What frame am I looking for?
I've got new project fever. Looking to replace my Surly Cross Check with something more "sporty" but retaining some features. This is what I want:
56-57 seat tube
56-57 top tube
Lugged
Quality/butted steel
2 water bottle mounts
Fender eyelets
Rack mounts
Clearance for 32's (no fenders).
Can't be blasphemous to put modern components on it.
Somewhat easy to find.
Under $300 for the frame set.
This will be my century/CC touring/quick riding bike. Before I settle on a new Soma Stanyan, I figured I'd check vintage first. Any thoughts or suggestions?
