Wanted:Relaxed MTB

[barry2017]

Hello guys-
I'm looking for a frame to replace my old Puegeot Alpine.
Ideal size is 18"-20". The more relaxed the angles the better.
King, obviously, would be another early Puegeot MTB, before they sold the badge off . I had a Dakar 21 frame. It had 531 main tubes, was lightweight but not stupidly so, and it would have been perfect, but I sold it about a month before I broke my complete bike. :evil:
It doesn't have to be made with esoteric materials, it just needs to be straight and free of dents, with nothing siezed.
I'll also consider other makes, or a complete bike.
Cash waiting for the right thing. Don't be shy!
Chris

This take your fancy?

18" frame.

Very nice. It's really a bit less relaxed than I was after, but it looks gorgeous. What rear spacing does it have?

I'll do the measurements tonight for you.

I'm after £35 posted for it, and will chuck in a stem too

Andrè- thanks, but I think I will pass. That's a nice looking bike, but I will have to pay import duties on it, which rather puts me off.
martintobikes- again, thanks for offering the bikes, but they're not what I'm looking for.
I really want something a bit earlier than any of these. Does anyone have an old Courier Comp frameset knocking about? Something of that ilk would be exactly what I'm after. I'd prefer one with cantis, but could live with a u-brake.

I'm still looking!

Hi Chris,

I've worked in import/export, trust me there is no VAT or import duty on purchases made within the EU.

Cheers

That's useful to know, cheers!
Have been really stung buying stuff in the past.
Still looking for a frame, though!
