Hi,

Looking for a frame for my (incredibly) tall sister to do up. Condition is not terribly important just structurally sound.

~ 59/61 cm
Budget - £0-150
Can collect in London.

Will show my appreciation with a donation, soon.

Thanks

Look what Mario Vaz had for me today : D

Never thought I would be asking about track ends but do the ones on the carlton have a name/brand?

HUGE Somec

Paint job is awesome, would be all over that if I had the cash. Someone buy it please

Might be worth keeping an eye out for a 61 Fuji track or something, they can be had cheap now. I'm the same height and ride a 61 track, but it is ill fitting so I would measure yourself up properly to see exactly what you need. Have a search on here, I'm sure its been covered.

^ Great Pic...

People putting the high importance thing on emails used to drive me crazy.

I do hate being lied to though, I agree there.

Ace, how tall are you out of interest?

Best of luck with the sale.

hmmm... ask sam, it's much more about the TT length you ride - i wish i was tall enough to ride an XL swift though, they look frickin ace

You're right, that does look ace. I was curious how the aesthetics would change as the frame size went up actually. Will drop him a pm, thanks.

I'm 6'4" with a 37.5" inseam and ride an XL swift. I reckon it would fit someone a couple of inches taller pretty well. Look at TT measurements as well as head tube length (to see if the bars will be high enough if you have long legs like me) of the bikes you are interested in and compare them to your 26" bike.

Ah perfect, thanks for the help.

I'm a little confused about 29er frame sizing, i'm 6'5 and used to ride a 23" mountain bike (26" wheels), would a 22" 29er be necessary or could i get away with something like a 20/21?

Was wondering if the frames come up often either, i really liked the idea of a geared one but after a quick look around i can see an OTP Gary Fisher working out a lot cheaper.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Really want the frame, if only. Good luck

Hilarystone could probably sort you out, search for his wheel threads

Frame was picked up today, changed price on stem/bars slightly.

Frame sold.

It is a U lock i'm afraid.

Thanks

whats the inside diameter of the stem?
Interested.

I'll check later, is it 27.2 that indicates 531?

Have had pm's, will update soon.

Too small, riding a 61 at the moment.

I never actually built up because it wouldn't fit me either, I'm 6'5. I agree with Bainbridge, sorry mate.

Thanks

Few bits up for sale, frame has already been advertised here but the anti spam thing was killing me so this seemed easier.

Collection from E1, will meet within reason.

Kalloy Stem + Sr Sakae bars
Bought from VeloSolo but never got used, few scratches to bars where stem was put on but they wouldn't be used uncovered anyway, can see them here. Stem is 100mm.
£8 + £15 respectively. £20 together

Kryptonite Lock
Bought new from Wiggle but never used, not a primary lock.
£15

Bertille?

Glad i keep my bike in my halls at QM now, always thought it would be pretty safe considering all the people/security

Managed to get enough tickets after trawling through but now i can't pay, so bloody annoying.

Sorry I thought it was ok since they where on flickr "share your photos, Watch the world". You are joking, right, if not remove them from flickr and they will disappear from here?

Careful, he's French
