FS: 65cm A Homer Hilsen (Waterford) F/F/HS

[scott minor]

65cm A Homer Wilson frame / fork / headset for sale.  Rides straight and true, has a few nicks and scratches from riding but presents itself well.  No dings or anything.  I bought this from a trusted list member a while back and have enjoyed it very much.  I'm selling to make way for a custom that will take its place.  I've attached pics showing a couple iterations of how I had it set up.  Frame / fork will be professionally packed by my LBS at no charge to buyer.  $1150 + bikeflights shipping from TN.  Also available for pickup at my LBS.  

Thanks!  -Scott

Great bike at a great price! Love the builds Scott.

Not to hijack the thread, but what’s the custom going to be?

Reid in Austin (who once owned this Homer, sold it, and has since bought another 65 Homer after seeing the error of his ways)

Hey Scott,

Lovely bike. Any idea what year this frame was made? What is your PBH for that seat setup? Thanks.

John

Reid, thanks for the good word. I’m living on the other side of the pond now and getting a custom from a small builder in France who is semi-local.

John, I’m not sure of the year but determined that it’s a waterford frame at one point, and probably an early-ish one seeing how it has a single top tube, not double like the more recent ones from waterford. There’s some useful sales literature on the cyclofiend site and the geometry of this frame matches those specs. My PBH is 95, saddle height is 84cm.

Reid, To be more specific, the custom replacing the Homer is a Brevet, out of Bourgogne, France.

Also, just to assure any interested parties, though I live in Europe now, my Homer is in the good hands of my lovely friends at my previous hometown LBS, Tennessee Valley Bicycles in Knoxville. After moving a couple months ago, they packed up the AHH for me to ship to Europe but since then I have decided to put that considerable amount of shipping money towards a custom instead.

Homer is spoken for, pending payment.

Thanks all! -Scott

Homer is still available!  

Also, I'm open to selling as a complete or partial build if anyone is interested.
