If the seat clamp area is damaged its just more of an excuse to tack on a standing platform

Can't believe you have snagged that for £75 Clint

Great buy mate

I saw that one from Alan's, wasn't worth the money with all the damage and money needed to spend on it.

Didn't know how much it was up for, but someone bought it. I only found out about some of the clearance stuff last Friday evening. Went to have a look on Saturday. Not much left that was any good tbh. Bought a few magazines, (bi weekly, BMX Action bike) but that was all..

I never went in buy got sent a bunch of photos of some stuff.

The problem with a frame like that is it'll cost a minimum of £100 for repairs, plus £40 post, £100 new paint, £30 decals. So all in it'll be around £520 with the initial cost for a repaired frame that probably won't be heat treated.
You'll get a nice original finish for money not far off that.

'79 Ripper, no serial number as mentioned. Should have the birthday of the first person who bought it stamped on the bottom bracket though, mine's 11-22-66.

My question - Just bought a 2009ish bike (it's well ratty!) and can't find a serial number anywhere? This normal?

Ta for any info!
