VINTAGE FRAMESETS
(126mm rear, limited to 5-7Spd unless you spread the frame)
49cmST 50cm TT B Carre with bits $300CAD)
Apparently Bernard Carre's workshop built many of the Peugeot professional team bikes. They are quite sought after.
- 126mm spacing 5/6/7Spd
53cmST X54cmTT ctc Restored 70s Reynolds 531 $500CAD/$400 USD
This was a classic regional frame stickered "Clarins" (which it seems was a bike shop in Toulon, France). Since it was a little far gone looks-wise, I asked Noah Rosen of Velocolour in Toronto to spruce it up a bit. What a great job he did.
THIS is what it looked like pre-restoration (which might have been a mistake, but what's done is done.)

- 26mm rear spacing
- 55cm to very top of seattube
- headtube 128mm
54cmST X 56cmTT(ctc) "Evasion" AMR Aero7 tubing repaint $350 ($280 USD)
Another interesting item. This frame is made of Aero 7 Tubes Camus which was a 2nd tier French tube maker (but only in terms of it's profile. These are excellent tubes) The frame has weird ovalized aerodynamic tubing.
- - Repainted by Noah Rosen of Velocolour Toronto
- 56cm to very top of seattube|
- Headtube 129mm
- 126mm rear drop outs.
- Takes a 28mm tire (and possibly up to a 32mm)
56STX56TT early Gios Torino $750
This frame is unlike any we have seen. For years I could not match it to any Gios model that I could find, and so was worried it was a counterfeit.
But it seems very well made, with investment cast Campagnolo dropouts, and the colour is right, Also, it came with excellent top of the line Campagnolo Nuovo Record components. Why would anyone invest in Campy NR on a counterfeit frame?
Finally, I sent photos off to Gios Torino in italy and got this reply (from it appears Alfredo Gios himself, one of the founders): "Dear Sir, The frame seems original but it's one of the first racing frame we made 44 years go (nearly half century!!!). AG How Cool is THAT?
I'll leave the original smooth running Nuovo Record headset and bottom bracket installed - why mess with a good thing? but if you just want the bare frame, let me know and I can remove those 2 bits and adjust the price.
55cm ST (ctc) X 56cm TT Raleigh TEAM Reynolds 531 frame only $400CAD/$320 USD
Don't be fooled by the similar paint scheme. This is NOT the cheap beater bike that Raleigh Canada flooded the market with. This frame came from Europe and was the replica of the Team model. This is quality, not junk.
- 126mm rear spacing
- 57cm to very top of Seattube
- Headtube 145mm
- Takes at least a 28mm tire (and possibly up to a 32mm)
130mm spaced rear dropouts (for modern components 8S+)
52cm(ctc)STX54cm(ctc)TT Silver ALAN $300CAD/$240 USD
Another classic, one of the earliest aluminum frames.

Vintage ALAN 56cmST ctc X56cmTT $300CAD/$240 USD
This would make a great fixie (with tensioner). Another classic. An original ALAN lugged aluminum frame.

Seattube (to Seatpost insert point) 63cm. Toptube 58cm (c-c) Litespeed Titanium by David Lynskey $750 CAD / ~$575 USD
Who doesn't love titanium? This is a classic from the original David Lynksey era of Litespeed. Frameset only (frame and forks)
Optional carbon fork available to replace the original aluminum fork. (+$200)
when considering size, remember that Ti tubes are fatter than steel so C-To this is about 61cm seattube

ST (to SP insert) 62XTT58(c-c) Cadex 980-C early carbon (frameset only) $250/$200 USD
A pretty cool curiosity. Before Giant was Giant they were Cadex. This is an early carbon model with aluminum lugs.
Some corrosion around the lugs. That's just the way it is. Doesn't affect the ride.
Frame only (I was going to finish building this up but got distracted.)

If this was in very good shape it would be worth $600 or more. But it's a little tattered. (some moron covered all the tubes with sticky plastic and removing it took forever and took some small bits of paint off)
Would be ideal for a Pinarello restoration. But is also perfectly ridable now. I was going to build it up myself, but I am too backed up. 126mm spacing currently. It could be spread for 9-11S systems, but that seems a bit of a shame. Would be Eroica ready. |

Interesting frame. This style (an XL frame but with the dropped toptube ) is apparently called "Freuler" geometry after Swiss pro Urs Freuler for whome Colnago created this style). The result is a large frame that is also stiffer.
could stand to be refinished though I have it built up and have been happily riding it. But in Columbus EL tubing, it's probably worth it. |
60cmc-c ST Pottie in Reynolds 753 $500CAD Frame |
ST (to SP insert) 63cmxTT 58 Pottie in Columbus $350 CAD |
