Tempting, the size would be ok for me....do you know anything about the maker ?

Quite like this as well https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pinarell...9&sd=132282787108&_trksid=p5411.c100169.m2942

Looks like a complete wheel & tyre has just been swapped from another bike. Maybe has been crashed or wheel stolen?
Fine doing that on a cheap clunker (like the sort of thing I mainly own), but it looks a bit out of place here.

Looks 21" ish to me

Messaged the seller and he says the frame is 50cm crank to top tube .....too small l fear !

I would for sure and Skipdiver John may have a point

Very tidy looking 80s Claude Butler in Bridgend for two hundred sovs

And all original by the looks of it.

That's what a proper bike looks like, not some oddly-shaped CF frame and ugly wheels with ultra-deep rims and hardly any spokes!

I'd find that very hard to resist if the seller was close by. It's what I would have owned as a teenager if I'd had the money. Super bikes they are, and it looks just my size as well!

That doesn't look to bad in all fairness and a bargain either way

Just a shame not a bit closer although Lincoln is not a million miles away in fact its about 85 and just under 2 hours

I might be in Lincoln at the end of this month ... and it'd fit me

Hmm, l feel that there ought to be a commer between Wrigley and gents and after the 9 in the price not after the 1
