Am looking for a 70cm (center to center) frameset; I have one - the 70cm Panasonic; see my signature under Univega.
Color doesn't matter; shoudl be Reynolds 531 or similar - 4130 steel alloy works.
Fuji makes a Valite frame - has small percentage of vanadium in the steel alloy.
No carbon fibre or aluminum, thanks, Beaverstuff
70cm C to C? Who made those? As someone who rides 63-65cm, I look thru old catalogs and really don't see anything over 68.5cm.
- what top tube length is needed? Top tubes are often effectively barely longer than smaller sized frames of the same model.
