That Condor is lovely and @jogger is a gent, get buying people...

Great prices jogger 853 is ace to ride

Totally inappropriate, but do you reckon the condor would fit 'guards? What's the max tyre size?

I've been riding my 853 Ribble a lot recently, and it is basically just so lovely. I'd thoroughly recommend buying these.

The Raleigh could be so rowdy with all black build.

@Buckaroo Thanks.

Nah, no mud guards would fit.
25c I reckon, definitely no more.

Its a very comfy ride, floats along the road very nicely on 23c.

Shame, I'd love to own it but the only frame I can really justify replacing would be the everyday bike, which needs guards.

I have a 853 Claude Butler. Lively? It's alive!

FREE!!!! NOS Diavolo saddle cover to the lucky purchaser of either frame.

does the Raleigh has 55cm toptube (center to center) for sure?

@noca I'm pretty sure but will check again and get back to you. Cheers.

please do it ;)
I'm hoping it's a 54

Any chance you'd sell the time forks separately?

Sacrilege

Interesting. I almost asked if there might be a split on the condor.

Have (way less sexy) straight Pro 1" Carbon forks here for my ratty Batavus Pro with 5800 build.
But the Batavus is too long (57) more like an excuse to get parts and build.

Would still be a bit stupid, seeing how well the forks and frame look together, but might be an option (if all my clients pay me soon and someone is willing to box and ship the frame).

Hi @noca apologies for the delayed reply.
Top tube is 55cm I'm afraid.

Sorry, won't currently sell the forks separately.
Cheers.

thanks for letting me know ;)
too bad it's not a 54cm
Someone please buy this frame and ride it hard.

Is there any possibility of posting the Condor
