Good Afternoon Everyone
I already have Giant bikes. One is a hybrid which was saved by me and rescued from the junkpile by a friend who didn't appreciate older bikes and later upgraded it and it rides so nicely that it is one my favorite long haul bikes. The other one was bought as a frame only and it was an ATX 870 Bronco which turned into a fantastic MTB. I have read a lot about Giant's older TCR and Cadex frames but I wanted something nice and made of steel. Then I saw this very nice purple Kronos frame in mint condition at a bargain price of 180€ , also it is lightweight 2790grams so 100grams heavier than my Daccordi Top Alloy and 190grams heavier than my Daccordi Classico, so how could I not resist. The frame is in very good condition as usual Dura Ace 7800 will be planned . Craftsmanship on it is truely nice. I even bet , it is even lighter than my Peugeot. The bike is made of Giant's own custom steel tubing so I think a good thing.
Have nice day
Very best regards and stay safe

Super-interesting fork crown with that tyre clearancing. I’m not familiar with this era Giants and I haven’t seen that feature before.
