Very tempting. But what’s with the weird geometry? 53x57 and a shallow angle headtube?

Also - this whole thing of labelling road frames as “fixies/track weapons” is really getting out of hand.

3

long arms / short legs?

4

Exactly it’s a custom frame after all.

5

For a gorilla?

6

apparently gorillas ride bikes too haha

There’s other reasons for having a longer top tube than just strange body dimensions…

Crit frames sometimes have this geometry for a more aero position, or it can simply be a compact design to change the handling and you can set it up to fit the same as a square frame with a positive rise stem and or spacers. But imo it looks like ass to do that so you’ll have no competition from me on this frame!

I’ll play… will need a monster seat post… but i need a frame for my ergo stem!

I would ask where its measured.
Could be overall top centres seat or some thing like that.

10

I’m sick of these misleading titles… fixie/track rubbish. As gypsy points out, it’s a ROAD frame!

11

Don’t forget the old “mint condition - a few minor scratches”.

Feeling a bit crazy, I put a bid on this and won. I have a hunch the geometry is actually going to work out fine.

Daggy late 90s roadbike build coming right up.

And MAX!

Good score! Do keep us all in the loop!

14

Have a hunch? Or you asked him how he measured it?

15

but those vertical dropouts are a dream to convert to a “fixie or track weapon.”…
