Up for sale is my Stanton Switchback next he frame in 16.5inch long (lower standover height, longer reach). Colour is’misty blue’. This is a Reynolds 631 steel frame and is great fun and very capable. I have owned this since new and it has been used and enjoyed, but also well looked after. There are various surface marks over the frame from use, and a couple of areas of cable rub where I missed adding protective tape. There are a couple of deeper scratches on the down tube by the Stanton logo on one side (see photos) which is the most significant area of paint damage, but still not particularly noticeable. Overall the frame is in great shape. Bottom bracket threads are all good. The dropouts are interchangeable – the frame comes with non-boost (142×12) dropouts. The chain stay protection has been on since new, but I have left it there because it works well – it has not been left on to hide anything. This frame has been in use on my second bike, so has not had a huge amount of use. The frame comes with a cane creek 40 headset (bearings still run smooth and crown race also included despite not being pictured), rear axle, seatpost clamp and a Rockshox reverb stealth b1 dropper post with 150mm drop. The seatpost is in good condition and works well, but does have about 5-10mm of the reverb’squish’ that is common in these. I still have the original boxes for the frame, seatpost and headset, and will include these in the sale.
