You got yourself a feckin bargain.... well done that man! :shock:

Let me know if you do not want the frame- for some reason it has a strange appeal, asked the seller if he would post but got no reply :cry:

cheap as chips that is!

I had the same frame years ago but it was badged up as an "iboc comp" and was one of their top frames under the iboc pro.

theres a pic here:-

This one is a 16 inch though may be some use as a slalom type bike for down at chick sands....but to be honest I was only looking for some cheap v-brakes!!

If I decide to let it go, ill let you know.

Anyone want some quadras....?
