. Ridden a bit, new arrival means it needs a new home.

Now has a Chris king headset. Yours for £150 plus postage at cost.

Looks like this one - http://bearbonesbikepacking.co.uk/phpBB ... ner#p55258 cos it is that one!

Has been ridden and some marks to prove it. But of chain slap and suck the most notable. It builds up into a nice light bike, pretty stiff frame but room for 2.4 out back with plenty of clearance.

Can take and send further pictures on request.

Frame only but I may be able to do some forks with it. I'm keeping the niners on another bike.

Tempting!

Is the rear spacing for 135mm QR?

Sure is, vertical drop outs. I ran it with regular QR and also 10x135 bolt through.

Normal BB, 1 1/8 head tube

Well that means I've got a set of wheels that would fit then...

You mentioned you've got a set of forks that you might be able to do with it too?

There is a set of rigid carbons with a 15mm bolt through axle (rare to find them in a straight steerer fork!) and I've another set but I seem to remember they have a short steerer. I'll look tonight.

The 15mm ones are what I had on the frame, £80 with the frame?

I may have some other bits kicking around if in need of stuff for a build :oops:

Sorry Ian - having to have a bit of a think.

The wheel set I've got is 9mm QR front and rear. While I'd rather have a 15mm hub up front as it'd give me more flexibility in the future I could do without spending the extra money now.

If the other fork you've got happens to be QR and have a long enough steerer then I'm definitely interested otherwise I'll carry on hunting for a decent price QR carbon fork.

Ok, I have some Hylix Carbon forks that fit. A short steerer but the head tube is short too so they'll work fine. Theres around 5cm for stem and spacers

Sounds good!

I live in S11 and work in S10 so if we can arrange a collection that'd be good. I'll send you a PM to arrange it.

Nice to meet you too Ian. And thanks for dropping the frame off.

Hopefully I might even see you out on a ride once I've got it built up.
