DB Axis - Melton Mowbray

[1978]

So the 28 people watching this should have received the 10% off discount message from ‘The seller’ as I did plus maybe others who just viewed the ad. But no one pulled the trigger even at that price. Still too much at £228 for a near full XT group set.

I’d have bitten at the full price by now if it wasn’t so very tiny. I suspect that’s what’s putting most off rather than the price.

I agree, a larger frame and it would have been snapped up.

It's taking a huge amount of willpower to resist. So much in fact, I've surprised myself. As a reward I might... oh no!

Sold at last

I think I speak for at least a couple of us when I say thanks for removing the temptation!

It's a beauty, in my eyes anyway - I love patina - the paint job on it is a cool design too, but it's obviously too small for most people, I'm only 5'8 with shoes on and it's very cramped, even a stem change wouldn't do it. I will keep it as is for a while and look at it, but ultimately I think it will be stripped down as I've got another frame waiting for the parts once my GT's are finished.
Love the forks too but they really need to stay with the frame.

I'm 5'4, and it probably would have been a reasonable fit, but I don't need any more bikes...ever... he says

If you split I’d be interested in the bars, stem, seat and post depending on diameter if they became available.
