This seventies something Zeus, with a 52cm c-c seat tube, is just too small for me. I need a 56cm frame set. Anyone got anything interesting to trade? Note, I do like chrome stays and fork blade ends. Add chrome head tube lugs and we might be able to work something out...
The frame set will include Zeus head set, bottom bracket, freewheel, crank and rings, brake levers.

Do you still have the Peugot Mixte? I REALLY want it and am desperately looking for something to trade. I have family up there in Plattsburgh to pick it up.

I have this 58cm Sekai 2700 that's to big for me. Looking for something comparable in a 53cm or 54cm.

I have a Trek 560 frame-set only in Reynolds 501 — 52 cm c-c. TT maybe longer. I forget so I need to measure again. It has been serviced by a frame-maker — stays and DO's aligned, BB faced and chased. Original paint and decals (repaired and clear coated). PM message sent. Too small for me — but then there is my son and or wife to outfit. I've been looking for a mixte.

1984-5 Peugeot Super Vitus 980, Campy bits, extremely light. It's a 64cm, which is too big. I need something in a 56cm or even 54, preferably a Trek 520 or something with touring geometry and rack/fender mounts. This bike is still all together, all original, and I can't bear to break it down. However, I'm glad to trade either the whole bike or just the frame if someone has something more my speed. I'm in the Atlanta metro but can ship. The quill seatpost goes with it either way, as those are hard to find. This is a cool bike for some giant sasquatch of a human out there. More pics upon request!

I tried this once and didn't find anything but hope springs eternal. I have a 91 Bianchi Ibex mb in the 21.5 inch size that's too big (I'm 5'9" with a 32" inseam). I need a 17.5 or a 19.5 in a Bianchi Ibex, Peregrine, Grizzly etc. It really needs to be 96 or earlier so I can keep my 1" suspension fork but if you have a good frame this isn't an absolute. The paint on my bike is near perfect with just a couple of nicks so I would like something comparable. I'm posting some links to pics of the bike but I'm keeping all the components with the possible exception of the fork as noted above.

Ok, I'll try this on a long shot. I'm really looking for the same frame, just a size larger.
A 1985 Trek 620, 21" (~54cm). Looking for the same in the 22 1/2" frame.
Serial#157820
Built in '84 for the '85 model year.
I was really hoping I could ride this one but don't think I can get the bars tall enough even with a Technomic stem.
There is a slight ding on the top and down tube. I tried to capture them in the photos but it seems you can really only see them when you roll the tube in the light.
Have parts if that will help a trade also.

Looking to obtain a 25-1/2" Raleigh/Carlton Competition GS frame. Paint and chrome condition not an issue, but tubes must be sound. Willing to trade a lesser frame plus parts, cash, or what-have-you.

Got pictures? The Gran Sport is a nice one, and while it wasn't rare, it was less common than the other all-531 models.
