Sold: B Carré (I think) frameset 56cm

Posted on
  • I have this rather pretty frameset for sale. It was sold to me as a B Carré - a frame builder in Paris, I think in the 60s and 70s. Someone may know more about this than me. Rode it single speed as a commuter for a couple of years. Very nice comfortable ride.

    £60.

    Collection from Putney, Blackfriars or somewhere in between.

    It's a really nice frame, chrome is in good condition and has chrome lugs at the front, ZEUS stamped dropouts. The paint is pretty ratty but I think it looks good that way. Think it has 120mm spacing, but will check.

    Comes with a french threaded BB which are hard to get hold of, Stronglight headset and Laprade fluted seatpost. Modern chrome forks. Can also include the pictured Turbo saddle, 3T Status stem and ETC swept risers, and bottle cage for a bit more money (equally will sell these separately).

  • Really like this! If you have no local takers and you fancy posting, let me know; otherwise, GLWS.

  • Thanks! I think it's pretty. Will give it a few days and let you know.

  • Sold, sorry @Jalopy-Véloist just had someone come for some other parts and take this too!

  • No worries, man. It is a bit of a faff posting to be fair. All the best.
