I assume you're after a complete bike and not just a frame?

 

[park1]

I am but am not against the idea of a self build. What have you got?

 

[AndyRM]

I've a 58cm Bianchi Via Nirone frame gathering dust. Aluminium with integrated headset. Couple marks, but sound otherwise. £70 plus postage and it's yours.

Edited to add that I've got some bits and pieces to start a build with - hubs, brake calipers and chainset. May have other stuff but I'd need to have a hunt in the parts box.

Drop me a PM if you're interested.

I have a 2012 Allez which was just serviced and in fantastic condition. 54cm frame. Black.

Hi AndyRM
Thanks for the offer but I think I'm going to go for a complete bike.

Hi uzair, 54 is too small for me thanks, 56-58 is my size

Still looking - ideally for something in the SW as I'd want to view before buying.
Cheers
Dan
