I have too many things going on to complete this, so an unfinished project for someone. I resprayed it in matt black recently and added some gloss black GT decals. Still have some left over, but smaller decals.
Frame measurements: seat tube 20", top tube 23". Takes disc brakes so wheel options! Originally it had 26" wheels. 6061 butted tubes. 1 1/8, 68mm bb. 27.2 seatpost included. New rear mech hanger.
Forks: came with the frame. Nothing special but I don't need them. Suntour XCMv2, 120mm. I stripped and regreased them, so lots of bounce. Unfortunately the lockout switch is plastic and doesn't work.
Hydraulic brakes came with the frame. Tektro Auriga comp. I have bleed them and added new mineral oil. They do need new pads though, which I have on order (30.08.2024). Will include these in the sale.
Suntour chainset 42,32,22, 175mm. Takes a 122.5 mm tapered bb.
Complete Headset included but I removed the crown racer off the forks as I tried another fork.
Front mech Shimano budget, top swing but works.
This would make a great gravel or free ride bike.
Looking for £125, can post at buyer's cost £20?
Based in mid Essex but can meet at Liverpool Street Station. -

Came off an old 26" 1960s and 27" bikes. Tatty and need a clean. There are 2 X front and 1 X rear (long). The rear mudguard, the top fitting missing and the stay is off, need a bolt for this. 1x front has a stay attached and can be used. The other front has no fittings attached. They may be useful or salvageable. Based in Mid Essex or from Liverpool St station.

Good condition, QR hubs spin smoothly. Non cassette as has freewheel fitting. Tyres ok. These came off a Specialized Hotrock. I can remove the freewheel if required, it is 7sp and is ok for use. Rims have minimum amount of wear, so a lot of life in these yet.
Looking for £40. Based Mid Essex but occasionally travel to Liverpool St. Can post for an extra £10. -

For sale, my very little used road bike frame which is a composite mix of 7076 triple butted tubing and 12k carbon rear mono stay with carbon front forks. The reason I am selling is because I need to make space. I have owned this for 11 years and most of the time it was just sat there and I never really found the time to use it for what I intended. In this time, I think it has covered around 25 miles, criminal! Details are:
Hand welded 7076 triple butted alloy tubes, believed to be Dedacciai Force. Diamond shape down tube - lovely.
Mono seat stay carbon 12k
Front fork carbon 3k with 10cm alloy steerer
Head and seat angles a racey 73 degrees
Heat tube 16.5cm
Top tube ctc 56cm
Seat tube ctc 56cm and ctt 58cm
Chainstays 41cm
Rear 130 oln, front 100 oln
Seat tube 27.2mm
English bb 68mm
Internal headset branded Token, roller bearings.
Top tube is straight, not sloping
Frame, forks and h/set weight 2.2kg approx.
Suit rider height 5'10 upwards. I am 5'11 with 31" leg.
Rides really nicely, fast, stiff and responsive and light. Identical to Condor Italia RC from 2009/10.
Asking for £350. Can drop off at Liverpool St Station or within the City. -

Size 231/2” 60 cm - centre to top of seat tube frame. Full 531 frame and forks and 27” wheels. Gears are 12speed with suntour down tube shifters, sach r/d, shimano freehub 14-24, maillard front hub and campagnolo rear hub, weinmann 610 centre pull brakes, sakae sa 170mm chainset 50/36, rims weinmann. Rear OLN is 126mm but with a little persuasion can get a 130mm in there. No saddle or pedals will be sold with the bike as these are personal items.
Overall condition is good for age. Frame paint does have surface rust which with more effort may rub off. There are chips to the paint and rashes and areas could do with touching up here and there. The chrome has rust in places especially on one side. It does however imo, give it some nice patina.
Frame threads are all good and I personally chased the bottom bracket shell, the eyelets and the frame bosses.
I have done some sympathetic restoration with a clean and light oiling here and there. Stem and post are free moving. New grease in b/b and the axle and bearings were all good when I had it all apart. Still a lot of life left in this. Even the chainset rings have lots of life left in it.
The two areas that will need addressing are; it needs a new chain as this is worn by my gauge and the rear rim is slightly wobbling. Somebody before me has trued it straight but if I was keeping it, I would put a new rim on it. I did put a new rear tube in as the old one was flat.
These frames do take 700c wheels and with a little adjustment with the brakes and rear frame dropout threads.
Overall, this rides nicely and is smooth. I would consider keeping it and restoring it myself but it is a little on the big size for me and I have other projects before this one. If you are looking for a new rolling project with scope to improve it even more so, this will be a good one to go with.
I have an unused 27x1/1/4 Michelin World tour tyre and some natty alu full guards I can throw in for the buyer if interested.
I am based in mid Essex but travel into the city of London twice a week.
I have one of these frames in the same size, and can vouch that they give a great ride. The 4130 tubing is light and comfortable tube set.
