    Looking for a TT frame, budget probably wouldn't stretch as far as carbon but anything considered. Don't mind if it has no forks either.

    Cheers,

    i know cyclebike have a couple of quintana roo TT framesets in stock, not sure how much they are selling for, but I would imagine you could get them at a good price because they are older stock.

    same as this but with a black white and flame paint job

    I've been on the look-out too. Missed a few (ie wasn't prepared to pay asking) and followed a number on eBay - as ever, this is a lottery and sometimes frames go for far more than you might value them. It might be necessary to buy more than the frame and then sell off the parts to recoup some of your costs.

    I have just bought a frame off eBay and am awaiting delivery, so we'll see how it goes.....

    Don't understand why everyone keeps overlooking the Ribble TT frame...

    That's what I'd have bought if I didn't get a good deal on a whole bike....

    At the risk of hi-jacking the OPs search...
    The Ribble is not that lightweight, and by the time you add headset, fork and seatpost to the €160 for the frame, its not that cheap either, compared to picking up something used - there again, comparing used with new isn't always fair TBH.

    If you're in a hurry though and can't wait for something second hand to pop up, it's a great deal.

    Weight isn't really a huge factor when it comes to a TT bike, the important thing is the position.
