Size tbc and pics uploading.
Pretty damn light even with the crappy steel rear wheel, no stickers, could be 531, apparently you can tell by checking for a small spike in the bottom of the seat tube by removing the bb. Mix of bits on it, 105 rear mech, campy gran sport front, campy dt shifters, gb stem, weinmann brakes. Frame will need to be repainted. Quality frame, well worth saving even if only to convert to ss. Could easily get it riding again with some air in the tires, possibly a new inner tube, seat and post, and maybe a quick adjustment to the brakes and gears.

Looking for 120 as it is, too much?

I dont think you can tell its 531 like that, that will be a product of design rather than material.

I was a little skeptical, don't trust everything on the internet I guess.

Whatever it is, it's light!

Still have this, got to be worth 100 quid to someone?

Note, it's now in Stratford.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
