For trade:

Trek Elance 400 frameset. 60cm ctr-ctr seat tube. 57.5cm ctr-ctr top tube. I picked this bike up two days ago. It is dent, impression, gouge and crack free. Straight too. Rides and tracks like a dream- very fast. It has a very light Reynolds 531 frame in really nice shape overall outside of the usual paint chips in some areas. Dark blue with silver accents on the lug inlays and head tube.

One catch, the SR LaPrade seatpost is currently stuck. I haven't tried anything yet other than letting it soak in penetrant from both directions with the binder bolt removed. I'm working on it, taking time and great care but will get it out. Or I can leave it to you

I'd like to trade for a quality lugged steel frame in the 57cm ctr-ctr realm. Plus or minus one cm either direction. No dents, cracks or impressions that aren't supposed to be there in your trade offer please. Stuck seatpost fine.
