Well, this one might be a Japanese Bianchi rather than one made in Italy, but I believe @Bianchigirll would probably say that it benefits from the Italian design & geometry. Looks to me like a 53-54, so it might be larger than you need, and it needs a good cleanup and tune up, but if I were in your position, I'd go see it:

Looking to trade my '97 Lemond Maillot Jaune frame for a steel frame in a larger size: 61-64cm. Should be equivalent quality.... road, sport or touring.

I am potentially interested in trading my Lagoon Blue '76 Raleigh Gran Sport frame (I think it's a 22.5) for a 24 inch frame of the same if you happen to have the opposite problem. (I love the colorway a lot). I recently got a new gravel bike, and was properly fitted, and stepping up from 57 to 61 has been a revelation, such that it's kind of hard to adjust up/ride my smaller bikes to an adequate feel now. My RGS frame is pretty clean. The only actual damage, which has been there since at least 2004 when I got the bike, is that someone overclamped a park stand just below the top tube so there are a couple minor indents on the seat tube. You have to look for them a little bit, and they have never had any impact on the ride and haven't affected the frame's integrity in any way that I can discern over the course of 10,000 miles or so. There's a picture of the bike on the Raleigh Gran Sport thread.

"Orient built." Lol, girl - you are so old school.

Bianchigirll 

I just can't remember where it was built. I think Taiwan but it could have been Japan or possibly Singapore, but I think that's a long shot.

Now you wanna hear old school check out a few episodes of Battle 360, where they are talking to flyers and crewmen on the Big E.

Nowadays, most of us would just say its was manufactured in Asia. And I suppose it doesn't apply to objects so much but to refer to people as "orientals" these days is almost a pejorative. Don't want sound too PC, but that's how I understand it.

I have a desire to own another 1987 Schwinn Traveler, in winter mint colour. I let one go to a buddy and caught a few pics I had on the computer and got the urge.

Can anyone help? I could go for a 56 sized one. Frame, fork only if that be possible.

I have quite a few frames available to trade. Let me know!

Thanks BF, 3speedslow

Want - Schwinn Crosscut or Crosspoint 22" frame set. Or 23" Le Tour or other good quality frame for a clydesdale with standover just under 34".

Have available -
-Peugeot P8 60cm frame set it's an 1982 or 1984
-Peugeot Canyon Express 22" frame set with a new set of Tektro U brakes
-2011 Cannondale Trail SL 4 large frame set for 26" wheels - I know it's not C or V but I will never have a use for it. It is a really nice frame that saw very little use. comes with seatpost and clamp, Cane Creek headset, stem and a Deuce suspension fork with lockout. Would trade this one for a nice 700c clydesdale capable wheelset.

Hey! I've got two Miyata's in 60cm, and I'd like to swap either one (or both) for the 57cm size.

1985, 710, triple butted frame, suntour cyclone components

1986 912 Splined triple butted (even the forks!) shimano 600 components

I can swap either full bikes, or just the frame, and I'm in Chicago.
I'm open to comparable bikes but if you've got one of these I'd really like to hear from you!

Got a 24" 1983 Trek 720. Interested in trades, complete, F/F/HS, other configurations:

- slightly larger (25.5") 720, or similar 62-64cm vintage touring bikes of similar quality (1000, Expedition, Pro tour)
- a French/Belgian/Italian higher-end road bike (62-64cm)
- modern 9 or 10sp group of higher quality (and matching wheelset)

Campagnerdo 

I have a 25.5" Trek 620 frame and fork from 1984. I sent you a p.m.

I have an early 80's Saronni frame and fork. 54cm squared, Saronni dropouts. I beleive this is a Columbus SL frame and fork.
Looking to trade for another frame, seat tube 56-57cm and top tube 55-56cm. Thanks..

I have an 84` Club Fuji frame that is 61cm, Fuji Valite tubing, very good condition and can include frame pump. Looking to trade for a 58cm road frame, let me know what you have! For the right trade would also consider including the components with the bike, thanks! SPOKEN FOR

I have this Lemond titanium frame with aluminum fork. It is fast, fast, fast, and so incredibly nimble. It's also very light. It's a 53 cm. I'm enjoying it, but I'm about to put a taller stem on it, since the bike is small for me. If you have something bigger, around 56 cm, give or take, and if you want something this size, let's tawk.

EDIT: I'd like it to be the same weight, approximately, so it would be titanium or a nice Cannondale or the like. Or I guess I would consider carbon fiber.

Just throwing this out there. Very nice Japanese built Shogun. Tange 2. Normal scrapes and nicks but still shows very nice. No rust or dents. Seat tube 57.5 CTC, top tube 56 CTC. Looking for larger sport touring / touring frame 60-62cm. Also XL (22-23 inch) vintage MTBs, or anything interesting.

No rush, no hassle. PM me.

I've got a 63cm 1985 Schwinn Peleton frame with Columbus sl/sp tubing that I would be willing to trade for something interesting around the same size.

Austj42

The frame is a 53cm 86` Cannondale R400, Frame is in dencent shape for its age but it does have some scuffs and scrapes in some areas, cable guides on the top tube are not loose and there is no bubbling in the paint around them. looking to trade for something 56-58 preferably, shoot me a PM if interested, Thanks!

21" Frame. Too small for me. I'd be interested trading for something comparable in 56cm.



EDIT-- This frame has been sold

My wife wants a road bike for her birthday and I want a project. It doesn't need to be epic but should be quality. So I am looking for a 20-21" frame. No dents or bends please but surface rust is ok (id just have it powder coated). I don't have much to trade save a 24" Peugeot UO8 but would pay $ if that's kosher with the thread parameters. Thanks!

what does it cost to ship a frame these days. I recently acquired a beautiful (imo) blue Motobecane Grand Jubilee frame in 62cm. I'd trade it for just about any decent frame in 56cm with reasonably relaxed geometry ... if it didn't cost too much to ship.

Specialized Stumpjumper with purple and teal font. Came with 80mm future-shock "suspension fork," currently has a Surly non-suspension troll fork. Frame has a bit of chain suck (has been clear coated with rustoleum auto rattle-can), otherwise in great shape. Eyelets have been chased, Head tube was faced last week.

Looking for another mountain bike with a horizontal top tube, ideally with 1 1/8 head tube. Prefer Tange Prestige/True Temper OX/Columbus equivalent/Reynolds equivalent.

Sizing: 18"/450mm x 21.6"/550mm

Desired Sizing: 15"/381mm seat tube, 20.5"/520mm top tube.

I'll post proper pictures when there's better lighting.
