Is there anything wrong with this frame?

I'm very tempted. TBH I can't see much wrong with it for £80 (About $155-160)

Answer 1

Can you make the cable guide usable, a problem with the aluminum frame and part. The head tube looks pretty mucked up too. If you can take care of those problems it's worth more like 40 quid.

Personally, I wouldn't buy anything carbon and aluminum used and sight unseen. Knowing the guy is replacing the frame is another reason to be cautious. I wonder if he did some carbon fiber repair work or which way he tried twisting the nuts when he took it apart.

Answer 2

Do NOT consider it!

The problem he is explaining is not something that can be sorted. It is a permanent problem that can't be overcome.

Answer 3

I can not see anything wrong with it other than what the seller said about the gear cable routing hole, but the same thing happened to my bike about 3 years ago and has not caused any problems, as you can fit it with a spacer.  The only downfall to not getting it repaired is you will lose the quick on road adjustments that it is designed for.
