Just collected a bike to commute on, and it's rather nice for £50
Just wonder who might have built it 482982. Just seems quite fancy for a el cheapo off the peg. I know the seatpost is 26.8
I'm not sure how good an idea this is. It's a 64 Claud Butler Olympic Path. Just want to avoid that paintjob on wheels look. I'm guessing there's a recommended way of 'not making it worse'
I have a very nice unknown frame that I'll never identify. 531 professional, 531 butted chrome forks added later with the frame number etched by hand. Long spearpoint heart cut out Prugnat lugs. Seat collar is threaded. Campagnolo drop outs f&r.
Mid 80s.
I'd like it decaled up.
I guess a shop...
just got this unmarked frame.
531 butted. Looks like a sequential serial number 10007. Fork matches though a W is etched next to it on the forks. Campagnolo front and rear dropouts, the rear is a portacatena type. Heart cut out Prugnat lugs. The seat lug is threaded, so no nut required. 126mmm...
Looks like 110007 or 10007, but it's stamped into a recess, which seems like a mass produced approach?
Reynolds 531db, mid 80s. All decals removed, 531 transfer on downtube near shifters. Looks like holdsworth colour
Inverted the fork...thanks for the idea.
Bit of carpet on the concrete, and stood on the frame.
One bounce and it was done. Checked with a line.
Seems good to me.
