I bought this a while ago as I wanted to try and recreate a similar bike to one I had stolen in about 1992/3. Sadly I've decided that I need to move a few projects on and reclaim my garage and sanity, so this little lovely is up for grabs.

A lovely purple anodised frame made by Verlicchi for Rudy project. It's very tidy indeed with only a few marks to the stunningly bright purple finish. Headset is 1 1/4, and one is included as well as the forks. Judging by the drop outs on both frame and fork, it has seen very little use. The frame is very 'pace' with box section rear stays, but a more standard front end using round/ovalised tubing. The forks are awesome too, really beefy with interesting looking drop outs.

The only real negatives are that there is a bit of cable rub on top of the fork crown, and the decals that are present are starting to lift in some places, plus one downtube decal is missing. Gil_M has these on file I believe.

I sourced the correct stem for the bike too, a nice black one made by verlicchi. I was going for purple/black as I think it looks great and was how my old giant was before it was liberated from my ownership.

Frame measures 16.5 inches c2c and 18 inches c2t (which is actually a bit small for me, but it looked so nice I wanted to make it work).

I'm after £110 > £100 for the bundle inc UK postage.

Cheers, no cracks or dents on this one. If I was a touch taller and had more space (pick one from two), it would be staying put.

Price drop. I've also got some nos shocktech suspension forks with a 1 1/4 threaded steerer that would work with this frame. I was thinking about building this up with the forks and turquoise finishing kit, and have a few bits and bobs, plus a lovely boxes turquoise bolt kit that will be doing nothing if this goes.....
