Hi, guys this is a Trevor Jarvis 50cm ST, purchased from Deebles as a frame in need of repair, you can see the original listing here.

I have had the repair done to the rear stay, all it needed was re-soldering( a dirty joint) this was carried out by Jake Rusby Cycles, so with the repair done I built the bike up. The bike runs 700/600 so a proper Lo Pro in my opinion the wheels are new old stock, never seen a brake Shimano 105 hubs on Ambrosia Olimpic Champion sprint/tubular rims brand new gatorskin on the rear vittoria junior on the front again brand new
The bike is currently running fixed 20 rear and 52 front I chose to use a SPNK rear adaptor similar to the surly thing but I will include the original rear freewheel and a more modern one for 5/6 and up to 9 speed if you which to change back. As the wheels themselves are excellent quality and can be put back to original as well as the rest of the bike, i.e. gears bullhorns etc.
The bike has been renovated as the 531 R stickers will testify the paint is pretty good apart from the area by the seat tube where the stays meet. I have sanded and polished then put black tape around the paint/bare metal seam then clear coat lacquer to protect the metal.
The Rolls saddle is in good order as is the Cinelli stem the headset is Shimano 105 its ok the plastic sheath at the bottom is broken and therefore not there, although the headset functions fine.
The chain set is Ultegra with a new octolink 102 BB I will include the small chain ring and the bolts, as before so the bike could be used as a tt bike again if you wish. New Miche track chain the bars are generic vela-solo with planet x tape on them pedals not included if I,ve missed something I will add it later
