Raleigh Road Ace 531c Frame & Forks

[Midlife]

Presumably the frame is 126? you could almost do that by springing the rear end.........

Hello-this is almost exactly what I'm after and I'm in Newcastle...but I need 130mm spacing - do you know of anyone local who could cold set it?

Hi there,
As Shaun says the spacing is 126mm so would probably spring to 130mm. According to Sheldon Brown going one size up is not usually a problem http://sheldonbrown.com/frame-spacing.html
If you wanted it cold set then maybe try M Steel in Newcastle.
Drop me a PM if you are interested, I've just put the frame on ebay today but theres no bids so don't mind ending the auction if you want it.
Cheers,
Nick

Maybe, but will that bring problems?

I'm interested in frame/forks if you split. I think "dibs" is the word. . . I could collect from Newcastle.

Is the 54 centre BB to seat tube top?

What is top tube length?

What is seatpost diameter? [edit: I'm sure it's 27.2mm, the one I have is 27.0mm. I wonder if you'd be kind enough to include it with the frame? I was going to ask for the headset too but I'm guessing Delilah should have it as part of the gruppo ?]
