Kevin, can you please measure the top tube length (centre to centre) and the seat tube length (centre of bottom bracket to the top of the seat tube).

Thanks

Sorry for the slow response Iâ€™m 6ft but this frame is really too small for me it does not have any down tube braze ons for shifters. The top tube is 54cm centre to centre and the seat tube is 50cm centre to centre. (These are the sloping measurements

Marco [quote] im after a new frame but it doesnt appear to have braze ons for downtube shifters...!?

I've still got this sitting in my shed. If anyone in the club wants it for Â£50 it yours. Otherwise its on e bay next week.

Top tube 554mm

Too big for me otherwise I would've 'fixed it. It's really nice for having seen it. Looks like titanium too!

Would probably fit you Adam, and make a very nice winter bike. 55cm top tube is the important one, forget the 50cm seat tube which sounds small for you as these Giants have quite a big slope on the top tube.

Ok, im sold...

My bikefitting.com stuff from Sigma's when I got my Trek says its as close as I can get without going custom. Its definately smaller than the Trek, but ill just need one massive seat post and probably a good sized stem. But it would be good to be more relaxed anyway, then I can use it for Uni too and shelve the fixed idea for now.

So, Â£50 and when and where...

...I have PM'd you my number Kevin...

Cheers!

Oh, re the fixed, may well get one come next summer... when the Giant may evolve into my TT weapon... :twisted:

Oh and thanks for the info Sylv

Adam Ive pm'ed you

by **Kasper** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 8:48 pm

Nice Frame!!!!

If I'd been quicker out of the starting blocks it could've been mine.

It's found a good home with you Adam!!!

50 quid for a titanium frame with carbon front forks!!!! Too good to be true surely!!!!!

ANyone for a spot of gazumping????

by **Kasper** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 9:32 pm

Oh, yeah, I knew that LOL

It's in Addiscombe club colours and you didn't buy it because it doesn't have downtube shifters? :roll:

What's wrong with you Marco?

I know you wanted to go with the vintage retro appeal of a steel Roberts frame WITH downtube shifters BUT WHY?????

:lol:

by **Kasper** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 9:34 pm

Looks like I'll have to adopt Adam's fixed idea as my reason for buying a new bike.

Ps. Adam if the frame turns out to be too big for you I think with my longer leaner more time trialliing physique I think I could find a good home for the Giant Tcr frame you've stolen for the bargain price of 50 quid.

by **-Adam-** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 10:52 pm

Kasper, never fear, if me and the Giant don't get on, its yours...
