Wanted: Frame/complete bike, single speed build for a mate, 56cm-ish....

Hello - anyone got anything interesting? Basically, he's 6 foot ish, looking to put together a light-ish single speed, ideally with rack/mud guard eyelets, but not essential... something ratty but nice, peugeot/surly/on-one etc, anything out there?

Cheers

Don't know if this would be suitable? http://www.lfgss.com/thread119374.html

Cheers for this - looks lovely, but probably a little pricey for us - reckon we've got £250 for build, so rather not spend much more than £100 on frame... should have indicated budget earlier, cheers for suggestion tho.

I've got several tasty frames that I'm going to list soon (next week maybe?) . Mostly vintage/handmade goodness but also a Peugeot road frame that is freshly refinished and powder coated (traditional Peugeot blue/white forks) including BB & headset and, IIRC, a seatpost. Should all be suitable as I'm also '6 foot-ish'!

Got a pair of wheels (aero rims/flip-flop/inc tyres); cheap but not wretched, as well as a complete, fresh bike (dammit, I don't want to!), but over your budget (by £150 or so).

Actuallly, re-reading what you're after, should point out that the Peugeot is a road frame (braze-on for shifter and vertical dropouts). All the others are /horizontal rear dropout.

Cheers for this - definitely interested in seeing pics of all/any frames you're selling, peugeot sounds like a possibility and can always be converted to single speed use if necessary... do send over link to sales thread or PM with pics when you can - nice one!

No probs! Just bought a new camera to get moving with my (unexpected) selling spree but haven't even taken it out of the box yet! Might have a few pics of the frames hiding in my hard drive, I'll have a proper look tomorrow and PM you if I manage to find any.

this with totally nuts paint job, NOS Italian frame set, full bike available, put probably not your thing if you want rat look :(

Sure it pretty! What would you want for the frame?

Got any 55cm frames in that lot?

Dunno if this would fit the bill?

Should have said, I am 5' 10" and this will be cool for someone of up to 6'1" or 6'2".

Funnily enough just searching around for the info and photos right now. So far what I have is:

1 x 55.5cm (that's the Peugeot)
2 x 56cm
1 x 57cm

I'll hang on to more details for a little longer because digging out the old pics has made me a sad panda - bought them for a a reason (because I think they're gorgeous) but having to get rid unexpectedly and it's quite a wrench!

Ah, I see the forum isn't keen on my formatting.

cheers for this, not quite what we're after I don't think...
