Ha! This is the closest to a touring frame I've found in nearly a year of yard sale hunting and nearly daily craigslist watching. A few frames have come along in my size, but they are either very expensive (near the cost of a brand new frame) or they have problems, such as cantilever bosses for 27" rims or narrow chainstay clearance. I probably have missed a few frames on eBay, because my budget was originally much smaller. My patience has as led me to stretch that budget a bit.
