Have: 1997 58cm Waterford 1100 frame, no fork. Reynolds 531 tubing. Bike had a previous life as a commuter and as such has plenty of chips, paint bubbling and surface rust. I do not spot any deep rust anywhere. There is only one tiny almost imperceptible very shallow 1/4" line-shaped ding in the seat tube (circled in the last photo). I would recommend stripping and repainting the frame, but it could be a good "5 footer" with some extensive touchup.

Fork wants: Hunter Supercrown
Road Wants: 59-62cm early Specialized Expedition, Sequoia, or Allez. Possibly something else in that size range, handbuilt, interesting, or cantilever touring with tons of mounting points.
Mountain Wants: 21"-22" Schwinn Cimarron. 20" Kona Hot, Explosif, Sex, A'ha, or old Humu. 21-22" interesting rare 1980s MTBs. 20" interesting rare 1990's MTBs.

I've got a 80's Raleigh DL-1 21" man's frame & fork, parts. I'd like to trade for a woman's loop frame & fork.
Shipping wise, let's keep it to the lower 48.

I have a 54ish, but it is FAR from perfect condition. All cosmetic though, no real dents dings or rust.,,,,BD

I have a 1985 Trek 560 49 cm with a bunch of touch up paint 501 Reynolds. Just the frame. I'd like to get something 56-58 cm that is similar in style and materials.

Hello all-

I wanted to take a moment to update this posting...

The 1984 Trek 830 and the 1983 Gran Turismo are gone but I still have the Trek 950 as well as the Nishiki Ariel.

Thanks for the interest!

Hey, are the trek 950 or nishiki still available?

neo_pop_71 03-22-14 04:03 AM

The Nishiki Ariel is available

Hello winstonb,

Thanks for the interest in the frames! The Trek 950 has a new home with a forum member, however the 1988 Nishiki Ariel is still available. The Ariel was second in hierarchy behind the Alien, the Ariel's frame and fork are full double butted Tange 4130 CrMo. The frame has no structural damage, no repair nor rust issues, only cosmetic flaws that are consistent with age (see photos).

Please let me know if you have any question, thanks again!

Best regards,

-D-

'86 Miyata Seven-ten frame & fork, 48cm cc, HS, BB, & other parts if desired, swap for similar light-weight F&F, HS, BB, in 56-57cm. Frame is triple-butted, light & stiff, upright geometry, marketed as a Triathlon bike.

Mother's Day is only about 6 weeks away, treat Mom right with this Columbus SL SP frame. Or maybe you want to give your wife a ride? I mean on a bike!

I have multiple road bikes in 531, 501, Tange 2, Tru-Temper, 6061 aluminum, Columbus Tenax, Champion, unbranded chromoly, all in 56-58cm. But the only Columbus SL in 57-58cm is my Serotta. But I have this to trade, 1984 Schwinn frame, fork & headset, 49cm. No rust, not used much from what I can tell looking at the components, scratches from poor storage practice.

Have: Concorde frame, Columbus SL, lot's of paint nicks and a big rust spot on the chainstay. Not too great condition but perfect for a FG conversion, or, if you're feeling ambitious, a respray project. 58 cc 57 cc. Looking for something cool to make a SSMTB off: frame only no problem, as long as it has dropouts that can handle SS, and canti posts.

What size are you looking for? I have various Trek, a GT, Mongoose, Specialized Hardrock, and Bridgestone MB-5. They're all chromoly and range from 17"-20" seat tube.

Thanks for your reply oddjob, somewhere around medium, I guess 17-18"? I've made 20 fit before just fine, so it really depends more on the geometry and the rear dropouts,

Maruishi Road Ace 7. 61cm frame, trade for a 57-58cm frame. Looking for a touring, or relaxed geometry frame.

This bike is too big for me. I have ridden it hard for a few years, my daily commuter plus about 5000 miles of loaded touring. It's too big and I am finally fed up with it. I would like to trade it for a 57 or 58cm frame. I would like something that I can tour on, as I have another commuter now.

The paint is pretty beat, the underside of the downtube is the worst, from touring without using fenders. The frame is structurally sound. The headset is pretty worn out and probably should be replaced. Although it might only need to be cleaned/adjusted, it's a $10 headset.

