not as nice as the above by a long way.

Indeed, someone could buy it for that amount and consider it a nice way to help support a British track cyclist.

Or you could all group buy it for me for Christmas and in doing so help two people at once ;)

(Though then I'd have to buy a wheelset, and I'm too broke for even that)

^oxymoron.

this has just made me decide to send my mercian off for a ruby flam/gold spray.

My Panasonic is going to Japan next year and might do the same when it comes back.

Why was I born so vertically challenged?

Nope, not Nippon.

Most != all.

Buyer could also factor in the fact it's not a crashed kierin frame like most on the market and that it has a certain about of um.. what's the word.. provenance. Though, don't tell RPM or Smithy I said that about any filthy Brit.. cough ;)

Would love to see that frame properly photographed.
Work of Art.

Slam that stem! Hardcore.

(free bump for a badass bike)

Man just bought a Audi tt last week if I've seen this before would have got this otherwise

59.5cm tt with 140mm stem? seems very long

Boom! freebumpz

Insanely nice frame. I'd be happy to pay close to that price for that...if I had the money...

New price £800, Make me an offer.

NJS ain't what it used to be? What are the hipster hoards doing now? Won't someone think of Team GB the children?!
