For Sale: Clive Harvey 753 fastback complete bike

Here is my recently acquired Clive Harvey bike, sadly it's for sale because it's just too small.

Clive Harvey was apparently one of the first builders to get a license to built with 753 and the frame is of excellent quality, as you can see from the neat fastback, internal cable routing (done with silver solder), fine spearpoint lugs and campgnolo dropouts. The frame was resprayed at Argos to its current rose, even thought the guy only ever rode it on his turbo, hence the immaculate nature of the frame and parts. You can see from the breaking surface on the front wheel that it's only been ridden on the road once or twice (by me). It's an astonishingly stiff frame.

It's a mix of parts but they're all top quality. The wheels, plus of course the cranks (old Super Record I think), are as nice as you'll see on a bike from this period.

£425? Pretty reasonable for a nearly NOS bike like this I reckon.
