Doesn't look like much right now but only needs a deep clean, saddle, tires, chain and lube.
90's Stumpjumper with Tange Prestige frame
Considering a trade for a smaller frame, maybe diamond road frame that could be a single speed or something.

Also up for consideration a 1984 Centurion Elite RS (in addition to the 22.5 Trek Cirrus (520)) - Picked these up on Craigslist and discovered that I need to get into a 25" frame for my basic rider

Frame or whole bicycle swap

Southern California preferred. - Thanks - Joe

All ready to go. 22" Stumpjumper Team. Stuck seatpost I dont have time to address
Willing to trade frames for something interesting in the 54-56cm size
Diamond road frames, touring, or an aluminum lightweight beach cruiser frame preferrably geared out back. I regret selling my Trek Calypso.

I have this late '60's PX10 which I love but I have come to terms that the frame is just to large for me. It is 63cm and I put on drilled Campy brake levers since the Mafac levers were missing when I came upon it. It has been cleaned up, new cables and housing and new handlebar tape. I just want someone to enjoy this bike since I can't. I am looking for a 56-58cm PX10 or other comparable ride.

Some PB blaster and a gear puller or a large pry bar and hammer will solve your problem.

I prefer an automotive "pickle fork". That plus a few taps with a hammer.

I have a 23 inch (57cm) Atala Super Record Professional frame from 1969. I believe it is Columbus SL frame (weight and helical reinforcements in steerer fork confirm this). Top tube is 57 cm as well.

Looking for something interesting in 58-61 cm.

I have a 17" 94 or 95 Trek 750 Multitrack. Full True Temper OX Wisconsin steel frame and fork only.

Nice, lively hybrid. This is tig welded and has 43cm chainstays, 135mm vertical dropouts and lots of eyelets including lowriders on fork. 68mm bb shell, bottom pull routing, takes a 1" fork.

Has a Kansas State student sticker on it and a few paint chips but paint is surprisingly glossy and the frame has no dents or dings.

Things I need:
road or mountain triple crankset in 165 (modern preferred)
leather saddle

Ok, I've ended up with all these frame that don't fit or won't do what I want them to do.
Looking for a 19''-20" early 90s (some exceptions) MTB frame and fork with eyelets/rack mounts preferably.mid-high end stuff. (Schwinn Cimarron or an MB1 top my list)

16" GT richter, NOS with stem. Missing the replaceable hangar though.




16" Rockhopper ultra f/f seat post


Also this Ti Tomac frame, yet another 16"!!

Have a 2000 schwinn homegrown factory.
17"
Anodized black
built in the US
2.8 lbs
Comes with headset and seatpost clamp
The original Rock Show Judy is gone but I can include a rigid fork at no cost

Looking for.something comparable but in 15" otherwise vintage quality road frames in 52" always put a smile on my face. Preferably something Italian or maybe a nice touring frame/fork
