Petaluma built Salsa Ala Carte Frame - SOLD

[neebsta]

Size is 20.5" centre - top (of seat tube), and 22.5" actual top tube (23" effective). Columbus tubing throughout.

Bought from Suburbanreuben from this forum and treated to a full restoration at a not insignificant cost at Bob Jackson cycles where the top tube cable guides were replaced, re enamelled in a matching white colour with reproduction graphics from Gil M.

The frame has a couple of marks on the new paint work, pictured, but is generally in great fettle. I bought the frame and Control Tech seat post as a pair as I believe it's hard to come by this diameter seat post 27.0mm, which has also had replacement graphics from Gil M.

Full bike shot showing post

£225 frame only (Includes rear cable hanger and seat collar) - Seat collar is the original.

Lovely looking frame. What size headset/forks does it take?

Re:

These frames ride so so nice so if your thinking about a steel ride don't hang around thinking about it just buy it

OOh, this is tempting but I have too much on my plate.
An absolutely lovely frame; the only bike I've ever been able to trackstand on indefinitely, if that counts for anything.
Owned by me prior to Neebsta,and before that by a German chap from new.
No rust but he did make the bizarre decision to open out the brake cable stops ( in order to run Maguras) which broke when I tried to close them up. Hence the repair and respray.

It's in almost as new condition now - a terrific frame.
