For Sale - an Early 90's (91 or 92?) Alan semi carbon Frame

Its a 16" with 21" toptube, i'm selling to fund the next build - wife and i agreed to only have one bike in the house at a time (currently there are 2.5).

As its around 17 years old there is a bit of damage cosmetically - hopefully you can pic this up from the photos, but no magor damage to the carbon. The downtube (front mech) cable stop has been ripped open - but a slot could be drilled in it so that the cable can be held in place with a zip tie (that was my intension).

weighs a smidge over the 3lbs mark, my kitchen scales say 1506g.

As the listing is a bit pic heavy i've resized the images, If you'd like full size pics emailed to you just pm me.

Looking for £80 posted to UK (cheque or paypal gift) ONO.
I can also supply the seat post bolt & lock nut/washers which are all titanium (cost me £18.00) and the 27.2mm seatpost shim shown in the pic for an extra £10 (i may use them on the next bike) so £90 total posted.

How are the carbon tubes ? Still stiff ?
A friend has an old Alan frame and his frame is chewing-gum now… :?:
 
Yeah no problems with the carbon, all of the bonding is nice and stiff. I built it up as a single speed and rode very well.

i forgot to mention that a previous owner (not me) has drilled holes to alan key mount a crud catcher which would have been not to the original frame spec - but concidering the bottle cage bolts are done the same way i dont see it as an issue.
 
See this is why i love this site, i had one of these it was my fave bike of all time and i was so gutted when i had to sell it. My one was full Deroe DX when i had and it was a dream to ride, although i didnt know at the time it was an alan i wasnt into history of my bikes then and the fella i bought it from in southport thought it was a prototype frame as he hadnt seen one himself before.

I still miss that bike today and if this frame was bigger i really would have been tempted tto buy it from you.
 
If it's 90 pounds posted to France, why not…
Do you have a lateral picture for a look of the geometry ?
