1999 Orange Evo 2 frame Seat tube measures 15" from centre of BB to top The paint on this has been touched up badly (nail varnish), and is flaking off on the inside of the NDS dropout. There's also a bit of paint bubbling on the wishbone. No dents. Disc or v-brake but the v-brake bosses have...

Avid BB7 Road cable disc calipers These have lost a lot of paint as you can see from the photos. The aluminium doesn't appear to be corroded though. They were working really nicely right up until just last week when they were removed, although now I have removed them the action of the actuator...
