The clear coat is chipped in a few places, i've photographed the worst of it on the top tube. I also have the original dropouts if you wanted to run it with gears.

Re:

The latter :wink:

This sort of build is enough to offend people on here sometimes :lol: but im not one of those people, in fact i like it, im a fan of retro/modern. You can tell thats too much travel up front for this frame but i think its cool 8)

I think your gonna have to split it up to get any sort of fair price for it bud. Otherwise its gonna be hard to shift and youll probably get a few silly offers in the meantime

if you do split though, i would be interested on the xtr levers

If you are asking if its priced to high, then yes, its a bit too high. The frames can sell for as little as 10% of your original asking price with full builds for not much more.

No-one has commented on the look either so its doubtful if anyone is actually offended. Except maybe those who think it does are perhaps masking their own inadequacies, or need to fettle a cantilever brake in secret, fearful of exclusion from their social group.
