Pics sent to me by seller - I would assume '95ish, but I'm sure someone will know for sure.

The seller tells me 17"C-T & 21 1/2 C-C.

Too small for me - hopefully one day a late '90s in 18" or 19" will come along!

I'm pretty sure the frame is a 1993, one of the earliest of the bikes with bullet-ended stays.

It seems to have titanium P2s and stem, but it isn't clear whether these are part of the sale. They should be kept together, as the P2s are the shorter 39cm a-c so they are not so suitable for later frames. And similarly the frame is designed for that fork or for very short-travel suspension.

I believe the 1993 frames had the same head tube lengths as later frames, so if this is a size 17 (again one of the earliest size 17s, not imported to the UK at that time), it must have a 14cm steerer and is suitable for sizes up to 18 only.

The price seems very reasonable, even if it is for the frame alone.
