Argos track/TT lo-pro 753/SLX Dura Ace Headset



Thinking of selling this if anyone is interested. Its pretty unique!
- Custom built Argos track frame built in Reynolds 753 which was later half rebuilt (by Argos) in Columbus SLX to be used in road TTs.
- So it has a dérailleur hanger, internal cable routing and is drilled front and back.
- Front 650c bladed aero forks - these are super sexy.
- Horizontal top tube (50.5cm), 58 cm seat tube. Bottom bracket height is 29cm. This is not for the taller rider, I reckon it would suit someone who normally rides a 53cm regular frame.
- Would come with a Dura Ace headset and brand new Shimano 107mm bottom bracket.
- Paint has a few chips and scratches but no damage to frame.

Ask any question and pop me a PM is you are interested in buying.

Taking offers around £250.

Its a beautiful frame, would make a great, light build. Especially nice is the quality argos paint work. Some one should snap this up quick.

Here's an idea of it built up, ignore the seat post, I couldn't find a 27.2 to put in it so just balanced something precariously.

Dammit - with a long enough stem, though it would be small for you. I''d probably recommend it for someone who rides a smaller frame, unless you want to ride something small....

DB - Yeah will do... I wanted to leave it off for a while to see if anybody was interested first.

Offers near £280 are fine...

I'm not sure about getting bikes from Argos...
I'm a fan of Elizabeth Duke jewelry, but a track frame!?
