Heavier mild carbon steel. French, which may lead to bb issues. Basic bike-boom bike. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=300302803921 Fillet brazed cro.moly. Looks to be a one-piece-crank, I'd stay away. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=160324702958 Awesome bike, Reynolds 531.. I wouldn't even think about converting it though, although it does look pretty beat to hell. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=190296335035 Not bad. Would make a decent conversion. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=190296388885 I'd go with this before converting a bike like the ones above... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=180341312512 Not bad, I'd keep it intact as-is though. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=180341681157 This is the one I would go with for a grocery hauler. Set up for cantilevers, racks, bottles, etc. |
Also, posting your ebay finds on here is a bad idea... lots of people looking for frames.
