    Dave Marsh 50cm badged as a Colnago 24" front £140 --> 110

    A sloping Lo-pro time trial frame that I was told by the seller (ebay) was originally a Dave Marsh which was convincing given it's obviously not a Colnago and it's similar to other Dave Marshs out there.

    I think it was meant to sport a single ring up front given the no front mech hanger braze-on

    CTT : 500
    Top Tube: 500 (effective), 560 (actual)
    OLD: 126mm (springs to 130mm just fine)
    English BB 68mm,
    It's like a bluey purple to yellow patterned fade

    Suntour front and rear ends, Cinelli BB shell, heart shaped lug cutouts, unknown tubing but it's pretty delicate, Internal top tube and cable routing, internally threaded seat clamp bolt (m4,m5 or something)

    700c rear, 24" front

    Has a 1" threaded notsurewhich campagnolo Headset in there but with mismatching stronglight locknut, The headset is smooth but the bearing ball/cage are like really shot (the balls won't stay in the race and it was a nightmare to repack), The races were good but a little pitted I remember so would be very functional with new balls and cages but worth replacing.

    No dents, missing some paint flakes most notably on the head tube (pictured)

    Arthur Caygill 50cm (micro?) Lo-pro £sold

    Another Ebay lo-pro which I never even built up, I found out the hard way that the BB shell was italian and the inside of the BB shell had some light rust so I cleaned it out as best I could and flushed all the tubes out with boiled linseed oil to rust-proof it (by order of the internet) and then proceeded to never make a bike of it

    Top Tube: 500
    Centre to seat tube extension: 520
    CTT: 460 (60 of seat tube extension)
    OLD: 130mm Italian 70mm BB shell
    27.2 seatpost
    700c front and rear
    paint is a dark purple with pretty funky white splatter

    1" threaded Shimano 600 headset which is in super nice condition visually and functionally, internally threaded seat tube clamp again, internal cable routing which is seeing some rust (pictures), reynolds 653 Record apparently, real nice sloping fork crown

    The bb in there is a new italian Giga X pipe which goes with a Truvativ Gxp Elita (pictured) compact chainset 172.5, which the buyer can take both for 30 on top , also you can have the bb it came with which was an 115mm shimano 3 piece BB which would probably clean up good

    Unknown Pursuit Frame 24" front £SOLD TO user57235

    I got this off the forum and it's had a few owners on here (threads might still be around)

    It has this J.C.Ruffier decal over the paint on the top tube which one of the previous sellers claimed wasn't a builder but the owner of the frame, Ruffier is a french surname and the BB is french threaded fyi

    OLD: 120mm
    Centre to very top of the seat tube: 590 (effective)
    Top Tube: 580(diagonal from seat tube to head tube) maybe 500 (Effective) The drop from top of seat tube to head tube was something like 200mm

    -I'll make A little dimension drawing if there is interest-

    24" front, 700c rear, internally threaded seattube clamp, Paint is an absolute mess in a lot of places, the pink highligher wasn't me, damage to the paint concentrated at the bb shelland head tube but it's pretty much everywhere. To keep it rust-free I nail varnished over all the areas where bare steel was exposed with a peachy transparent varnish which I can remove if it pleases the buyer.

    French BB which means options are Phil Wood, Velo orange, Threadless or Old stock as far as I can remember. It came with a pretty long (maybe 127mm) three piece BB which was good to go but would need an older stronglight or campy pista crankset to give the correct chainline,

    Headset is a Stronglight A9, which is fine

    I've got some front 24" wheels which will hopefully be useless to me soon:

    1. Radiallly laced, wolber profile 18 tubular 24" rim, mavic 501 hub, vittoria corsa cx servizio corse tubular tyre £55 --> 35

    2. 3 cross laced, mavic cx18 tubular 24" tubular rim, mavic 500 hub, vittoria crono cs squadre prof tubular tyre £55 --> 35 (provissionally sold to user57235)

    3. a dumb home-built wheel which is a second hand hope hub (butter smooth) laced with I forgot DT swiss spokes to a Sun rims ICI-1 24" clincer rim in a weird 3x pattern i thought was neat at the time, Schwalbe Durano 24" tyre. Never properly tensioned the spokes up so its a little out of true and was built by a complete amateur £65 --> 40

    The Tubular wheels are in exceptional condition all-over and the clincher is in as-new condition except for the hope hub which is in excellent condition.

    Will split wheels up if interest in hubs/rims.

    All offers/comments welcome, Thanks for reading and let me know if I missed anything
