Wanted: 54 or 55cm bike frame

Posted on
  • Looking to start a project but am having trouble finding a frame I like.

    Ideally I'm looking for a drilled track frame, lugged, reynolds tubing, chrome fork, 54 or 55cm, horizontal dropouts, no braze-ons, but would consider something close to that.

    Thanks so much,

    Paul

  • One suggestion: have a look at the Gazelle Champion Mondials that are regularly posted here. Some of them are track frames. Various advantages of the GCMs:

    • Very sweet ride, lovely frames.
    • Not fashionable (Dutch maker that mostly has a reputation for step-through Euro-clunkers), so relatively cheap.
    • Large quantities were made and are still around, so cheap.
    • Ticks your boxes for lugged and reynolds tubing (usually 531 or 531c). Some have chrome forks. The track versions should be as braze-on free as you want.



    You can see examples of track GCMs that have passed through this forum here and here.

  • Dirkbang has a 531 track frame your size with chrome forks and he wants £280.

    I have a Gazelle CM A frame and Gazelle forks...both 531...Seat tube is 54cm C2C.... but not a track model ie does not have track ends.....but has Campag horizontal drop outs....its a road frame but could easily be converted to fixed......£115 inc postage...pics available.

  • Cheers guys - appreciate that. Really like those Mondials itsbruce. Marxist_fixie - could I take a look at those pics?

  • PM sent with a link to my Gazelle f&f

  • I have a Soma Rush in black 55cm
