Aborted Project Part 2 Litespeed Obed Frame**£450 UK Posted*

[Harryburgundy]

I'll be spliiting down the build over the weekend, so the frame will be ready for posting early/mid next week.

1996 Litespeed Obed

Seat-tube measured centre to top 17.25"
Top-tube actual centre to centre 21"
Top-tube effective about 21.5"
Head-tube 4.5"
BB 68mm
FM clamp 31.8
Seat-post 27.2
Seat-post clamp 31.8

Welded triple top-tube cable stops
Cantilever cable stop (run V's or canti's)

Satin finish.

Condition is excellent. Some minor cable rub, some barely worth mentioning chain slap (and I mean very minor). The welding is very, very tidy..it's a beautiful frame but I prefer the feel of steel.

Some 'ghosting' where the original decals have been removed.

I have a nearly complete set of 97 decals that I imported from Litespeed...they are almost identical to 96 decals.
These are dry-fix decals-full Litespeed instructions will be supplied.

Mr G also has a set he is working on although I am not sure how far he has got.

£500 + fully insured shipping wherever you live.

I am interested in PXing. I need/want a 68x 113 Ti BB, I'm also interested in small 16/17" steel frame Fat Chance etc EDIT Still interested in a Fat, but something more modern would be more sensible

Some pictures...first shows as half built with the decals removed. Others show some of the welding (sorry about the funny angles) and finally the decals.

Ta, Carl

you don't mention headtube diameter ?
seems to be 1 1/8 ?

Unlikely, but I'd be interested in the decals only

I'd take what looks like a salsa seat colar.

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...thought to myself....no-one can ask any dimension type Q's...and I forgot the head-tube. Yes...1/8th

Guys..I'll be in touch about the forks and clamp...your interest duly noted

Come on...lets wrap this up...£450 UK Posted.

 

[Harryburgundy]

Jeez..the dry-fix are difficult to apply ( well, requires delicate handling and patience)
One side done...I'll do the side early next week. Looking good.
Last bump before Ebay
PX something small and steel...WHY?

 

[dr.juggles]

oh snap :cry: why is it too small?

a dream frame for a very good price.

if it was a 19" you had a buyer.

good luck with the sale harry.
