Dean Ti frame

A nice condition Dean titanium frame. From the photo the serial number layout looks similar to those shown on Pip's Ti Kona register and it has bullet chainstay caps, so maybe built at TST?. Anyway here's the link......

Not heard of much over here. The welds are beautiful. Was going to build one way back but my interests have changed now, hence this sale. Excellent overall condition. Dry, dark, rack storage for the last 20+ years.

Yep TST, they built frames for a lot of Manufacturers, really need to find that list out.

Shame it is a 19" otherwise i would have been on their case.

I’m always dubious when a chainset and BB are included in a frame sale. Screams to me that the BB is stuck and having dealt with a stuck BB in a TI frame before it’s no fun

Haha so cynical!

But potentially accurate

Always a gamble but I can confirm the cranks and bottom bracket came out easily. Seller was a genuine bloke but did not have any specialist bike tools so had left them on. Looking forward to building this up once I've sourced a few more bits.

This looks like a nice frame to build up. Enjoy the process.

Thanks Phil,
I've pretty much got everything I need now to build this up, grey/silver outer cable is coming later this week and I'll probably post a build thread if I can sort the image hosting thing.

You don't need a host anymore. Just upload them directly into your post.

We'd all love to see it!

Righto, pictures are possible then. I'll start a dedicated build thread soon, a few decisions to make on what I have and I'll still be searching for a few bits I haven't got to make it 'right'. I had a quick layout a couple of weeks ago as pictured below.
