Are there any bargains to be had at the moment?

I've enough bits to build a cheap bike to leave at my work, just need a cheap frame (available in XL 20/21")

Suggestions gratefully received, would consider secondhand if anyone has anything.

How cheap? I have an XL Chameleon that I'd be tempted to part with, but it's a good un... US built pre-EBB, can be run geared or singlespeed...

I have a pretty mint XL Kona Hoss Deluxe frame that i've just split down which is sitting in the garage.

Depending on what you mean by 'cheap' i'd be happy to let it go.

Email in profile if it's of any interest.

All terrain cycles is correct, that looks a good option...

Shibboleth, how much for the chameleon?

£50 for the Handsome Dog in Woody2000's link above fits the bill surely. That is a bargain.

EDIT Woody beat me to it

Ah, fair do's. Didn't realise they were so cheap to begin with! Doesn't look so much of a bargain now 🙂

Don't forget to add the current statutory charge of 2 x £15 in 02 vouchers though! 😉

I'd be after £90 posted (less if collected obviously).

Apart from a few stone chips (which happened before i put heli tape over it) it's in lovely condition. I only ever ran it singlespeed so no cable rub (and i didn't ride it a huge amount).

No pics to hand but if you log in to Ebay and do an advanced search for kona hoss deluxe and include completed listings you'll see the full ebay ad.

Had a Dirty Joe Semi Creme built up as a rigid singlespeed commuter/rag bike and it was glorious, highly recommended. Would buy again. A+. 10/10.

My wife has a Dirty Jo Full Creme. Amazing bargain, the frame is absolutely lovely. Got it from Triple Butted Cycling too.
