Having lunch at work right now so better description and the all important pictures will go up this evening.
Small 1993 gator attitude frame, mc1 bar/stem 120mm 0deg with noodle, cut down a bit with slightly crunchy ends, inc bottom bracket (113mm from memory) and headset (bearings are a bit graunchy). The seat tube is 31.6, I can throw in a black basic pin if you like. Fork not included (alas I have plans for it)
This is no show bike but is a solid enough rider, paint is faded on the top tube but fairly vibrant elsewhere, exit holes are undrilled and seatpost slot is fine. There's a tiny insignificant amount of paint bubble under the bb. Some chainsuck has been thrown in for good measure and has been rubbed smooth ready for re touching. There are several scratches, scrapes and chips and a little dint on the side of the top tube......Under close scrutiny this looks rather messy but stand a few feet away and it looks magnificent.
My original plan for this was to swap and barter it up to a size that fits me and keep it forever. Alas I have been slapped around the face this week with a horrific array of bills so the plans seem to have fallen by the wayside.
£550 paypal. I can post within mainland UK for £15
***********I have hit a wee technical problem with this lil chappie, under inspection I was perplexed why the threads in the gear hanger were grey in colour. After a little prod with a screwdriver the treads lifted out in one piece........Alas a loctite thread bodge :evil: . So its down to the frame builders to get a helicoil installed. For now this sale is on hold until I can get the problem remedied. Sorry to disappoint y'all.****************
