Oh balls! Does that little emoji mean you still have this?
There’s a Middleburn crank in my garage would look lovely on this.

Thanks lads
Just bumping it up, both this and my year 1999/2000 853 Alves in the other for sale section are both still available and both still hanging on the wall in my back room... :facepalm:
Forks and headset are no longer available, it’s just the frame now.
I do still have the old black hyperlite bars and the stem pictured but the bars were cut down and are quite faded now, stem is fine.
Frame was originally built for cantis, but at some point I had the brake bridge removed and the brake tube trimmed back for v-brakes, although a clamp-on cable stop around the seat post would allow cantis if required.
Click below on the pink Alves 531 in my signature it’ll take you to a thread I started four years ago...
