Thanks likeclockwork looks a decent frame but will hang on to see if anything else crops up......need something to match the orange bomber Z1's I've sourced

Not sure whether you're sorted yet or not but....

I have a pretty tidy black Mk 1 DMR Trailstar hanging on my shed wall - I'd say it's had a very easy life by the looks of things. Stickers are getting a bit fragile but these are easily replaced. Bottom bracket threads are perfect and the frame is straight. It's got horizontal dropouts but the chain tugs have a mech hanger. The frame also has disc and canti mounts. It probably sizes up like a 16/17" frame but I can measure the top tube and head tube if you like...

Would go very nicely with those Z1's up front.

I'm looking for £50 posted including a DMR seatpost, early DMR chain tugs, and a nice chunky no-name seat clamp.

I have almost a bike work of bits kicking around if you're interested...

Cheers,

Mark
