Samson Illusion frame that I just got and rode a lot, but sadly a hairline fracture in the top lug had forced me to take the frame off the road. Headtube was replaced previously, but interior of frame is absolutely fine. Rad frame, Japanese built njs with Columbus tubing and insanely good riding. This frame is an absolute shredder in the streets. 56 ST and TT

Asking $150. Get the lug repaired and repainted and be the proud owner of a rad njs bike. Item is located in Santa Cruz but I’ll be in LA next week if you want to meet up. Happy to ship within the US at buyer’s expense.

just to get clarification...
so you have a samson frame that has had the headtube replaced prior to you owning it, and during the time you were riding it, said replacement headtube developed a hairline crack.

also, what size?

Yep, that's the timeline, but the headtube isn't what developed the crack, it's the upper lug. The headtube underneath is solid, but the actual casing of the lug has the crack. Definitely wish it could've lasted longer for me, but it just wasn't meant to be. And my bad, it's a 56 ST and TT.

This is still for sale? I lost all hope when you put on it's PR page that you no longer had it!

My Pre-Cursa is up for sale, so i'll let you know when it's sold!
