SOLD - Dave Yates Columbus Max OR frame set

[donpedro]

Any suggestions for Sweden :?

Have you tried interparcel?
You really need to trim the box size right down to the bare minimum. Play around with the dimensions on the quotation page and see what's necessary/possible.
From memory, 98x55x22 is a lot cgheaper than 100x55x22 !

Was just wondering about your reply.
Also heard that Interparcel have resonable prices.
Later! /Pete

Does anyone have decent prices to Sweden?
Not as bad as Norway I suppose...

Hi All - been busy with Family so away from the forum - I'll try and answer all questions in one post...

I've added some more pics - showing it in 'touring mode'.

https://picasaweb.google.com/macky65/DaveYatesMaxOR26March2012?authuser=0&feat=directlink

It was originally made as a mountain race frame so
Chain stays are 16 3/4"
wheel base 42 1/2"
Effective top tube 23 1/2"
Mass - just over 2Kg
Resprayed and touring bits added in Jan 2001 - by Argos / original owner.

Frame nos 9497 - so guessing 1997 - only just retro ;-)

Interparcel - quoting £35-40 depending on insurance - though I'd still give preference to local collection as I'm short on 'me time'

Only selling - because of lack of use + need space - I may just hide it in the loft - its not worth stripping for the £100 offer!

Thanks for the interest.
regards Stuey

Thanks for the info Stuey!
IMO a very pretty and quite rare hand made frame.
Unfortunately I'd prefer a bit larger frames for touring.
So I better leave this bargain to someone ells!

Thanks Pete

Looks like I might be putting it in storage for my children to inherited / scratch their heads over on their hover boards.

Price drop bump

Price drop?

You have got to be kidding me! I am stunned that you don't have a queue of buyers for this frame.

I really don't need another project, or we would be doing a deal.

 

[was8v]

Bargain. I'd have this if it had another inch in the top tube!

 

[stuey]

23 1/2" should be enough for any man.

Yep a bargain - but needs to be ridden - not gather cobwebs. If an easy sale doesn't come along - "back up in the loft"

Thanks for the interest folks.
