    For Sale ***SOLD*** 1992 GT Karakoram unfinished project - 22.5" c-c frame

    It's a lovely frame for sure. P.S. the seatpost in the pics is only slightly in the seat tube as to not scratch it for any new owner. I'm 6' 4" and have it way lower than shown

    I know right! The paint is actually light grey... I'll get some better pics on a ride in the next day or so and post them

    1991 Look Mi60

    Agreed, I gave it a service and took it out for a blast out near my house this evening to see how it rides. I'll be keeping it as is and will add M735 XT kit as and when parts come my way. I'll have to swap the bars out for a wider one though, that's a definite. Having 530mm bars is not for me...

    For Sale 1997 Merlin Cycles (UK) Rare Tange externally spiral butted frame & Tange fork & extras

    Hi, just measured...it's 23" exactly c-c top tube. For tyre clearance...I did a build using this frame to gauge sizing and it ended up too small so on the same day I disassembled it and donated most parts to a larger frame I had that better fit me. The tyres I used were Maxxis Holy Roller 2.4's...

    Same, more allen keys than spokes on my bikes now probably! This set is definitely best bang for the buck though (minus the plastic parts)

    Marin Geometry / Nuances 1991 - 1996

    my '95 Pine Mountain 19" (BB to centre of top tube) is currently runing 2.0 Conti Race Kings but in a past version of itself I had 2.4 Maxxis Holy Rollers on. 2.4 is the ABSOLUTE max you can fit on the rear, as even then it only gives 2-3 mm tyre clearance on the chain stays, but more on the...

    BoTM BotM September 2021 - nominations

    Thanks! No it's a DyedBro 'SpaceTrip' vinyl frame protection kit. As the bike is Spray.Bike'd I wasn't sure how well the paint would last with stone chips etc so probably went overboard and wrapped all the main risk areas, but I love the end result
