Look 595 Frameset size Large

For sale is my beloved Look 595 frameset in size Large. It comes with a "re-post" seatpost, which allows for a larger range of saddle height adjustment.

I bought this off ebay 5 years ago from a chap who owned it from new. The seat tube was cut ever so slightly too short for my long legs hence why I purchased the Re-post.

However, there are a few minor issues that came to light after I had purchased it. The rear derailleur hanger part of the frame, I believe it has been repaired at some point in its life, as it looks non standard. I asked the previous owner if it had ever been crashed and he said no, so perhaps it's a non standard 595 drop out. Anyway, it works perfectly. It's a little thick so if you are thinking of running it 11 speed then I'm not sure you would be able to access the biggest cog. I was running it with sram force 10 speed just fine.

From a cosmetics standpoint, the paint on the top tube looks like its had a touch up at some point. The shade of white is ever so slightly different than the rest of the bike. It's minor but thought I'd mention it.

Some rubbing off of paint on the chainstays from my heels. Please have a look at the photos.

All that being said, I've ridden this 1000's of miles and loved every second of it. The 595 really is a spectacular frame. So much so that I've purchased another one new old stock that fits me better, hence this one is for sale.

The frameset is located in Rotherhithe, SE16. Viewings more than welcome.

Asking price is £450.

Thanks for looking. Any questions give me a shout.

Cheers

Ah sorry I got myself muddled with the sizes there.

Bit small for me (ignore the PM) and good luck with the sale.

Life's too short. Dibs it.

@Hovis - got any pictures of it built up?

Cheers,

TEMPTED BUT TOO BIG I THINK, HOW TALL ARE YOU @Hovis

I'm 177cm, but fit is very personal so not sure how useful that will be for you.

Here it is at the top of Sa Calobra in Mallorca, which I obviously climbed in the big ring.

Being ridden where it belongs

the hanger looks legit to me, my 595 had the same.

Here's a picture of steerer length.

75mm sticking out above headset cover. So 35mm of spacers possible for any Mamil needs.

Kidding. This is great news. How did you find it?

Well, not quite NOS. Got it off a chap who purchased it new, rode it a couple of times and then stored away, until his wife yelled at him enough that he finally got rid of it.

Now sold. Thanks all!

Now collected! Cheers Hovis
