Let me elaborate on what i mean by similar to a 1985 Trek 600 22.5". * High quality steel frame or complete steel frame bike * 56--58 cm seat tube * Light frame and fork weighing a total of at most 2450 g; for comparison my old 1985 Trek 600 22.5" frame and fork weighed 2250 g; so most likely the frame will be all Reynolds 531/531CS/531C or Columbus Tenax/SL; i weigh 67 kg * Chain stays at least 42 cm long * Preferably eyelets on the front and rear for mounting mudguards * BB drop of at most 72 mm so that the 650B conversion will work OK * Cantilever brakes are OK. I know a local frame builder who can move the bosses down to 650B.
Thanks.
