What size are you looking for?

Golfanatic

around 18 inch anything should do what you have anyways. i think im sorted but still open to others

sean_d

I've an old aluminium Scott Elite Racing frame, 19.5"
Free to a good home if you wanted it....could probably do with a lick of black paint for deterent purposes

hey,

If OP doesn't want this frame, i'd like to take it. Been looking for frame to build a single speed mtb. Does it have disc mounts?

thanks

sean_d

It does, yes

ciarsciars

Thanks Sean_d. The frame sounds ideal for what I’m looking for, sizing sounds good too. If the OP doesn’t want it, could I be next in line?

Golfanatic

hi interested in this frame my other one fell through unfortunately yer mans buildin her up if thats ok ciarsciars? where are you located sean_d im in dun laoghaire. any chance of some pics of it?

sean_d

I'm off the M50 at Ballymount.
Here's a bad phone pic.
Frame, seatpost and bottle cages are free - frame is well used and has plenty of scratches, and 2 small dinges on the toptube caused by the brake levers.

I can also throw in the fork (Marzocchi Marathon SL - needs a service) stem, carbon bars and headset for a few euro, if you're interested?

Golfanatic

thats cool how much for forks? im ok at servicin them so mite aswell would you be able to meet somwhere closer to me i have school so its hard to get placese

sean_d

60 quid for the lot?
I can deliver later in the evenings

Golfanatic

sean_d

Golfanatic

ciarsciars

thanks

sean_d

@Golfanatic - ok

@ciarsciars - you've second dibs. Keeping everything together would be my definite preference, but seeing as it's Golfanatic's thread I have to give him the option on it first, I guess.
