Orange C16r 17in frame in Blue Sale/Swaps?

[Wold Ranger]

Now splitting this up to hopefully speed up a sale as a frame only with all parts available. It's in good condition and will go with the XT Headset, Seat pin/clamp and and SK8 stem and F8 forks. I can include any other parts, these are available if required, pm me for a price.. Under the new rules, these Sad politically correct nanny state non retro biker rules, I have to put a price on it so I want £5000, but will take suitably reduced bids from sensible peeps! BUT really want to swap for a decent 8 speed wheelset, so WHY got?

This is Orange's 17 inch size 15 ctc with a 21.5 ctc top tube.

That looks like what Orange call a 17".

Orange measure center to top, may help broaden the appeal.

My heart bleeds.

The reason for putting these rules in place was made pretty obvious in the first instance. With this whole offers by PM thing people (such as yourself) were clearly looking to make as much cash as possible out of fellow retrobike users. As mentioned before this is a site run by enthusiasts for enthusiasts - not somewhere for you to turn a quick buck. If you had a problem with these rules why not post in the original thread here rather than making a few weasely comments on other threads?

If you have a problem the new rules I suggest the following

1. Pull you finger out and list it on ebay. The market will decide.
2. List it on singletrackworld and invite offers. In that way you can have the first 3 posters telling you how your bike is old shit, the next three as to how they bought the same last week for £50.


Otherwise play fair and you can continue selling your stuff here.
