Would second Condor, I bought a Super Acciaio a few years ago and for an off the peg steel frame its hard to beat in terms of price/quality - (made in Italy, Columbus spirit, 5 year warranty etc) its hard to beat or even match imo. I had very good service in the shop as well.

Ha amazing thanks!

I was watching this and it was just reduced in price so I bought it! 👍

That’s a kind offer thank you and I am only in Bromley so not far but tbh I would prefer to pay up the £40 for the convenience if I can’t find an unwanted one. 👍

London but it would be handy to have one as I need to swap it out of a frame which I want to sell before fitting it at a later date into the Condor. Will prob buy one on Friday if no luck on here.

I’m planning on fitting it to a Dave Yates built Condor to run a triple crankset, I should really stop being so tight fisted but I thought it was worth seeing if one out there unused before splashing the cash.

Seen this £40 posted bit more then I wanted to spend tbh hoping one unused going cheaper but really appreciate the share 👍

Anyone have one they would like to sell please? Many thanks

I have a Condor with the same Freuler geometry, very nice to ride and I personally prefer the look of extending the seat and head tube vs having a larger frame.

My 90’s Condor came with an ITM eclypse stem and super italia (or europa bars can’t remember now). Would recommend. Also has the same veloce headset which I’ve always been happy with. Dave Yates built Condors have to be right up there for the best British bicycles of that era?

Looks lovely 👌

Camden a couple of weeks ago, believe it’s a Dave Yates built Pendio (which is the older brother to the Fratello). Classy looking machine. 👌

Dave Yates has been posting on LFGSS, believe this is your bike in the thread below, its lovely, congrats! https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/condor-dave-yates-diablo.486970/

Would love to see this built up! Did you get the head badge from Condor or is it period? I might need to source a 1950's one but nothing online that I can find.
