*** FOR SALE ***
VITUS 979 DURALINOX (bonded alu)
-- 56cm c-c, ENG (?) bottom bracket (the serial number begins with 'E')
-- VITUS Duralinox forks (very light) (threaded)
-- Original transfer of 'DURALINOX' on the forks
SALE: £50.TRIED UPLOADING PHOTOS OF THIS LOVELY FRAME. I SEEM TO BE DOING SOMETHING WRONG, NO MATTER HOW MUCH I REDUCE THE RESOLUTION. THIS IS VERY ANNOYING!! PLEASE PM FOR PHOTOS.
I bought this new. I paid just £350 for it as a friend was moving abroad. I used it for seven months (!), then I got all 'artistic' and decided to put a DIY coat of yellow paint sections over the bare aluminium to jazz it up. I think it looked cool at the time!
Again, this is a regrettable sale. It was put into storage in the same attic when I went to live abroad in 1998.NOTE
- I am in he process of moving house and reducing the size of my bike parts. A painful but necessary process. Onward.
- As soon as I get the (damn) photos on there, I will. Sorry about this in the meantime. It's a lovely frame.
- I ALSO have some nice bike parts I am willing to consider INCLUDING for FREE.
- WE NEED TO DISCUSS THE POSTAGE/DELIVERY OPTIONS. THIS IS ALREADY A 'STEAL' (ahem, aluminium) OF A FRAME.
Thanks :)

-- Light blue
-- AMBROSIO Carbon fork, steel steerer, straight blades

SALE:£50
PLEASE PM ME FOR PICS. I'LL SEND THEM.
I HAVE TRIED TO REDUCE THE PICTURES TO THEIR SMALLEST RESOLUTION (640x480) SO THEY COULD UPLOAD. THEY JUST WON'T UPLOAD!! (Sorry.)I bought this frame from HARRY ROWLAND and rode it for one just under 9 months, and then got a nicer bike (a FONDRIEST), so this was put away and untouched in the attic for about 7 years!
Aesthetically, there are some frame scratches and chips, but the frame and forks are very strong -- the overall condition is great. It's also fairly light considering the thickness of the tubing.
I would love to keep this frame, but I can't. This is a regrettable sale.NOTE
Please read the following (you may now REALLY LIKE what you are about to read).
This is not a joke or a cheap PR tactic, rather a serious sale for a serious buyer (aka not someone who makes me a counter-derisory offer as someone recently did -- I thank you in advance for not even considering doing that to me):***** SPECIAL OFFER FOR THOSE WHO CAN "COME & COLLECT" *****
IF you are able to promptly come and collect what I am about to list below (I am based in MARGATE, KENT), YOU CAN HAVE THE LOT.
*THE LOT* = £70.
THAT MEANS:
- AMBROSIO FRAME & FORKS (the ITM stem is NOT available).
- VITUS 979 FRAME & FORKS.
- ALL THE BIKE BITS I HAVE (the Campag RECORD rear mech is NOT available) FROM THE PHOTOS I SEND YOU and WHATEVER ELSE I HAVE IN THE ATTIC (some clothing, other parts, etc.) WHERE ALL THE GOODIES ARE SAFELY STORED (!).
ALSO:
- This is an extremely cheap sale (going for a song, in fact). I'm moving house and have very little time on my hands. I have to destuff certain elements of my life, so to speak. Fast.
- WE WOULD NEED TO DISCUSS THE POSTAGE/DELIVERY COSTS TO COME TO AN AGREEMENT AS THIS IS ALREADY A VERY GOOD BARGAIN. THE "COME & COLLECT" WOULD BE BEST IF YOU (OBVIOUSLY) LIVE RELATIVELY CLOSE TO THANET, KENT.
- I am ALSO selling a VITUS 979 Alu separately (you will find the post as soon you look it up under my username).
- I ALSO have some bike parts that I may include FREE with this sale. Some of these parts are very nice. PM me for details/pics.
- The person who gets this stuff first will be laughing. YES, I am losing out a lot here, but so be it.
- AMBROSIO DB Lite 7005 (Nervex)

Hi.
I'm new on here. Just joined.
I am also selling a VITUS 979. 56cm. Just like this one, same spec., except it has some painted sections. Original stickers etc.

Until then. -
