i've moved her enough from side to side, guess i need to let go.
what's the issue? beside the nice 2x4 forks with long dropouts and bolts,
short gt flipflop stem and the gt labeled lock nut the frame has its problems.

the frame has a small crack at the lower left end of the slot in the seat tube 🥲
also the drive side bb is stuck, but the left side is out. that all wasn't me.
i have no time and so many other builds and ideas. it's a pity, but i'll have to pass her on.

i'm thinking of 120€ as a hopefully fair amount for stem, headset and forks. shipping on top.
the damaged frame comes free with the rest in a way. one condition: if you manage to rescue her please text me :)

I had one of these in a 16” back in 1991. Waited 6 months for it to arrive! Seeing this brings back lots of happy memories.

Nice project for someone for sure! GLWS!

There was something about 90/91 Avalanche models and seized Bottom brackets all mine have come with them... the last one even failed my LBS. I ended up very carefully it drilling it out out with (three) Tungsten Carbide drills. What size is this one, ceo - looks like an 18 inch?

Phill, title states it’s a 16” looks like it is, as with rear drop outs level with the forks the top tube would have a more pronounced slope. Tempted??? 🤣👍

Doh! Thanks, I even re-read it twice! Even as I typed it I was thinking it was 16, 18" down tube and seat stays are almost parallel....and these are converging...Gonna sleep on it... ran out of space 3 frames ago.....
