For Sale: Claud Butler Sovereign 531 Touring Frame 57cm

Hi,

For sale I have a Claud Butler Sovereign touring F&F, originally built in the 80s. Bought it about a year ago off ebay and had it as my main bike. I will include a picture of it built up so you can see the geometry.

-Built with Reynolds 531 tubing
-Seattube is 57cm
-English threading
-26.4mm seatpost
-Comes with headset and BB as well as a suntour cable guide
-Designed and handcrafted by Holdsworthy

I had not problems when I was riding the frame. Condition wise, there are not dents that I could find. There are a lot of scratches, especially on the seat stays (according to owner, was mainly caused while attached to the back of a car), see additional pictures for details. Both the BB and headset will need servicing or replacing as both do not run smoothly. Some damage to the paintwork where the front mech and DT shifters where positioned.

I can throw in a rear mudguard and rear pannier for free if wanted.

£60 ----> SOLD

Based near Coventry if anyone wants to collect. Will post anywhere in the UK.

Hi mate,

Interested in this and can collect end of the month if it hasn't been taken by then.

keepitmencap, I'll send you a message if I still have it at the end of the month

Nice one. It didn't load yesterday for whatever reason.

I think this frame is very similar to the Mistral from Holdsworth.
Even though my Mistral has long pointy lugs and the pointy point fade into the tube
