Trombone engottened! Many thanks @Chak
It’s currently SRAM Force 2x10 with skinny Challenge tyres and TRP Eurox cantis. Plan for whatever frame I got was Ultegra 6800-powered 1x11 monster truck. I’m undecided on the yellow Euroxen. They do look awesome…

Found the Diatech headset that it came with. It’s got a built-in canti hanger.

For reasons I won’t go into, I’m pleased to say this didn’t leave me out of pocket with an incomplete journey.

Updated the dimensions on the first post.

Thread bump. (I have a FREE all-carbon fork that would go well with this FREE but horrible paint job FREE collection in N19)

Seat tube is ctc, it’s about 51.5 to the top (which is, as you can see, curved).
Head tube is 15cms.
I’m 191cms and used it with a riser (with a lonnnnng seatpost and a 110mm stem). Seatpost diameter is 27.2 btw.

I’ve had a couple of enquiries about this frame that I mentioned in the Rockhopper thread, so will be offering it to those two people first.
This one has been well used (see linked pics for details of the dings and scrapes) and I’ve enjoyed owning it. BUT. It’s too small for how I want to use it and I already have a 26er fRaNkEnBodGe that meets my can’t-have-nice-things kink.

Tange triple-butted tubes
ctc 58cms top tube
ctc 48cms seat tube (approx 51 to the top)
15cms head tube
68mm bottom bracket shell
takes 27.2 seatpost
approx 220mm on the steererIt’s large. Long and low. The tubing is surprisingly lightweight. Includes a junk headset that works. And a Ritchey stem (not shown).
BIG BLEMISH FACT: There’s a little crimping on the chain stays to give crankset clearance. It’s not overly pinched, but you see it if you’re looking for it.
Other blems are where paint has been lost. I removed bits of flaking paint and waxed the bare steel. You’ll want to sort that out. It’s all sound, and the threads are clean. But the frame needs some tlc.
