Wanted: Touring frame - 52ish cm

Posted on
  • Hello,

    I'm looking to build up something for the girlfriend for a bit of touring through France next year. Frame needs to have the following:

    • 52 cm or thereabout seat tube
    • Mudguard and at least rear rack bosses
    • Fit 700c wheels
    • Clearance for around 35 tyres
    • Cantilever brake bosses

    Would love to find her something with a bit of character, something like the below Koga Miyata World Traveler, or a similar steel frame, Yates, Bob Jackson... you get the idea ;) Would also consider a complete bike.

  • Is this going to be geared?!

  • Yup!

  • Had a couple of offers but still on the lookout!

  • Touring in France?
    How about an early 1950's 650B french Randonneur bike?

  • I personally love it, however the girlfriend does not I'm afraid! Still open to suggestions...

  • Money burning a hole!

  • Got a lovely Custom built Swinnerton Cycles frame in british racing green - Built by Roy Swinnerton in '82, 531st tubing - BUT it is 54cm..

  • Got any pics? 54cm would be the absolute limit.

  • Sorry its sold now.

  • A road frame? But a good one!

    Pinarello montello, 52 square but with no eyelets......

  • Need eyelets for a rack to carry all the cheese and wine and the like!

  • Evening is the green Captivante 50s randonneur still available?
