    I've got a stunning (54cm C to Ctop tube) GT GTR Ultra framest for sale. It has done 2000km max on French roads. Too long a top tube for me. These frames were used by the USA Olympic team. Sloping geometry, it comes with a Reynolds full-carbon fork, Headset, Syncros (carbon) seat post and seat clamp. It cost €900. I'm selling for €450 and it looks brand new.

    Hey,

    It looks like a lovely frame/fork,the frame i'm looking for is not for myself and he is looking for something with a smaller price tag,he has picked up few bits of a groupset and just looking to build up something for training on,I'd say around €100-€120 is what he wants to spend,that frame you have looks like new and to good for what he wants, I'm sure you will sell it no prob,

    Cheers zip,

    I'm selling this:

    You could get a 1" fork and a headset comfortably enough within the €200 mark, and then be riding a lovely Italian machine!

    Any threadless 1" fork would suit, and an external 1" headset too.

    Those were from a cursory glance at wiggle. Cheaper carbon forks can be found through the likes of ebay:

    Fair enough. I think this is a bit of a grey area, but pm me or preferably make on offer on the ad if you are interested.
