Lovely frame I have one myself and it's a great ride, good luck with the sale.

Yes I like it too but it's too small for me.

Re:

It's just the right size for me! I was thinking whilst on a wet muddy Cwmcarn last night that something with a disc option would be good.. hmm any idea of the weight of this? And do you need anything in part ex to soften the cashblow ?!

Hi, yes very light for a steel framed bike. I will weigh it later . I may consider part ex for some m730 xt or some m900 xtr kit. early 90s black rim wheels

Hi, Thanks, not sure I have anything quite that early but I'll have a look

Very nice. Rather tempted by the frame and some other bits...

How would this convert to rigid forks? As in, would it mess up the geometry?
I'm 5'11" - how do you think this might suit me?
One thing that appeals to me is the rack mounts as I do the odd bit of light touring. My 97 GT Karakoram (19") has recently died a death so I'd transfer almost all the parts over, although possibly invest in some newer rigid forks.

Ooooh

Hi, This model was designed for 80-100mm Suspension forks.There are lots of options for a rigid fork to suit the P7. Orange did a rigid fork called the F7. If you could get a set of them they would suit. Or something like a set of pace rc31 .

Thanks for that. Any chance of some more photies?
Is the 17" measurement C-T or C-C? And how to find the fit in relation to your height?

cheers.
