So now that I know a little bit more about what I bought ... I bought this bike primarily for the parts on it ... It's a beautiful bike, but way, way, way too big for me; so I'm hoping one of you guys will give it a home where it will be appreciated.

Ron Stout frame/fork. 65cm seat tube C-T. 60cm top tube C-C. Reynolds 531. Serial number 9281, which I'm beginning to think means it was the 92nd frame built in 1981. It's definitely a late 1970s or early 1980s frame.

Metallic green paint, in excellent condition with very few chips. 120mm rear spacing (for 5/6 speed freewheel hubs). Built for 27" wheels but may fit 700c with standard reach brakes with a 57mm reach, requires a nutted brakeset, not recessed.

Will fit 700c wheels with the Diacompe Mod. 610 centerpull brakes available from Rivendell (see http://rivendellbicycles.com/webalog/brakes/15111.html).

For those who care, it is built with Prugnat lugs, a Gargatte bottom bracket shell, and Cinelli fork crown. Campagnolo dropouts front/rear with fender eyelets.

Includes Campagnolo Nuovo Record ("Patent Campagnolo") headset.

Would make a great fixed-gear conversion for the tall rider, or would be a good way for the taller rider to get a nice vintage handbuilt frame/fork.

You know there weren't many classic frames built this size.

Pics available on request.

$250 shipped via FedEx Ground within the lower 48.
