Big Frame - for less

[Kosk]

Anybody interested in a 22" 2002 Raleigh m600 frame?

7005 Alum Tubing.
ST:22"
STA:73
HT:6-7/16" w/ cups
HTA:71
TT:23"
CS:16.7"
68mm BB shell
1.25" clamp size

Triple TT routed cable stops plus ziptie braze-ons for full length rear brake housing option.

Stock 51mm rear disc tabs.

Top pull front derailleur.

"Integrated" headset - included (the races are the same as a stock aheadset, but the cups actually sit inside the headtube, instead of above.)

Also comes with the seat post clamp and d-hanger.

I bought this frame specifically to build a commuter (that's why its so huge). Used it for 2.5 summers to get to work, no winter riding, never been built up as a "mountain" bike, street miles only. I've recently switched over to a smaller frame as now I am commuting in the winter. This frame was just a bit too big for the winter, and way to big for me (6'0") to use as a mtn bike.

Great frame, light, stiff, strong, gussetted HT-DT junction. It'd make a great hardtail mtn bike for a bigger guy. $45.

I've got pictures.

Hey Pete -
Any idea what size of seatpost collar this frame uses? I managed to break the one you had on there. Or to ask this another way, what is the best method to determine seatpost collar size?

Holy crap, what did you do? Anyway, I think that was just a stock 27.2mm seat post if I recall, making the front derailluer clamp size a 1.25".....(if I remember correctly). I think that is the stock outer diameter for all 27.2s, so you just need to go to the bike shop and ask for a stock post clamp for a 27.2mm ID / 1.25" OD seat tube. I'd bring the old one with, or the frame itself to make sure it fits.

Holy crap, what did you do?

I got a little "aggressive" tightening it up and stripped the threads on the clamp. Time for a quick-release.... ;) Is there something better (stronger) than a Salsa clamp?
