Anybody got any old school frames that are damaged and no use to them? Not crappy supermarket ones but bikes that might actually be nice if fixed. I'm talking things like flared steerer tubes and dented frame tubes or holes in places that shouldn't be.
I like to fix up things that are no longer any use and am looking for another frame to try fix up.
Have fixed some supermax frames that flared the steerer because the gusset was too rigid, have done a bit of a repair on a DB that had holes blown in it and was dented a lot (should be a nice rider)and so one as well as a few road bike repairs. I'm not good at anything so don't want to risk stuff people want saved but rather things they would toss. Just want a frame to learn on that noone else wants.
If you have one you don't want please let me know.
cheers Tim

Ok took a while to get it painted, but here it is............. Not sure what parts will end up on it, not to clued up on mid/new school, need some stickers too. The serial number on the BB is KCI5F0167 Can anyone shed light on what the numbers mean, I would love to get decals for it. It's a real race bike  I had an aluminium one but i like orange better, it was chrome whan Coasty sent it to me. The colour is lamborghini orange 2 pack. Coasty what year is it? |
