Whyte Preston 1

I am thinking about buying this on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=290312079476

which is missing its middle "triangle" part of the frame.

daft Question but does anyone know what sizes these came in and what components varied in size?

for example if they did small/Medium/Large were the forks and rear triangle all the same and just the middle triangle bigger/smaller?

cheers

looks like a whole lot of hassle - better off with a Marin as they were designed by Whyte (former f1 Benneton engineer?)

youre probably right - BTW he said he will post it if anyone wants it for spares!

They are the same size as Marin FS, so 15.5", 17.5" & 19.5" centre to centre. The Whytes are interesting to ride, but not my liking. As for the ad, i'd leave it :roll:

:shock: Big project

-----------
You're more likely to find a complete whyte bike and such a project may eat up funds or become a non started

IMHO ,i'd leave it for the next enthusiastic bunny
After my Amp rebuild project i found the elation soon wears into, How Much did i spend :shock:
