Sacreligous goat

[elite504]

I don't normally post here, but I need someone to mourn with me. Look at the fakkin state of this. . . Through bolted seat tube (where it should have the little wedge clamp that inspired Geoff Ringlé on the zooka Ahead stem), what looks likes 24" forks- the thing is just a state. ..

We're already mourning that in another thread

Drilling the frame to bolt the seat post is indeed a travesty. :cry:

I don't know much about Goats, other than being fine frames. What does he mean by headtube modification? How should it be?

I imagine it's got something to do with those "hoops" visible on the bottom right pic. I don't think they were original.

Yeah, saw those ugly things, I didn't know if it was a difference in model years or something along those lines.

400 bucks! He's having a larf!

I think he has just set a catchall $400 international shipping rate, probably will be much lower to UK if you ask him for a specific (it says $400 to me in Canada too) especially if you just want the frame. It's in a terrible state, but watch it go high anyway................

paint is called California Yuppie or Yuppieflage

that's how the head tube should look like. painted like the rest of the frame and without those "re-inforcement" thingies
