Ebay and auction watch: let us know if you see something

That looks like a super-bargain; thankfully for my bank balance it's too small and has placcy forks..

I put it on in the hope that someone here gets a bargain and removes the temptation I am feeling!

lol - I guess it's potentially not a million miles away and IIRC you're on the smaller side, so it might just fit you nicely...?

Stop it. Now.

You swine.

Serious hat on for a moment and cheap Ti appears to have a bit of a rep for cracking, while old and / or unknown composite in general seems to be (rightfully IMO) treated with caution..

Go on you know you want it 😉

Ooh that is cheap. Apart from it being too far away, my problem is that he's listed it as a 55cm frame, but I thought Spa did 54 or 56cm sizes.

I think it's a 52cm seat post with 55cm top tube. Perfect for me...

I may have just asked for confirmation of the size as I could probably justify the tank of diesel and 9 hour round trip if it's a larger frame.

Looks at the smaller end to me, although has a fairly horizontal top tube and with modern geometry varying as much as it does quoted frame sizes (other than reach and stack) become pretty meaningless IMO..

If it's a 52 would you let me/us know, please?

Will do.
I also asked what height rider it's set up for in the pictures as the saddle looks a little low, but there's plenty of spacers & a flipped stem up front. I'll put any info received on here unless some bugger dives in and buys it in the meantime.

Whew! It's sold, but not to me.

 

[Jenkins]

Wasn't me either.

 

[biggs682]

Not me 😔

"Interesting" Raleigh SBDU TT(?) bike for those with vintage aero aspirations and the flexibility of an elastic band:

Bang some panniers on that and it'd be great for popping down the shops
