errrrrrrrrr I think I might be doing something a bit rash.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120984755500? ... 97.c0.m619

I am rather tall but placing a bid on this may have been a wee bit incautious and I'm praying another BFG outbids me

Only time will tell :?

If I do win it and it doesn't fit, you lot will get first refusal.

Edit:
I realise as I've typed this that it might be misconstrued as an attempt to bump up the bidding. Its not, its yet another I wish I'd engaged gear before pressing submit moment

Please feel free to move or dump this post.

Crikey !

That's gotta be the largest frame I've ever seen ?
Will you be restoring it to its former glory once you win it ?

:facepalm:

You can cancel bids on ebay you know

Looks like a candidate for a little 'adjustment' at your local frame builder!

I'd like to meet the guy who originally rode it.... actually, on second thoughts.....

Huge frame, must be hard selling it.

 

[velomaniac]

Nope not going to cancel bid but not going to raise it. I reckon I'm just big enough to ride it and thus it'd be really cool but I'll not cry if someone else gets it

When I saw the first photo on eBay I thought the frame looked all out of whack - like the image had been squished or compressed or something!

I can't quite get my head around how small the forks are compared to the frame...

 

[lanab]

Exactly my thought as well, the photo was squeezed somehwat, this frame must have been custom ordered right? never seen anything in this size before.

That's one big frame! How tall are you if I may ask? Wonder if the frame flexes a lot under a tall/heavy rider - might benefit from a double top tube design.
