where to buy frameset.

NeilMcEoigheann

Hey, i want to buy a modern 60cm alu road frame+fork for commuting duty as a single speed + singlator, can anyone recommend a place to get one for as cheep as possible, most of the bike shops are only interested in selling complete bikes or expensive framesets.
i'm not looking for an old raleigh type steel racer blasphamous as it sounds i don't like them anymore.
also if someone has one lying about that would help too.

Built up a carbon seat stay version 62 one of these http://chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=26893 for my brother about a year ago.

The carbon seatstay version does not seem to be on CRC's site anymore

He loves it, and I think it was an absolute bargain

Good selection of Kinesis frames at CRC too.

I think the Touche is around £200 - frame only - and is a fine job, well finished too.

http://www.cyclebasket.com/products.php?plid=m4b1s213p628 - same ballpark and supposed to be good

But Ribble have a Dolan Track frame - without forks - at £110

Course you have to add postage to all of these - around £20ish for a frame I'd say.

Nice one with track ends here:

dropouts can be swapped for vertical too to build it up geared

On one Il Pompino too
