Bargain 17" Orange Prestige £66 BIN Ripon

Re:

Cheers for that, snapped it up!

Too small for me so it'll either be flipped or built up with period parts and sold on. Might even get it powder coated black but we'll see. :cool:

Currently got a new bike pot filling up so any proceeds will go to that. :D
 
Alison popped it up on FaceBook as unknown but I identified it.
Serial start A203 (is iirc).

To far for me to collect so I passed it by and she didn't want a lot for it. Put it up for what I valued the frame and forks for (Alu Forks). Actually less than I said they would be worth a tops (given the respray).

231 wheelset, M737 rear mech, LX front ?
A DX/Suntour shifter setup and early 00's V's iirc
 
Re:

Picked it up today and all seemed well until I noticed what looks like a crack on the seat post by the bottom bracket :facepalm:
 
Re:

Doesn't seem to be but I will have a better look. The sound of rust in the tubes was the first thing that worried me.

Only paid £50 so if anyone wants it for the parts let me know other wise it will be going back.
 
Re:

I will check. ;)

Had a proper look and it's cracked right round behind the chain rings. Contacted the seller who basically accused me of doing it! :facepalm:

Can't even be bothered arguing any more so will split and get back my cash. Negative feedback ahoy!
