SOLD,Klein Adroit Race ,Chehalis built, frame only NOS

As per title ,Chehalis built,takes tapered steerer,no forks nor headset bearings and no mech hanger ,mettalic green -purple fade ,NOS ,unridden ,was stripped down and parts swapped over by shop and bought frame off them,there are odd marks in clear coat due to storage over past 20+ yrs ,1998 production ,bought in ‘99,serial number in photo,seat tube 45cm c-c /49 c-top,headtube 12.5 cm,top tube 58cm c-c,Klein size large, ,looking for £200 happy to told Iam off but please don’t turn it into a RetroBike hate thread ,happy to box up correctly and post if buyer pays,thanks happy answer any questions,Stef

I think this is a ‘99 model. Do you know what headset this takes? I think the Adroits ran the tapered down head tubes so need an adaptor to run a reg 1 1/18 fork. I might be off the mark there but could do with knowing in case I end up sh1t out of luck getting a new headset. Cheers

Klein sold out in 95. I always thought it was 97 until I was rightly corrected on here few months back

1996 and beyond is under Trek ownership.

Thanks all ,I need to sit down and work out accurately the year I got her ,I listed her as pre-Trek as frame says ‘made in Chehalis’ ,which to most of us is probably the more important distinction,I need to re-read Gary’s interview in Rouleur magazine,it definitely has the tapered headset ,the ‘99 date sounds accurate as it sparks a memory of talking about Lance Armstrong with the mechanic at the shop ,Iam going to try and adjust listing ,adjusting date ,taking out Trek but maybe adding Chehalis

It’s a 98 - I can see it now I’ve got on a laptop not the phone. 21L is frame size and 0998 is Sept 1998 production

Many thanks ,will amend,that all makes sense with regarda to my memory of nattering about lance in June ‘99

Hi mate, do you still have this?

A 99 model, Chehalis made...

Hi Stef, sorry - I can’t Pm yet as I haven’t enough posts. Having priced up bearings, headset adapter and hanger it pushes me way past what I want to spend to be honest. Thanks for coming back to me tho, cheers
