I've got a Raleigh RSP frame frame that's probably around a 13-14" setup. Lovely frame, but I got a great deal on a Chameleon so it was built up for my wife to use. It's got both canti and disk mounts. Red paint. No stickers and the headtube badge is missing. Lovely frame but the missus now uses the Santa Cruz and I need something bigger to put the baby seat on the back of so it's doing very little in my shed. I'll get some pics later, think I have some at home!
Very tiny frame

Thanks all for your contributions so far and for the helpful PMs some of you have sent. Genuinely appreciate all of your suggestions - there seems much more out there in little frames than I imagined - no tiny Zaskars have come out of the woodwork yet which is a shame ......
Out of all of the suggestions so far I'm thinking about the British Eagle on ebay mainly because it's a bit quirky, unusual, British and really tiny so we'll see where we go from there.
Still open to further ideas

Tom Board MTB frame
I have a very small Tom Board frame for sale that was built for my son. Its 14in ctt frame with a 18.75in ctc top tube and is 130 mm across the rear ends. This was built for my son around 1998 but his first love has always been road racing so it has not seen a lot of use. However the paintwork has a number of marks the worst of which are the chain marks on the top of the right hand chainstay - this could easily be covered up with a chainstay protector. It takes 26in standard MTB wheels and is designed for use with V-style brakes. The fork is now not included...
I'd like £95 for it.

british eagle
How come you didn't buy the British Eagle then? The Fisher looks very nice and they ride well, I would go for that and a re paint, will look kool. I refurbed this early 90's Bravado for the GF, maybe look out for one of these and get it re finished? It now sports Bonty racelight wheels and Carbon CT2 Easton finishing kit.

Being a bit of an ebay wuss and not wanting to alarm the OH have unduly prior to the arrival of yet another bike a friend from this forum bid for it on my behalf so I presume we were pipped to the post at the end of the auction.
Not to worry - I'm in discussion with a couple of the contributors to this thread and hopefully will be able to make a purchase.

Thanks again to everyone for your helpful suggestions. The search is over and Hilary will be despatching the Tom Board frame to me shortly.
Why the Tom Board, I hear some of you ask? Well it's a little bit unusual - he also made great road frames so I understand (and I'm still a bit of a roadie at heart!) and a lovely quality, versatile frame EXACTLY my size.
So watch this space - once the Tom Boardman arrives I shall be thinking about the rest of the build and no doubt there will be some pictures to follow.
