Bikes: 1940s Fothergill, 1959 Allegro Special, 1963? Claud Butler Olympic Sprint, Lambert 'Clubman', 1974 Fuji "the Ace", 1976 Holdsworth 650b conversion rando bike, 1983 Trek 720 tourer, 1984 Counterpoint Opus II, 1993 Basso Gap, 2010 Downtube 8h, and...

I guess with a Pinarello or the like, your chances are fair.

I'd gladly trade my Norman, with its 55 cm frame, for a bigger one; but the odds of finding another one (let alone in the same condition) are practically nil.

The same goes for my Counterpoint Opus II; it has a 54 cm seat tube, and I'd prefer a 60. I don't know the odds of finding another one, but I won't be betting on it.

All that said, do love the idea!
