17.5" Alpinestars Al Mega Frame. Complete with 1.25" headset and Alpinestars Seat Collar/Rear Canti Hanger.
The Bad Bits:
It's cracked
. The crack is a t-shape and is on the back of the seat tube. I have removed the paint to make the crack easy to see.
It WAS virtually NOS, but customs got their grubby mitts on it when it was on it's way to me, and it now has a few battle scars from when they repacked it by what seems to be just throwing everything back into the box from about 10 feet away :shock: :roll:. I have pictured the scars. The mark on the chainstay is from them putting the front wheel back in the wrong way around (it was only padded on one side). The bike then obviously had no protection between wheel and frame. Luckily the wheels came away unscathed.
The Good Bits
The crack is easily repaired, and I have already received a quote of £60 for the work, from BETD. You are welcome to phone them to check.
The paint has not faded, and apart from the fight that it had with customs, it's in great shape and the neon is still as eye-popping as it was back in '91!
The forks (for sale separately, but will do them as a bundle with the frame) are perfect. Any marks on them are dirt/oil. Decals are intact. Dropouts are intact.
