Wanted: 56cm frame S/S bike

Posted on
  • ok i really want to try a single speed road bike with some bomb proof wheels (many spokes) and a flip flop rear hub with one fixed and one free wheel setup style, probably looking on the smaller setup with ease of mind for climbing hills (maybe 42 / 16/18 ?? :-).

    i'm looking to buy this for some leisurely touring rides and the odd flattish moderate ride, looking for puncture protection if possible tyre wise and handle bar style prefer the charge bull horn look and feel, ideally with brakes both front and rear due to the "freehub" element of use.

    i plan to ride free hub in a group while trying out fixed when on a solo ride out.

    if someone has a ideal fit sitting around not being used give me a shout, i'm not in any real rush but it's something on my list to get, i live in Berkshire and around 35-55 mins drive away from m25 motorway. ideally local if possible .. price wise as useual cheap as possible...

    also forgot to add i need the geometry style that means my feet will miss the front wheel when pedaling and turning the front wheel (some older bikes are so close that your toes catch the wheel when doing so)

  • Got this available which seems to fit pretty well!

    Got some bullhorns you can swap in for the drops. And the extra couple of cm's may be ok depending on hour height?

  • I might have just what you're after...

    I have a 59cm c-t chromoly frame with everything but the wheels which I could do for about £100. I believe its 46/16.
    I also have a set of nice wheels (many spokes!), hardly ridden, not sure on the rims but they are laced to Miche high-flange hubs, I'd do the lot together for £150, meaning you could ride it away there and then.

    Drop us a PM if you are interested :)

  • Still got this frame: http://www.lfgss.com/thread72502.html 56 colner, pm me if you are intrested. I'll be in london beginning of feb, yours for 99 if you can collect

  • hi youth & Slaz, i think your frames are a little on the large side for me...

    hi Kay, this is more my side but onfortunatley it's just frame, i'm looking for a complete bike ideally..

    I've seen this but i'm guessing it's a load of pap with no brade name and just "high tensile steel" frame material.... (and colour is just awful....
