Fat Chance Wicked 1987 Frame and Fork double-U
Well I didn't get very far with this, but I've hopefully done some good work for the next owner.
I got it off Mojo Ti a little while back see original listing along with catalogue scan:
http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewto ... p;t=381226
What I have done is add a period correct u-brake fork and a NOS Shimano 600EX headset.
Frame in generally good condition, can't find any dings, couple of paint chips here and there and a bit of chain suck. Seatpost is always a good sign of how the last owner treated the bike and this one is the original Strong 26.4 which slides easily in and out and has not been overtightened etc. Forks are in good condition, at the moment they have a hammerite finish. So new owner may want to paint them. Perfectly usable as they are however. Steerer in excellent condition. Press fit bottom bracket is original and is pretty good.
So, frame, forks, headset, original BB, FD, seat post and seat post clamp is £300 - SOLD plus £10 UK post. Europe shipping a possibility too.
Wheels, u-brake, saddle and bottle cage not included.
Standover height is 30" (with the 1.95 tyres pumped up).
top tube c-c is 23"
seat tube centre to top of top tube is roughly 19"
