Dave Yates Reynolds fillet brazed 853 frame. XTR 950 MTB

I’ve done the same for a long time though probably across a wider age/type and at a lower end of the quality scale to @d8mok
Buy well and you end up with the stuff you wanted and sell off the stuff you don’t to offset the cost of what you’ve kept. Excluding a couple of ā€œbirthday presentsā€ I’m cost neutral. You do end up with some piles of stuff that no one wants and I’d feel bad about chucking away - manky seat posts/stems, toeclips and straps, light brackets, low end brakes/gears etc. To me that’s part of the hobby. Some folk end up with really high end stuff without really throwing lots of cash at it.
I’m not Granniegear either!

Yep I’m also cost neutral on everything I own. I have a bike account and when it’s empty it’s empty until I sell a a few bits. I do sometimes splurge on an item I need but again comes from that pot of cash.
 
Yes it would be split for sure.

Drop me a pm with what you’d be happy to pay for the frame.

If I can make it cover the costs and let me keep the cranks it might be worth it
Just heard back from the seller and it has a 22ā€ TT c-c, so I’m out sadly
