• This frame has always been slightly too big for me and has sat unbuilt in a cupboard for the last year, so it's time to go to a new home.

    Vitus GTI triple butted tubes and Campagnolo dropouts.

    This frame was excellent fun as my first SS/FG. Gears were trickier for me - I could never get reliable shifting in the middle of the cassette. Could be the rear triangle alignment (I suspect it's not 100% straight as a die) or the ropey groupset I was running...

    The seat post clamp area is a bit of an issue. I've been using it with a 26.8mm post (measured by Brixton Cycles) however I've broken a couple of seat post bolts when trying to tighten up in the past. The tube entrance measures 26.8mm in one direction and 26.5mm the other way so something has gone slightly wrong somewhere.

    FSA cartridge headset is included, running smoothly.