I will be stripping all the parts off and only getting rid of the frame, fork and headset. I would clean it up before shipping it to anyone, but the paint is not going to look pretty. The "Road Ace 7" decals on the top tube are worn off from me not being tall enough to throw my leg over the tube.

The frame is triple butted lugged cro-moly, the fork says Ishiwata on it so I can only assume it's an Ishiwata frame as well. I think this was a highish-end frame, I think from 1986.

Funny, I came across this trying to research my new (to me) Maruishi. I bought your frame!

Have: 53 cm ctc Miyata 1000
Want: 55-57 cm ctc touring frame with of comparable quality.

Sorry for the wacky formatting. Not sure why it's doing that. Looks fine on my doc viewer. Any suggestions on how to fix it?

My 23" 1955 Rudge Galaxy 3 speed is too big. I'd like another 21" road bike (triple preferred). I'm in western NY.

I've got this 54cm Quattro Assi frame, looking to trade straight across for something similar in value. I would even trade down a bit, if you even it out somehow. I need a 52cm. Not picky on material, but steel is a plus. Beer not included, but cranks, Chris King headset and seat post could be... I have it currently built up with a bunch of nice parts (ultegra RD, Shimano 105 shifters, etc...) and would trade it complete too...

I have held on to this for a couple of years, but it does not fit me. So it is time to pass it on. A Fuji Finest from 1976 - 52-53 cm seat tube, 54 cm top tube. This includes the frame and fork with headset cups. It was very rough when I got it, but some of it has been bathed in OA (it really needs the kiddie pool treatment). The photos are pre-treatment, so it looks better than the pix. I am looking to trade for something similar. I would prefer not to ship - I live near the Eastern Shore MD/DE/VA beaches, so if you frequent these places, we could meet and swap.

I also have most of the little clamp on stops, clamps, and etc. I would trade for a similar frame & fork in the 57 -61 cm range.

60cm Miyata 912
 
GOT: A recently picked up an 1983 Miyata 912. Double butted miyata CrMo. 60cm, 56.5 top-tube (per Miyata Catalogs). Paint isn't great, definitely a rider not a collector. Available as a frameset & headset & seatpost OR with additional odds and ends. (Including a higher end wheelset than I need: Superbe Pro hubs laced to Mavic OPEN 4CDs). Prefer local exchange in the front range of Colorado but can be talked into shipping.

http://images.craigslist.org/01414_h...OH_600x450.jpg

LOOKING:
Option 1) Something of similar quality, 59-62cm and less aggressive geometry. (The 912 is 73/74). Plan is for a more upright townie which the 912 isn't ideally suited for.
Option 2) Something of similar quality, 53-56cm. To build a commuter for the better half. Vintage high-end rigid MTBs cool too.

Looking for Low Trail Trek (Frame and Fork Trade)
 
Have:

1983 Trek 600 24" Stuck in a time machine, 9 out of a 10 condition

1985 Trek 660 24" cosmetic 6 out of 10

197? (early) UO 8 with threaded parts included 4 out of 10

198? Trek 720 25.5" Every part original but kinda promised to my brother unless you have a brand new 24" 720

Want:

Low trail Trek, all 531 or 531 with 501 stays in rough cosmetic condition 24"

22" Steel MTB 8 out of 10 cosmetic condition

I posted on the Google spread sheet in this thread, I am in So Cal, the best way to reach me is wooba.flores@gmail.com

Cerrig 04-16-14 06:46 PM

Have:

Circa 1978 Roberts Super 25.5 " crit frame full 531 with Campy ends. Uses nutted brakes, 700c wheels, 27.2 post, 126 rear spacing. I have some Campy bits, wheels and a post if you want some parts too. I checked, and transfers are available at H. Lloyd.

Resprayed by previous owner a root beer Imron, it needs another one now. Previous owner also had a front der tab brazed on, and cable guides added to top tube, which are now corroded. If I had time, money and talent I would renovate this to its previous glory, but sadly I don't. Looking for a bit smaller frame, perhaps 24.5? I'm 6'3" and skinny. Something light and saucy, but with eyelets for racks and fenders so I can be a junior path racer if I am feeling spunky. Or a nice 80s/90s mountain bike/frame for a commuter conversion. Or, a nice ladies frame/bike for my 5'4" wife or 5'2" daughter.......surprise me! This needs to move on fairly quicky, I will be doing a basement remodel soon, and extraneous bike detritus needs to be disposed of.

Located in suburban Chicago.
