Hi Zouo,
Might be interested in this, do you know the weight of the bike roughly? Might give an idea as to tubing, but I suppose it's some sort of light weight steel (531 or similar)? Any markings on the dropouts and any idea of the year? -

I can go weigh it if you want although it's not especially light compared to modern components.
As for the frame steel. I can't say as I don't know. The frame has been well built with attention to detail, geometry, Zeus pista dropouts, track specific fork crown, wraparound seat stays. There is a frame number so whoever buys it can do the research as I found out nothing.

My less than accurate TKMaxx luggage scales have it at about 8.7kg

Damn this looks great, if you would consider splitting id have the frame off you asap

If it comes to that I'll let you know.

I hope you don't have to split it, but I'd be interested in the stem and pedals if it comes to that. Thanks

Maybe you should all get together and buy it? Might be more cost effective.....
Need to find room for the kid's bikes as they are getting bigger and unfortunately this has to go as it isn't getting ridden: £475

Frame: Henry Burton 54cm (54 c-c top tube x 54 c-c seat tube) track frame un-drilled frame and forks. I contacted Henry Burton but they don't have any records on their frames so didn't find out anything. The frame has no dents or dings but has usual wear and tear. The decals are starting to go as they weren't under the clear coat. The geo is quite aggressive/twitchy handling and you won't find clearance for more than a 23mm tyre on the front but up to a 28mm on the back. No idea what tubing but there's an 'ironic' 531 awesome sticker on there which I stuck on for giggles.
Spec:
Wheelset, 28 hole Campagnolo Record hubs laces to Mavic Open4CD. Hubs were rebuilt with new axles/bearings/cups and brass washers used on spoke eyelets and rims were NOS.

Stem: Nitto Jaguar 90 NJS
Drops: Nitto B123 steel 40cm NJS
Seatpost: Campagnolo C-Record 'non-aero' Seatpost

Chainring: Sugino
Bottom Bracket: Phil Wood. (Chainline is perfect and drivetrain near silent)
Pedals: MKS Royal Nuevo NJS (some road rash), MKS steel clips, MKS Alpha double straps NJS
I feel like I've missed something out.....but I guess that covers it.
I can post but I'd really rather not post as I've had too much stuff get broken in transit.
Otherwise collection from Northampton and I am can drop it off at either Northampton or Rugby train stations. Bikes do not need to be booked on the Northampton line if travelling to London or Birmingham.
