My brother lives in Newton Abbot. I may well go down there myself before Christmas if that helps anyone.

£175 seems an optimistic price for a 95 Blizzard frame and forks in such a small size.

A 97 Kilauea frame (size eighteen) with RC36 forks, LX chainset and some wheels went for £85 on eBay on Saturday.

Agreed it is a tad expensive but I would imagine you could get it for £140-150 cash just before Xmas.

£85 for a Kilauea/RC36 rolling chassis is good but I'd be crushing my nuts on the top tube of an eighteen inch frame

Little frames seem to be harder to find for us short arses, picked up a 16" Breezer with Englund cart modded Judy and decent XT/Deore/Race Face/Titec finishing gear for £120 a fortnight ago so the bargains are out there......

Yes, that was my point really - that there's a bigger market for medium size frames, so you'd expect better bargains in the small sizes, although that Breezer is definitely a steal.

Maybe this bloke with his Blizzard is just trying out his free local advertising board to see if there's any mugs around, before taking on the real world on eBay if that fails. I know his Mag 21s could be worth a few quid, but I still wouldn't see his f/f fetching £140 let alone £175. That's if he's got the size right, which half of them haven't!
