dunno where it is, unless they sell old stock on the internet themselves, maybe it's just someone who has it privately, it is held in Melbourne so it could be at the store. It's a yellow frame, 58cm, maybe it is them.Originally Posted by 531Aussie

e-bay (sshhhh!), trying to find out what the tubing is - i sent off a few questions to the seller last night.
Hmmm, that's an oldish one (it's got the old stickers) that looks familiar
Those frames are on the chunky side, and those forks are VERY heavy
I'm pretty sure it won't be light

Yeah....he was on in his capacity as a DS at Davitamon-Lotto for the Ronde. They had Dave Macca the other night as an aussie giro stage winner.

Looks like 95% of the Adelaide version comes from Melbourne, including Sundee nights

Just bought my first set of Vredestein TriComps yesterday........not bad.
They actually measure closer to 22 wide by about 21 deep, and they seem MUCH harder at 100psi than others

could be red now...it's nearly 10 years since I bought em. Greg Griffiths used to backdoor 'em for me when I was at TFM. About 50 clams each.
Can you buy Paribas in Australia anymore?? JFK had some for a while...

Sounds like he's in a wardrobe with a doona over his head and an 2 Explorer socks over the microphone.
They now come in heaps of colours

I did see some Paribas down there a while ago, but he's now obsessed with "Speeds".
He's got 100s of them

heavy is OK (although it's listed as light weight steel), I am switching from a 531 steel 80's road frame so it can't be much heavier than that. It's more the geometry and size I'm updating. Plus I need 130mm dropouts which my current frame hasn't got. I did ask what it weighted so I'll see what the response is tonight.Originally Posted by 531Aussie
