Wanted 1995 M500 2.8 or C600 3.8 in 22" Iceland Green Metallic

I've been trying to hunt one of these two models down for a while, but looking for the XL/22" always makes things difficult. I had an M500, but the downtube had an undisclosed dent that soured the experience, and I foolishly moved it along.

Based in NYC, occasionally visit family in Philly. Happy to work out shipping costs with seller.

I would love to find another 2.8 Series 22" M500 in Iceland Green Metallic to build up as a commuter/bikepacking rig. A 3.8 Series C600, also 22" Iceland Metallic Green, would be welcome but, in my experience, is quite rare.

Alternatively, I'm open to other 22" Mxxx 2.8 Series frames until I can find the M500 I'm after.

Thanks!

Good luck! If I see one I’ll let you know. I feel your pain. I’m 6’2” and I’ve often thought the bicycle world is full of short people. Tall frames aren’t all that common.

I have the same thoughts as you and I am just a touch under 6ft. I feel cramped on every bike I own that isn't an XL, I can alleviate that with longer stems most of the time though. I've lost count on the bikes that were great deals but I didn't purchase because they were too small for me to ride comfortably.
