Something has to go - I have a car to pay for- so since the low stance is causing me elbow grief, it's this little beauty.
One of the first Petaluma built Ala Cartes, this frame is in stunning condition, with a completely rust free seat tube, and is virtually rust free over the entire frame. The only rust I can find is some VERY light spidering under the top tube. Other than that, nothing! And no dents either. There is the odd scratches , the worst being on the Salsa decal, but this frame is solid, and alignment is perfect!
There is one small problem; There are no brake cable stops. It has been run with Magura rim brakes, and the previous (first) owner decided to drill out the stops to take not just the brake hose, but an aluminium tube to carry the hose. They were stretched to the limit, and on trying to close them up again, broke. I filed the remains down and painted over. The white is not a perfect match.

Size is 20.5" centre - top (of seat tube), and 22.5" actual top tube (23" effective).
I am asking £175 for the frame and seat clamp, but free to make me an ooffer.
Other stuff will be listed later, and include:
Cook Bros Cranks, Bullseye/517 wheels, Salsa stem, ControlTech post and red ti Flite, All in pretty spiffy condition.

Cheers, Nick

Thanks, it is indeed very nice. Grin a minute handling yet all day comfortable, (except for me elbow...) It's also the only bike I've ever been able to track stand for more than a few seconds.

Nope. It is 22.2mm for 1" steerers, 120mm zero deg, but no roller.
