Title: Look what I found on EBay!
Post by: bikerta on March 24, 2014, 10:19:51 PM

Does this bike look similar to something we have seen on this forum very recently?

There's a gun metal frame over on the ctc forum too. Asking £300 I think.

Looks like you get free chips and scratchings with it too!      ::)  Sorry, mis-read the scratches for scratchings (Lol! )

I think yours is 10 times better Jags.

Re CTC frame. A close up photo of the BB would have been nice.

Hello,
Yes very similar! I sold my frame to 'jags' because after a year of searching I found it but it was too small. The one on Ebay is too big (its a 565L) I require one inbetween, a 550S.
The one I sold is over in Ireland and so will never need washing because it rains so much over there............ ;D
Best regards,
John
