FS: Platypus 60cm - Choose Your Own Adventure
This frame is a quick catch and release from another list member in efforts to thin the stable. This one just wasn’t for me!
Selling this as rolling chassis, frame/fork or complete with some options. In excellent condition, one small ding in paint on top tube (pictured).

Really flexible on sale/builds here. Let me know what you’re thinking and I should be able to make it happen. Light and rear rack not included!
Important details for the discerning buyer:
- Steerer is cut for a CK Grip Nut headset. No room for spacers.
- Rear hub is 130 spaced. QR is keeping dropouts sprung set. (low miles in this config)
- Drive side spokes are black and non-drive are silver due to sourcing issues. Same spokes though!
