FS: Keith Anderson Frameset 57cm - Fillet Brazed Columbus EL
Picked this up to try out a smaller frame size and it is just too small and a frame this nice deserves to be ridden. Measures 57 cm square CTC, 59 cm ctt on the seat tube with a 14.5 cm headtube.
Beautifully fillet brazed by Kieth Anderson in Oregon and painted by his wife Julie in a beautiful metallic red. In addition to the fluid fillets, there here are a bunch of nice touches like the Henry James dropouts, Columbine chain holder, brazed on head tube badge.
The frame is structurally 100% sound with no dings or dents and good threads. There are a few small paint chips throughout on places like the chain stays and top tube, and one chunk that on the right fork end from a cludgy QR it looks like, but all will touch up easily. The frame takes a 26.5mm crown race, 28.6 seatpost clamp (one included) and 27.2mm seatpost and the bottom bracket is British threaded.
Not sure where to price this at, but I'll start at$525 NOW $old pending funds shipped CONUS obo, buyer pays paypal fees if so desired. Please see the album for more photos/details and don;t hesitate to reach out if there is anything I missed. Cheers!

I have a really nice Dura Ace group that would look swell on this.
Will it take 28's?

Just did a test fit with 32mm Gravelkings on 700c Velocity Aeroheads and had plenty of clearance in the rear, and just barely rubbed the fork crown, so 28mm tires should fit with ease....

Please note that Keith Anderson is no longer making frames, so it's not like you can order one from him any longer.
Great frame, if it fits you...get it!
