    Suitable for rim brakes.
    Threaded Bottom Bracket.
    Capable of taking 28mm tyres.
    Must be in v. good/excellent condition.
    It's to replace a Planet X Carbon Pro.

    I know you are looking for Carbon but if you are stuck I have a nice aluminium frame for sale that meets your criteria elsewhere on Boards Adverts.

    How about a Principia? Sean Kelly An Post team used these frames for a few years.

    It's BB86, not threaded but I'll sell it with Campy carbon crankset so you won't have to change the BB (you can replace bearings without removing cups if need be!). I've never had any creaks or issues with it although in fairness I don't produce a lot of power:o

    I've been using it with 28 tyres but they're tight!

    Wrt size it's a Large (EFT 565) but the cut seatpost will suit a rider up to 6'3" or 6'4" and there's plenty of steerer.

    Thanks Paul, but wouldn't suit.
    I've just bought a new Sram Force GXP compact chainset and bottom bracket, that will be going on the frame, that I buy.
