FS - 60 Orange Quickbeam

[Sean Steinle]

Reposting with the correct size in the title, I've since discovered Riv uses (used?) C-T for their frame sizes. 

I've decided to go a different direction mid-build. This one is well used, but no dents or dings. Took pics of a couple spots of missing paint, but the paint has wear all over the bike. I can take more pics if needed. I have a brand new set of QB decals and headbadge, so this is a perfect candidate for a new paint job!

Measures 58cm from the center of the crank bolt to the center of the top tube, 60cm C-T.

I'm offering this in a choose your own flavor fashion. As pictured it's a total hodge podge. The crank is a VO Grand Cru double that has the inner ring taken off. The front wheel is a vintage Trek take-off, 36h, nothing special wheel.

The rear is the star of the show. 32h Phil flip flop hub, 16-18 WI dos eno one side and  Surly 17-20 Dingle on the other. Currently laced to a Mavic Open Pro, but has hairline cracks on a few of the nipples. 

I'm keeping the pedals, saddle, and seatpost. Cockpit is currently Nitto Deluxe w/ Noodles. I've got other parts in my parts bin.

 

Frame/Fork/Headset/BB price - $800 + shipping from Lawrence, KS. 

If you want parts, we'll put together a package and work on a price.

Nice price for a nice frame. Did you or a previous owner have it painted orange? Well, I guess, since IIRC, orange was not OEM, right?

What is the top tube length on a 58/60 frame?

If I didn’t have one I would buy this. Such a great bike.

Orange was factory, they ran between the green and silver. http://www.cyclofiend.com/rbw/quickbeam/index.html

I'm quite confident now that this is a 60, and the TT measures at 58 C-C on the 60cm. I know it's factory paint because I can still see/feel the decal lines. I think someone 'de-Rived' it for anti-theft reasons, perhaps?

I'm looking for a Quickbeam but think I'm more of a 62cm.  Whats your PBH and how does this fit?  Do you know the saddle height of the pictures?

[Sean Steinle]

Ok this QB is pending now, but to answer your question saddle height in the picture is 73cm to top of the saddle in the middle (directly in line with seatpost). I have no idea on fit because I never built it up, although I suspect for a more traditional drop bar fit, it's too large for me, one of the reasons I'm selling it.

I have a green 58 cm that fits me perfectly (but I may sell it).  When that orange 60 was in my possession the top tube was in my crotch.  For reference, I go through life as a medium with a 32ish" inseam.
