This one I got ripped off on and the guy promised that the frame was in great shape. Came in a box with no wrapping what so ever and half opened.
I threw everything away since there was nothing of any use. Each piece was trashed; wheels, stem, bars, even simplex seat post dented and useless.
The Frame "looked" fine for a minute and I was happy that at least something was OK until I saw that some idiot broke and rebrazed the rear drop out.
So this is one dead team pro bike. If someone in the Paris area wants a
frame to trade for something then contact me. If not, then take it for free and convert into a fixie, The front forks are fine.

Dan,
That's too bad... 
The original picture looked salvageable. 
I ran across a bike like that in the 70s. Didn't see the problems until I got it home. Almost nothing was usable on a decent bike.  |

my team pro frame has had a repair on the same drop out.
seems to be a common theme with these frames
ps what size frame is it?
if you decided to split maybe interested in the forks |
