FS: Classic Specialized Expedition Touring frame 58cm

[ViveLemond]

Hi,

I thought it was worth posting this here. Classic specialized Expedition frame from the 80's. Could be a great 650B conversion frame.

These are considered some of the finest production Japanese touring frames ever made. I showed it to Grant Petersen once who said I should cherish it forever.

ST: 57 ctc, 58 c-to-top. Top tube: 56cm ctc.

Comes with Chris King headset.

Also: I'll throw in (if you'd like them):

1.  the rear rack that came with it, along with a very nice set of touring panniers I bought in France in the early 90's and never used.

2. Some brand new Pasela 700c tires (non-Tourgard). 2 at 32mm, 2 at 35mm.

I'm selling it to free up some space in the garage and I simply don't need a touring bike at this point.

I bought it in the late 90's and it has seen limited use, always stored inside.

It has been repainted (see photo). I treated it with Framesaver when I bought it.

It's in very good shape, with some scratches and dings from travel and the chain.

There is one scratch/dent on the seat tube (see photo) that must have come from the bike falling into a table or something. It can't possibly have any effect on the ride or safety of the frame.

I'm in the East Bay (near Berkeley, CA), for pick up. I can ask LBS to ship.

Asking $250 pickup, $300 shipped (or whatever shipping is on top of $250).
