Sell frame.
How much did it cost you to chrome the forks ?
Since frame to small why make that investment ?

I was told the bike was a 58cm when i bought it, got it home and stripped it down, the forks had been spray painted silver to cover the pitting on the chrome, and it is a 57cm. It was $65 to have the forks re-chromed and I knew it was worth the investment to make them look this nice, and then be able to *hopefully* get my money back.
