Been looking to get a New Winter frame with Mudguard Eyelets plus it has to be kinda lightweight 7005 aluminium etc -

trouble is i need at least a 63cm Centre to Centre or 25inch frame in old money
any of the Taller riders out there recommend a frame. I Was looking at a Aeron frame
Built By RIDLEY but they are just on the short side. Budget is £400 - £500

Cheers.

    i have a 62 sm ribble winter training frame with itm carbon for and machined alu post and headset plus alu bottle cage which i was going to flog on e bay next week.metallic navy blue was built as a bike for 2 dry 40 mile rides in 2006 then taken apart for its gruppo. It has been dry stored since then but has acquire a of deep scratches (no dents) whilst in the garage. The whole lot would costabout £460 from ribble new. Im after £160. 580 mm top tube. Traditional shape. P.m me if interested.

    I'm 6'5" and ride a 64cm Kinesis TK in the winter. I have a few spacers and a positive stem angle to get the bars high enough but it's a comfy ride.
