Here is something you don't see for sale every day. 
I bought this from member Bas about 6 months ago with the intention to build it up and ride it. I love freak bikes from the 90´s. But I have also ended up with a couple of more frames since I bought it. I need to make the decision to slim down a little because I don't have space for them all built up, and I am not one to put frames in the attic just to keep them. I want them built up so I can use them. Therefore this will go up for sale again. :/
A little history about the frame from a post here on Retrobike: viewtopic.php?t=463
"As most of you probably are not so familiar with the Rafty brand, first an introduction on Rafty: Rafty was a small framebuilder in Haarlem, The Netherlands. All frame's were custom made and Rafty's can be considered as very exclusive. I won't be susprised if all polished Rafty's can be counted on only one hand. The frames were built by Edward Hagen, over here also known as iceskater. For additional information go to http://www.hagencycle.nl/ were you will be informed on Edward's current brand Hagen Cycles. "
I was told they were about 4000eur new. So this is a high end bike. Hand built alu bike.
The condition is great. Some wear to the frame, but all in all in good shape with some paint chips here and there. But no dings, cracks or anything like that. It only needs a proper cleaning and polish and then it can be built up again. Most wear is to the right chain stay. See pics.
Included in the sale:
Frame, headset, seat clamp, Manitou 4 fork, Rafty blue stem (imagine trying to find one of those
), Magura brakes and FD.
Asking 310 eur net to me for everything. I just want it to go to a good home and be built up again. Shipping will probably be around 50-60 eur, but I need to pack it up, weigh it and check. Buyer pays actual shipping cost.
