02 Mar 10 Great Value in a fully lugged steel bike frame: Lincolnshire Poacher

For $399 dollars you get a steel frame that rivals Rivendale frames.  The Lincolnshire Poacher frame is fully lugs. The lugs are ornate and well decorated. There is indeed craftsmanship involved in building this beautiful frame. Add Nitto stem, handlebars, seat post, a crankset, and wheelset and you have a serious long lasting lifetime bike. This bike has horizontal dropouts so it can only be used as a fixed gear or single speed. The tire clearance is upto 38 millimeters so you can add fairly wide tires for city transport.

Here are the specifications:

Fork Offset: 50mm
Headset: 1″ Standard A-Head
Seat post: 26.8mm
Seat post bolt: 8.5mm (NOT INC)
BB: 68mm shell, BSA threading
BB Drop: 77mm
Rear Spacing: 120mm
Brake type: Long Reach Caliper
Tyre Clearance: up to 38mm

You can find the bike on sale at Unreal Cycles.
