WTT / WTB 50-52 frame and fork for daughter
 
So my daughter just said that she would go ride with me if I built her a bike. YES!!!

Now I am looking to see what I can do/get to make it happen. She is 5'5", so I think a 50-52 cm bike is appropriate.

For trade bait I have a Bianchi Limited Frame (60 CTC), a Nashbar CF fork, a Koobi PRS Alpha saddle, wheels (several sets), and maybe some Campy take off stuff that I don't think I will be using.

Let m elbow what you have and either price or trade interest.

I am in Central California (between Fresno and Bakersfield) if that helps.

Thank you for helping me to make this happen.

I have a beat up 52 cm Raleigh Pursuit you can have. Was in a crash so the rear end got tweaked and dropouts are pretty bent.I think it can be saved, though.

I appreciate the offer. It doesn't have to be pretty, but I would like it to be the right size, and a decent quality frame...without any damage (if possible).

I am not looking to trade, but if you have cash we can talk. Mixte or diamond frame.

Have a Schwinn 434 frame, fork, hs, post listed on page 4 (currently) of the C&V for sale section. Might be interested in the fork, wheels, or the Campy stuff. PM if any interest.

I may have something. I'll check tonight.

I have a KHS Flite 500 with a 52cm tt IIRC; Reynolds 520 frame, CF fork, generic 1 1/8" threadless headset. Spray bombed orange (poorly) by me a looooong time ago, but no problems except for a couple of very minor dings on the TT.

I could be interested in a wheelset as a straight up trade. PM if interested and I'll retrieve it from my inlaws barn for pictures and further measurements if necessary.

I am trying to at least do partial trade...to keep price down a little, as I don't know if she is gonna like it or not. But also lookin g for Diamond frame.

if you find a frame and need a fork I have what SEEMS to be a decent Columbus fork that's stamped "52" on the steerer and has campy forged ends. But I don't know a name or its history (and it's rattle-can black). Happy to pass it along for the cost of shipping or if you wait until late August I will be driving thru your area (like 3 Rivers-Lemon Cove)...but not suggesting you wait that long!

I have a white 1972 Peugeot PR 10 frame and fork in a 52 Ctc. This is a nice frame in great condition, main tubes are 531 Reynolds.
I also have a White 72 Peugeot Mixte frame set.

Just as a heads up...I APPRECIATE ALL of the generosity and offers that I have received, it appears as though I may have found a frame and just wanted to give everyone a heads up. Thank you so much. I will be creating a thread about the buildup and the ride once it all starts happening. Again thank you to all.

Here is what the bike looks like right now...the stem and Handlebars will eventually be changed.
