I had nearly enough parts from uprading other bikes to build a new one. I just needed shifters, headset, RD... and a frame
I have a carbon, a Ti and Alu bikes so I though I'd try and find a steel frame... but I wanted a modern one, with carbon fork and stays... not an easy find. After a couple of months a Jamis Eclipse was listed on ebay... just my size
Here's the pic of the frame as it was listed. The forks had never been used.
